Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1 is shaping up to be an epic season, throwing players headfirst into a Japanese Mythology-themed island complete with powerful Oni Masks and Typhoon Blades. On top of these additions comes a wide range of colorful locations with a whole host of secrets to uncover — with one notable secret allowing players to get their hands on some really good loot.
While patrolling around the island, players may come across Sprites, elemental critters that each serve a different purpose. While Water and Air Sprites are pretty common, and each plays a crucial role in obtaining elemental Boons in Fortnite, Earth Sprites are notably much harder to come by. Here is where to find Earth Sprites in Fortnite, along with what they do.

All Earth Sprite Locations in Fortnite
Earth Sprites have 22 possible spawn locations throughout the Fortnite island, often bordering key points of interest. While each spawn location offers a chance to find an Earth Sprite, the chances are relatively low, as only a few will spawn per game. Some notable locations players can check include:
- The forest west of Flooded Frogs
- Near the purple bush southeast of Twinkle Terrace
- North of the Burd
- South of Brutal Boxcaves
- The hilltop northwest of Shining Span
- The hilltop southeast of Shining Span
Though Water and Wind Sprites will often roam around the areas they inhabit, Earth Sprites will remain put, eliminating the need to chase them down. If players are having trouble locating an Earth Sprite, be on the lookout for lone lanterns when searching for them, as they often indicate a possible Earth Sprite spawn.

How To Trade Items With Earth Sprites
Earth Sprites are unique critters in Fortnite that are primarily used by players to trade items. To trade an item with an Earth Sprite, players can simply approach it and press the Interact Button while having the item they want to trade equipped. The Earth Sprite will then consume the item, chew it, and then spit out another weapon of Legendary rarity.
Earth Sprites are a fantastic way to obtain top-tier weapons in Chapter 6, albeit the items players will receive are completely random. However, players should be cautious not to trade their best weapon, as once done, it cannot be reclaimed once the Earth Sprite consumes it. After trading with an Earth Sprite, players will also need to wait a while before they can trade again.
