Where to Find Gold Sprites in Fortnite
You can reliably find Gold Sprites in Fortnite through the Golden Fishing Spots spread all across the Chapter 7 Season 3 map. The Golden Fishing Spots were added back to the game with the Gone Wild event and are currently the best source for Gold Sprites in the game. However, much like the Gold Sprites themselves, the Golden Fishing Spots are hard to come by. For this, we have attached a handy map below for the best spots to find Gold Sprites on the map:
The spawn rate of Gold Sprites can go higher during Fortnite Sprite events. This includes the Mastery Mondays in Fortnite, which increase the spawn rate of rare Sprites in the game for 24 hours while also helping players master their Sprites.
Apart from the fishing spots, you can also find Gold Sprites in Fortnite by looking for them in their respective spawn areas. Hunting down Gold Sprites is no easy task, with their spawn rates being notoriously low. While they do not appear in fixed map locations, you can target specific areas on the Chapter 7 Season 3 map and use methods to improve your chances of finding one.
Given below is a breakdown of the best areas to look for all of the different Gold Sprites:
- Gold Water Sprite: Rivers, lakes, and coastal beach biomes.
- Gold Earth Sprite: Dense forests and heavily wooded regions.
- Gold Fire Sprite: Cities, towns, and busy urban POIs.
- Gold Fishy Sprite: Near water bodies and by fishing.
- Gold Striker Sprite: Found in Sprite Chests and by scoring a goal at the Soccer Pitch.
- Gold Aura Sprite: Found exclusively in Sprite Chests.
- Gold Duck Sprite: Near vaults at Sinister Strip and Frosted Flats.
- Gold Ghost Sprite: Anywhere on the map, but only during the nighttime cycle.
- Gold Demon Sprite: Inside Sprite Chests and blue Rare Chests.
- Gold King Sprite: Inside Sprite Chests, Rare Chests, or dropped by defeated AI bots.

- Gold Boss Sprite: Found in Sprite Chests and by taking down one of the Chapter 7 Season 3 bosses.
- Gold Dream Sprite: Inside Vault Sprite Chests.
- Gold Zero Point Sprite: Ultra-rare drop exclusively from high-tier Vault Sprite Chests.

What Do Gold Sprites Do in Fortnite?
Gold Sprites grant players an extra 3x bonus XP for eliminating an enemy in a Fortnite match. Apart from their inherent passive abilities, this effect can net you a ton of XP to progress through the Runners Battle Pass. Additionally, if you have a Victory Crown, you can get up to 1,600 XP elimination.
So, if you end up running into one of these rare Sprites, make sure to extract them using a Portable Extractor or a nearby Extraction Site. However, you can also choose to master the Sprite by leveling it up to Level 5 and then extracting it.
