How to Get Sprite Dust in Fortnite: Best Methods Explained

Sprite Dust was introduced in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3 alongside Sprites, and it has become an integral part of the game ever since. It functions as in-game currency, and unlike Gold Bars, it cannot be used to directly purchase items. However, it is rather useful, given how its utility has been expanded. That said, here is how to get Sprite Dust in Fortnite and make the best use of it.

How to Earn Sprite Dust in Fortnite

As of the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 update v42.10, there are two primary methods to get Sprite Dust in Fortnite. One of them is a more long-term solution, while the other is a quick fix. Here’s how to earn Sprite Dust in Fortnite:

Extracting Sprites in Fortnite

A rather straightforward way (and soon, maybe the only way) to get Sprite Dust in Fortnite is by extracting Sprites you come across in-game. Once you’ve extracted a Sprite for the first time, any duplicate Sprite extracted grants you Sprite Dust.

Depending on the rarity of the Sprite and the variant, the amount of Sprite Dust earned varies. Since it won’t always be possible to extract Cheat Master Sprites in Fortnite, we recommend focusing on base variants. They are easy to find and suit your needs.

With Sprite Events in Fortnite lined up for this week, you’ll be able to collect and extract numerous Sprites with ease. We recommend not using any gizmos, as they are best saved for extracting the rarest Sprites in Fortnite.

Finally, Sprite Dust in Fortnite is usually boosted during a few Sprite-related events. Make use of this boost to earn as much Sprite Dust as you can in every single match. Since you’ll be able to make use of it until the end of the season, having surplus comes in handy.

Using Fortnite Lobby Hack Codes

If you need some extra Sprite Dust, you can always make use of Fortnite Lobby Hack (Admin Panel) Codes. They can only be used once, and the amount of Sprite Dust you obtain from them is rather limited. That said, here are codes you should use:

By using all the aforementioned Lobby Hack Codes, you get 25,000 Sprite Dust in Fortnite. It’s not a lot, but it enables you to purchase and/or upgrade a few Loot Hacks. This gives you access to more weapons from the Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4 loot pool.

What Is Sprite Dust Used for in Fortnite?

Sprite Dust in Fortnite has three primary uses: Summoning Sprites lost during a Battle Royale/Zero Build match and purchasing/upgrading Loot Hacks in Fortnite. You can store up to 200,000 Sprite Dust this season and only carry up to 20,000 Sprite Dust for the duration of a match. Let’s talk about both of these in detail.

Summoning Sprites

If you lose a Sprite during a Battle Royale/Zero Build match in Fortnite, you can use Sprite Dust to summon it. We don’t recommend using Sprite Dust to summon common Sprites; however, if you lose your Klombo Sprite in Fortnite, given its low drop rate, summoning is easier than looking for a replacement.

Keep in mind that Mythic Sprites also cost more to summon than Rare ones. However, if you have Mastered a Sprite in Fortnite, the cost to summon them is reduced by half. Even so, avoid losing them, or you’ll end up having to spend a lot of Sprite Dust in Fortnite to get them back. We recommend limiting your use of variants such as Gold Sprites in Fortnite to the Sprite Garden.

Purchasing / Upgrading Loot Hacks

Sprite Dust in Fortnite can be used to purchase and/or upgrade Loot Hacks. This unlocks powerful weapons and items that you can come across at times, based on their drop rate. They aren’t extremely rare, but they are hard to come by.

When you upgrade Loot Hacks, it increases their drop rate, making it more likely they’ll appear in each match. The cost of upgrading Loot Hacks in Fortnite increases with each level. As such, you’ll need to save up a lot of Sprite Dust.

Sprite Services from Extraction Sites

Sprite Dust can also be used to purchase Gizmos and services from Extraction Sites in Fortnite. These are situational, but can be stocked and used anytime during Chapter 7 Season 4. That said, here’s the list and the cost in Sprite Dust.

Gizmo/Service	Cost in Sprite Dust
Portable Extractor	2,500
Cheat Code Locator	1,500
20,000 XP	1,000
Weapon Upgrade	1,500 for Rare 1,800 for Epic 2,100 for Legendary 2,400 for Mythic

Keep in mind that stock is limited; thus, if you plan on stockpiling Fortnite Gizmos, you need to play often. However, we recommend keeping your Sprite Dust for Loot Hacks. They are still by far the most useful things to spend it on.

Easiest Method to Farm Sprite Dust in Fortnite

The best method to earn Sprite Dust in Fortnite is something we’d like to call Sprite Farming. Instead of focusing on eliminations, the main goal is to land at an offbeat Extraction Site and look for Sprites. Extract as many as you can, and then return to the main lobby.

You can easily come across Sprites from Cheat Codes, in Landmarks, and avoid players in POIs. With the numerous map changes implemented in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 4, there are numerous offbeat locations to explore.

We recommend landing at the Artsy RVS Landmark in Fortnite, which is located a short distance from the Chopped Shop POI. The location is stacked with Chests, Cheat Codes, and has an Extraction Site adjacent to it. If you’re quick, you can be in and out of each match in just a few minutes.

Fortnite Sprite Summon Costs in Chapter 7 Season 4

We talked about how to summon Sprites in Fortnite using Sprite Dust, but you should also know that each Sprite has a different cost to summon. Depending on the rarity and variant, the cost varies. As such, a Rare Cheat Master Sprite in Fortnite costs more to summon than a regular Epic Sprite. Here’s how much you need to pay to summon every Sprite in Fortnite.

The exception to the rule for the aforementioned table for Rare Sprites is Jonesy, Adventure, and Bush, which can be selected as your starter Sprite. The Mega Man Sprite in Fortnite is also an exception to the rule. Despite being Rare, it has a rather high summon cost of 1,750 Sprite Dust, which is similar to the X-Ray Sprite in Fortnite, which is of Legendary rarity.

That’s about everything we can tell you about Sprite Dust in Fortnite. Let us know in the comments how much Sprite Dust you’ve been able to collect thus far.
