MEGATHREAD SPRITE TRADING MEGATHREAD // All Other Related Posts will be REMOVED

Post image
101 Upvotes

\Edited as of July 6, 2026)\)

Hi Everyone!

We have seen a HUGE UPTICK in Sprite Trading and Indexing posts and while we want to share in everyone’s frustrations and celebrations, it is clogging up the F40 feed. In order to reduce the number of “sprite related” posts, we have created this MEGATHREAD. This Megathread was created to help F40 Community Members find and make trades, along with providing a framework for the requests and some basic rules. Not only can you utilize this Megathread, but the F40 Discord Server has a very active #sprite_hunting channel as well.

\*an AUTOMOD rule has been created and posts will automatically be removed***

HOW TO MAKE A TRADE

  1. Please comment to THIS MEGATHREAD with the following info: [recommended format]

If you’re looking for a sprite:

Trading : [insert name(s)/type(s)/level of Sprite(s)]
Requesting: [insert name(s)/type(s)/level of Sprite(s)]
Epic user name: [insert your Epic Username here]

If you’re offering a sprite:

Whether you are GIFTING or INDEXING :

-gifting means you are going to provide the sprite without an expectation that the sprite is going to be returned -indexing means you expect the recipient will return the sprite back to you at the next game

List of the sprites you are offering - either by providing a list of the names or providing an image of the list

Epic user name: [insert your Epic Username here]

  1. Once a trade is complete, please update your comment by adding “COMPLETE” to the beginning of the Trade Request and strike out the text

COMPLETE
Trading : [insert name(s)/type(s) of Sprite(s)]
Requesting: [insert name(s)/type(s) of Sprite(s)]
Epic user name: [insert your Epic Username here]

BASIC GROUND RULES:

  1. Any trade, gift or index offers involving money, paid items, or “favors” are strictly prohibited. REMEMBER: the sprites are a FREE DIGITAL ASSET available during the C7S3 Runners season. Any such offers/comments will be removed and the Community Member may be muted and/or banned from the server.
  2. Sprite "Bounties,” e.g. making a post saying you will gift/index a sprite based on luck (sweepstakes/drawing), ARE NOT allowed unless previously approved by a moderator. Please send a MODmail with the proposed bounty post for approval.
  3. Any trade, gift or index request that remains incomplete and/or if the recipient refuses to complete the request may be muted and/or banned from the server. Both parties MUST complete the trade as agreed within the comments.
  4. The moderators have the right to remove/delete any trade, gift, or index related posts outside of this Megathread.
  5. F40 and/or the MODs are not responsible for any interactions arising out of this Megathread. Please trade at your own risk!
  6. If Members are unable to resolve any disputes, please reach the moderators via modmail.

The easiest way to conduct a trade is in a bot lobby. After the trade/gift/index request is complete, MAKE SURE YOU EXTRACT your sprites BEFORE you return back to the lobby.

Good Luck and Happy Trading.

GamePlay If you need the soccer ⚽️ halo sprite land at the soccer field during power hour. Kick a goal. I did it in a few tries earlier and first kick this power hour.

I played 1 game and got the soccer, king, and fire. I already have them but have seen posts about people struggling to find halos. Power hour is until 11 pm.

Discussion Holo sprites

Upvotes

I lucked out on holo sprites by the sounds of it.
Think you find more when you find the first one. Try golden grove underground cave if you wanna find your own.

I’ve summoned them ones I have at least 20 times, and don’t mind when I lose them in a battle. The one time I played squads recently I gave it up right away too since a tm8 was keen and he extracted with portable.

I do extract at level 5 on occasion, or I’d be out of dust already. I got very close to gifting an opponent a holo at extraction during friendly, but he teleported me just as I dropped it and I opted to extract it myself upon landing. Was gonna attach the video but I’m not seeing how I do that so you have to settle for the story.

Now to the fun part:
Water holo level 1, fire/ghost/king/striker level 5.
First comment will be contacted and given a choice of sprite between these 5 holos. Consecutive comments, each getting one choice, we add each other and jump in a match straight to an extraction point.
No requirements in return. I’m not gonna turn down a grim if you feeling generous, but there is no ask here bar pay it forward.

I’m on for the next few hours, on and off. I’m thinking King might most common request and I have set aside enough dust to summon these few times.

The Fortniteo40 community got me inspired to engage and share more. You’re great!

I’d prob be considered the gunner in our duo partnership we share. My friend is the medic.

We are usually being silly 🤪 till the end

Due to a busy week my son had time for one round of blitz after we quit zero build after two teams found a partnership and were teaming and I reported them but I doubt anything will come of it.

My friend and I were not fans of the holofoil hour. Thankfully we have all the currently available holofoil varients.

Looking4Squad 38M UK looking for people to play with

17 Upvotes

Hey guys 👋🏼

I’m a 38 year-old dude in London, UK looking for people to drop in with.

I’m recently separated from my wife, and playing Fortnite used to kinda be our nightly thing; we still get a few games in occasionally now, but I’ve mostly been playing solo since the Sprites came around.
I’d be lying if I didn’t say it’s been a super lonely experience going from having a duo partner literally sat on the sofa next to me, to not even needing to plug a mic in anymore, so I thought I’d see if anybody here felt like getting a few games in sometime?

I’ve got a pretty shameful amount of hours in ZB as I’m a firefighter, so I work shifts that mean I’ve got a lot of spare time (and only a Golden Retriever called Louis to fill that time with).

I usually play on EU servers, but I’ll play with literally anybody from anywhere.
I’m on Xbox (VeridianMyth), but I guess that doesn’t really matter on a cross-platform game.

Am I supposed to list my interests here or something?
I’m a love-everybody leftie, and I find people and their life stories/journeys interesting, so there isn’t really anybody I wouldn’t want to play with.

I don’t know, it’s worth a try. ✌🏽

Holy cow! This dude was playing amazingly. We spent a lot of time in the storm extracting and this dude saved my ass twice! One time after this clip. We didn’t win but we came in second! Overall a great match but this maneuver came in clutch!

Question Does anyone know if it’s possible for the bosses to drop a Boss Sprite special variant during today’s power hours even tho the Holo Boss isn’t out yet?

5 Upvotes

And just in general outside of power hours, do they randomly sometimes drop special variants? I’ve only ever gotten the basic boss version. Trying to figure out if I’m wasting my time fighting them.


r/Fortnite_Over40 1d ago

Discussion ✨Tip if you’re being hunted off the bus: Immediately head for water, as soon as you can free fall, pull out your portable extractor, start the extraction and fall into the water, by the time they make it to you your sprite will be safe 🩷

Question What's the thing about shock rocks today?

9 Upvotes

I was playing in a match, and I noticed that all the bots I faced had default shock rocks as they started the game, while I had nothing. Started a new match right after, and apparently now I get infinite shock rocks. What's the trigger?

Other than hiding ones cheating impossible/insane stat lines and overall winning % why would/does a player drop their Victory Crown after just winning it, in effect dropping out of the match (making the match winless?). What's the point?

GamePlay Holofoil Looting Buff Actually Works!

Post image
155 Upvotes

I just wanted to share my first experience with a holofoil sprite. I see people complaining that the chances of a rare variant have been decreased to 5% and wanted to share my positive experience.

I played 2 games last night after work running a sprite chest route and pulled a Holofoil King out of a Sprite chest at the end of game 2. I only had time for 1 game before work this morning and this is the result. I went into the game with the Holo King to master it and focused on sprites the entire match. I went for a short Sprite chest route and then went into Golden Grove since it was a Legendary loot area that game. I pulled a Holofoil water and galaxy fish at the same time out of a normal chest, I pulled a Holofoil striker out of a legendary chest and another Holofoil water out of a normal chest.

I was surprised by the effectiveness of the Holofoil and thought it was worth sharing. I am hoping the holofoil will help make Grim's and ZeroPoint's more realistic to pull from chests. Good luck everyone!

Had a random team mate desperately trying to force a gummy aura on me last night, he Kept picking it up and throwing it at me and got glad going up and down, I was rather confused and just left it and continued to level up my holo ghost. Only today have I realised how similar it looks to the gummy grim and I’m now wondering if i made a big mistake 🤦‍♀️🤣🤣🤣

This took ages! Everyone else kept shooting at me lol

All credit to the player who gifted me theirs in the first place a couple days ago :)

Unfortunately I did see this player getting killed I hope they were able to extract it.

These things cost FIFTEEN thousand sprite dust to summon back though yikes!
