Chapter 7 Season 3 adds a bit of extra favor in Fortnite, as we can choose between three starting Sprites. Each of them offers certain benefits once you equip them before the start of a fresh round. All three of them have unique abilities that activate during a round.
Getting the best possible choice will certainly help raise the chances of your success during a round. Let’s find out which one you should pick.
All starting Sprite options in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3
There are three different options to pick from.
- Water Sprite: Heal when standing in water. The heals apply for your entire squad.
- Fire Sprite: Create a fiery burst when dealing damage to an enemy. This can do extra damage.
- Earth Sprite: Have a chance of receiving extra rare items when opening chests. This will raise the odds of finding those shinies.
As clear from the descriptions, all three are pretty useful as starter Sprites. However, you get to pick just one. Here are my recommendations based on your playstyles and preferences.
- Go for Earth Sprite if you like to loot as many chests as possible. I went with this one for the same reason. Getting those rarer items will also help you to get better gear and have a natural advantage over your opponents.
- Select Fire Sprite if you like taking on enemies and targeting as many kills as possible. The extra damage boost could be a big advantage in the end when it comes to getting eliminations.
- Choose Water Sprite if you’re playing in a squad. To get the full potential of the heals, it’s advisable that you play in a group.
However, there are other Sprites to find while you explore the map. The starter Sprites offer certain advantages, but they’re not overpowered.
To begin a round with a Sprite, select your starting pick. You can then equip them from the lobby screen before beginning a fresh round. Once you land on the map, your equipped Sprite will automatically become active when the applicable scenario arises.
