How to get Lil’ Uzi Vert Jr. Sprite in Fortnite and how it works
Fortnite’s second Treasure Hunters week adds the Lil’ Uzi Vert Jr. Sprite, which players can collect by defeating the boss at his stronghold and safely extracting it with an Extractor. It is a guaranteed drop, making it easier to obtain than most Sprites this season.
The Sprite comes in base, Cursed and Fortune variants; the two special versions add a modifier but keep the same core effect. It triggers a splash that restores shields for the player and nearby allies, and levelling it reduces the cooldown, making it useful for teams.
In short
- Defeat the stronghold boss and extract the Sprite.
- It restores shields for you and your allies.
- Levelling it reduces its cooldown.
Explained simply
Fortnite is an online game in which players explore, collect equipment and compete, often in teams. Sprites are collectible companions with abilities that can help players during a match, while bosses guard certain locations and must be defeated to obtain their rewards.
A stronghold is a defended area, and an Extractor is used to secure a Sprite and get it out safely. Shields protect players from damage, so a Sprite that restores shields to nearby teammates can affect how a squad stays in a fight; variants can add a modifier while retaining the same main ability.
