The Pollo Sprite is a Mythic companion in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 3, and it has no fixed spot on the map. Instead of guarding a single Point of Interest, it only appears as a rare reward inside certain high-tier chests. That makes finding it a mix of smart looting and patience, followed by one crucial extraction step to lock it into your permanent collection.
Quick answer: Open as many Sprite Chests and Rare Chests as you can, then carry the Pollo Sprite to an Extraction Site or use a Portable Extractor before the match ends to keep it for good.
Where the Pollo Sprite spawns in Fortnite
There is no set Pollo Sprite location. It is randomly awarded from eligible loot containers scattered across the island, so no single landing spot guarantees it. The Sprite only rolls out of premium loot, which keeps its drop rate very low on any individual chest.
These are the loot sources that can reward the Pollo Sprite:
- Sprite Chests
- Rare Chests
- Vault Sprite Chests
You can also take the Pollo Sprite from an enemy who is already carrying one, as long as you eliminate them before they extract it. Trading through the Sprite trading system is another route if you would rather skip the chest grind.
Fastest way to farm the Pollo Sprite
Because Sprite Chests give you the best odds, the reliable method is to chain them together across a single match. Every chest you open adds to your cumulative chance, so volume matters more than picking any one location.
How to extract and keep the Pollo Sprite
Finding the Sprite is only half the job. It does not enter your collection until you successfully extract it out of the match. If you are eliminated while carrying it, another player can claim it instead, so treat extraction as the priority once it is in hand.
| Extraction method | How it works |
|---|---|
| Extraction Site | Carry the Sprite to a marked Extraction Site and complete the extraction there. |
| Portable Extractor | Extract the Sprite instantly from wherever you are standing. |
A Portable Extractor is usually the safer choice for a Mythic Sprite because it removes the risky trip across the map. If you do not have one, there is an Extraction Site just north of Cluster Coast. Summon the Extraction Crate, hide until it lands, then rush in and dunk the Sprite. Once the extraction completes, the Pollo Sprite is added permanently and stays yours even if you are knocked afterward.
What the Pollo Sprite does
The Pollo Sprite is a Mythic support Sprite that rewards aggressive play. When you or a nearby squad member scores an elimination, it slowly replenishes shield for the group for a set duration. The effect only triggers after a kill, so it fits players who chain fights together instead of stopping to heal.
Leveling the Sprite up during a match extends how long the shield regeneration lasts. Its summon cost is 7,500.
| Level | Shield regeneration duration |
|---|---|
| Level 1 | 6 seconds |
| Level 2 | 7 seconds |
| Level 3 | 8 seconds |
| Level 4 | 9 seconds |
| Level 5 | 10 seconds |
At maximum level, each elimination grants a full 10 seconds of passive shield recovery to you and your teammates. That shared healing is strongest in Duos, Trios and Squads, where topping up shields after a knock can decide back-to-back fights.
The Pollo Sprite is never guaranteed, so expect it to take several matches of dedicated chest routing before one finally drops. Stick to Sprite Chests, keep moving between clusters, and extract the moment it appears. Once it lands safely in your collection, its aggressive shield support pays off across the rest of the season.
