Fortnite Chapter 6, Season 1 introduces Sprites, helpful entities offering players items and abilities. The Earth Sprite, the most beneficial but elusive, is found only on the new Chapter 6 map in Battle Royale, Zero Build, and Ranked modes.
Earth Sprite Locations:
The Earth Sprite has approximately two dozen potential spawn points, indicated by lone lanterns similar to the one shown. However, only two Sprites appear per match, necessitating a search across multiple locations.
A comprehensive map, like the one displayed above (courtesy of Perfect Score on YouTube), pinpoints all 22 possible locations:
Offering Weapons to the Earth Sprite:
Locating the Sprite is the challenge. Once found, simply interact with it (using the interact button). This will relinquish your currently held weapon, which is then replaced with a random Legendary weapon, completing the Week 1 Quest and awarding 25,000 XP. While time-consuming, the high-rarity weapon reward makes it worthwhile.
Fortnite is available on multiple platforms, including Meta Quest 2 and 3.
