One of the quests in Fortnite requires you to find both an air sprite and a water sprite in the same match. These elusive little guys can be annoying to find, and if you’re not looking for them, you may not run into them, making it a quest you actively have to seek out (rather than one that just kind of completes as you naturally play).

Below we explain where to find air and water sprites in Fortnite quickly.

How to find air sprites and water sprites quickly in Fortnite

The easiest way to get both an air sprite and water sprite in one match is to head to sprite shrines, which are littered all over the map. You can interact with the shrines and it’ll mark nearby sprites on your map. The water sprites are marked with a blue water-like icon and the air sprites are marked with an orange air-like icon.

We recommend dropping on a point of interest near one, looking up, and interacting with the shrine. If you’re lucky, both sprite types will be nearby. If not, grab the one that shows up and then get in a car and head to a different shrine. Repeat the process as necessary.
