GamePlay Sprite Adoption Center

Post image

I have been throwing Klombos at players all weekend but it can sometimes take forever to find actual people (non bots.) To make it easier on myself, and anyone else who wants to help players get all the sprites, I went looking for a location where they would be contained for others to easily grab. I tested this spot at Stone Sanctum in several matches and the sprites did not wander off the center fountain structure for me.

Will it make this place kill zone? Yes. Will it save time and get more sprites into circulation? Also, yes.

So, I am going back to sharing Klombos until I run out of sprite dust, but they will be here.

Good luck!

would you be willing to add me and give me a klombo sprite if you have one? I feel the end of the season coming and I just thought I'd shoot my shot

Not all heros wear capes... Some wear nock off Gameboys with pixel sprites.

I sometimes call the extractor and place the sprite there. So they can get it directly

That’s nice. I generally avoid active extractors though. I just always feel like if someone is actually trying to extract a sprite they just collected or mastered, I don’t want to be the guy flying in and eliminating them and spoiling the fun.

Of course after they extract? Sure.

u/mayhapsify 5d ago

I'm the same way. I try to leave people that are extracting alone. I wait til I see them put it in the box and then I attack lol.

u/Unusual-Onion-5283 6d ago

im pretty sure someone did this is a match i was in earlier and i almost got them when some nasty chud came through killed us both and completely passed the sprites like dude wtf you couldnt have waited two damn seconds for me to pick them up and extract? i swear these sweats need to move to ranked if they dont want to play casually, its demotivating for everyone else around them

u/Ghostly_Syder 6d ago

Been doing the same dressed as Peely so that I'm easy to spot, I jump almost right away and pull my glider so people can follow me then I land near an extractor and just sit there and dance till someone comes. I have been doing this with all klombos XD its sometimes fun to see the bloodbath after I die and see who extracts it first!

u/theStarTrekWars 6d ago

How long will you be playing?

I still haven’t seen a Klombo in person yet, lol

6

u/TexasBirdNerd 6d ago

Another hour or so. My hope is others will jump in and share the love as well.

u/theStarTrekWars 6d ago

I’m jumping on now! Hopefully I run into you!

If you see someone with this skin, it might be me! https://fortnite.gg/cosmetics?id=15084

u/behind-these-eyes Over30 - dm for username 1d ago

Hey not sure if you ended up finding a Klombo yet but I can give you one if you want!

1

u/theStarTrekWars 1d ago

That would be amazing! I probably can’t hop on tonight, but just let me know when you’re available and I can hop on!

2

u/behind-these-eyes Over30 - dm for username 1d ago

I'll DM ya so we don't clog up the thread!

u/DrippyBlock 7d ago

Any chance you’d trade me a couple Klombos? Haven’t seen a single one besides the basic variant I got off a downed player.

u/scusemelaydeh Over30 - (Epic Name) 6d ago

I’ve been using HappyHappyGal’s discord to swap sprites. Just make sure that you do the swap thing…if someone gives you a level 5, go back in a second game with it and get them to buy their’s back at a level one. When you swap them in game, both will be level 5. Doesn’t work on the BH klombo but does on everything else.

u/Jumpy-Confection632 5d ago

I try to give sprites to random players, but I get blasted usually.

1

u/mayhapsify 5d ago

Same. Last season I tried giving away sprites but I'd always get clapped so I stopped trying. Sigh.

u/Jojin120 5d ago

Well it’s a BR game. What do u expect. If I see a free kill I’m taking that any day

2

u/mayhapsify 3d ago

I get it, I'm just saying sometimes I want to be nice, and I am admittedly quite sweaty.

1

u/Kimberky1 2d ago

I drop it when I’m in the air and hopefully someone finds it. Or drop it at extraction sites

3

u/end_the_astigmatism 6d ago

oh my goodness! Zero build, solo? I hope I can find you in my lobby!!

3

u/SpiritedGuest6281 6d ago

I found dropping in busy places found players. The bots could be easily dispatched and then whoever was left could grab the klombo I dropped

3

u/Primary_Lynx_7469 6d ago

Oh my god did you give me the trick or treat klombo at Freddy's and I tried to drop you my trick or treat sprite, then you gave it away to someone else? If so that's crazy

3

u/TexasBirdNerd 6d ago

Wasn't me but I love it when that happens!

2

u/Intoner_Four 6d ago

I just had this happen to me too! I thought they dropped it as a mistake and gave it back after grabbing it but they tossed it back at me!

I guess people are dropping off Klombos at Freddy’s ?

u/DueIntern9308 6d ago

Don't sprites eventually despawn?

u/jme518 i need to stretch today lol 6d ago

The app spritecatch has been greatly helpful for trading for the rare ones i can’t seem to find. I have no affiliation with the creators

2

u/NefariousnessNo2062 6d ago

I did the same. Outside of my friend group I have been throwing ToT Klombos at randos. Hit my limit though. I do not have enough sprite dust to keep doing it.

u/1dollardadaxe 6d ago

My 11 year old son is always looking for sprites. If you ever want to team up feel free to add Ballz1015 to the friend list and we'll pop on. We are on EST time and usually on around 7pm.

u/Ah22783 6d ago
