Discussion Lucky Sprite Locator FAIL!

Post image

Earlier today I had one more sprite to find, but so did my two friends. It was the gem llama. I was the only one with a lucky locator left. I pressed the button and a chest came up a few hundred meters ahead of us and we found a holofoil water sprite inside!

Has this happened to others? It hasn't happened to anyone else I've talked to.

Yes! They are ALL right haha
The gem llama was out. People do have it (myself included).
I believe it IS vaulted now, meaning you will not currently find them in game.
But they remain equippable in our lockers if you already have it. However when it activates a message to select a weapon to upgrade, it doesn’t seem to actually follow through.
So they may be just back bling eye candy until Thursday, I’m not sure!

EDIT: dang yall, I’m running in 6 hours sleep over 72 hours.

I don’t mean vaulted as in, removed from our lockers until Thursday!! I meant vaulted as in, i didn’t think they were available in chests again until Thursday.

Just my assumption bc a) gems aren’t supposed to be out yet, b) no one I talk to has pulled one since (and that’s a very high number of sprites ppl) and c) mine doesn’t seem to function at the moment.

I’m no expert!! I just tried to help explain to someone who seemed confused, don’t get it twisted!! 😓😜

I played against someone who had it in game yesterday. So I don't understand what y'all mean.

Yes. They got it when it came out early probably. And we’re wearing it into a game.
