If you have been dropping into the island lately, you have probably noticed that everyone is talking about the return of a fan favorite. Klombo is officially back in Chapter 7 Season 4, but not in the way longtime players might remember. Instead of roaming the landscape as a giant, berry-eating creature, Klombo has returned as a companion Sprite.
Finding one, however, is an entirely different challenge. Unlike standard companions that you can casually stumble across while looting, the Klombo Sprite does not spawn out in the open. With an ultra-low drop rate estimated between 0.0001% and 0.005%, it currently stands as the rarest companion on the entire island.
If you are wondering how to track one down, speed-level its abilities, and permanently secure it for your collection, here is everything you need to know.
What Does the Klombo Sprite Do in Fortnite?
The Klombo Sprite acts as an active, on-the-go loot generator. Every time your Klombo Sprite levels up during a match, it dispenses high-tier weapons, ammunition, or utility items. As you push its level higher, the quality of the gear it yields improves significantly.
Unlike companions like the Dream Sprite—which explodes once it reaches Level 5—Klombo stays active and safe in your inventory. This makes it an incredible asset for sustaining your loadout into the late-game circles without having to contest dangerous supply drops or high-traffic POIs.
The Easiest Ways to Get the Klombo Sprite
Because raw RNG is not in your favor, relying purely on random floor loot is going to lead to a lot of wasted matches. Here are the most practical routes to secure one:
1. Trade with Friends (The Fastest Method)
If you want to skip the brutal drop rate entirely, trading is your best option. If a squadmate or someone in your gaming community already has duplicate Sprites in their collection, swapping with them bypasses the grind completely.
2. Hunt for Gold Cheat Code Chests
In-world Cheat Codes are scattered across the island in three distinct tiers. While entering standard codes gives you a slim shot, cracking Gold Cheat Code Chests offers the highest confirmed probability of finding a Klombo Sprite.
- Pro tip: Equip mobility gear like Sonic Power Sneakers to sprint between terminals and cover ground much faster.
3. Search Rare and Relic Chests
Standard chests have an almost negligible drop chance, but high-tier Rare and Relic Chests feature boosted loot pools that can occasionally roll a Klombo Sprite.
4. Eliminate Rival Players
Keep a close eye on the elimination feed. If an opponent is carrying a Klombo Sprite and you take them down, their companion drops right alongside their weapons and materials, making it yours for the taking.
Best High-Elevation Spawn Locations to Target
While there is no single dedicated POI with a 100% guaranteed spawn, data from player drops shows a strong trend: Cheat Code terminals and high-tier chests appear far more frequently across mountainous, high-altitude terrain.
[ HIGH-PROBABILITY ELEVATED ZONES ]
-----------------------------------------------
• Lifty Lodge -> Peak verticality & dense chests
• Stone Sanctum -> High Relic Chest spawn rate
• Golden Grove -> Low-traffic peripheral routes
• Green Hill Zone -> Rapid rotations & high vantage points
Focus your initial drop paths around Lifty Lodge and Stone Sanctum. Even if you miss out on a Klombo drop on your first pass, these locations provide enough high-rarity loot and mobility options to set you up for clean rotations into neighboring zones.
How to Level Up Your Klombo Sprite Fast
Here is where many players get confused: standard gameplay actions do not give XP to your Klombo Sprite. Opening ammo boxes, looting regular chests, lighting Campfires, and getting eliminations will grant zero progress toward its level bar.
The Klombo Sprite levels up exclusively through consuming healing and shield items.
The Consumable Healing Loop
To level your Sprite quickly, prioritize collecting:
- Medkits and Bandages
- Small Shield Potions, Shield Potions, and Chug Jugs
- Guzzle Juice
- Foraged produce (Apples, Cabbages, and Corn from produce boxes)
- Fish caught from Golden Fishing Spots (which grant extra gameplay buffs alongside Sprite XP)
Fast-Leveling Strategy: To speed up the process, you can deliberately take small ticks of fall damage by dropping from low ramps, or step briefly into the storm edge, and immediately consume your healing items. This creates a repeatable loop that levels your Sprite without needing to find enemy engagements.
The Adventure Sprite Stacking Method
You can also take advantage of an effective companion synergy. The Adventure Sprite automatically upgrades a random item in your inventory whenever it gains a level.
If you clear your weapon slots and hold only your Klombo Sprite alongside non-upgradeable consumables, the Adventure Sprite’s level-up trigger will force-upgrade your Klombo Sprite instead.
All Klombo Sprite Variants Explained
As of the current season updates, there are three distinct Klombo Sprite variants available:
| Variant | Base Ability | Unique Bonus Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Klombo Sprite (Base) | Dispenses random scaling items on level-up | None |
| Gold Klombo | Dispenses random scaling items on level-up | Grants 3x bonus XP from all player eliminations |
| Cheat Master Klombo | Dispenses random scaling items on level-up | Guarantees 100% correct inputs when using in-world Cheat Codes |
If you are grinding through your seasonal Battle Pass or leveling up character cosmetics like Bastian, the Gold Klombo is the top choice for its massive elimination XP multiplier.
How to Extract and Keep Your Klombo Sprite
Finding a Klombo Sprite during a match is only half the battle. If you get eliminated before you extract, you lose the companion for that round.
- Carry a Portable Extractor: If you find a Klombo Sprite early, prioritize finding or buying a Portable Extractor rather than taking unnecessary fights in the final storm circles.
- Secure Your Extraction: Activate the extractor or win the match to bank the Sprite into your permanent account inventory.
- Equip via the Sprite Garden: Once safely extracted, your Klombo Sprite will live in your Sprite Garden. From there, you can equip it directly through the Override menu in the lobby before loading into future Battle Royale matches.

No. In Chapter 7 Season 4, Klombo exists exclusively as a companion Sprite and does not appear as a roaming world boss or rideable creature.
What happens if I get eliminated while holding Klombo?
The Sprite will drop on the ground as loot for your opponent to pick up. You will need to find another one or safely extract one in a future match to add it to your permanent Sprite Garden.
