Sprite abilities — FAQ
Does a Sprite’s finish (Gold, Cheatmaster) change its ability?
No — every finish of a Sprite shares the same ability; the finish is cosmetic. The Cheatmaster finish’s only perk is that you can button-mash the inputs on in-world Cheat Codes to activate them instantly, rather than following the arrow sequence.
How do Sprite abilities get stronger?
Abilities scale as you level a Sprite with Sprite XP (Mastery). Higher levels typically extend the effect — longer reveal durations, bigger boosts, or extra effects at max level.
Which Sprite has the best ability?
It depends on your playstyle, and it shifts with the meta — see our tier list for a strength ranking. Rarity is how hard a Sprite is to get; the ability is what it does once you have it.
Abilities are from Epic’s notes and community testing; some newer Sprites are still being confirmed and are marked as such. Not affiliated with Epic Games.
