So, guys, I’ve been playing Fortnite for a while now, and I got curious about how much I’ve actually spent on the game. I mean, with all those skins, emotes, and whatnot, it’s easy to lose track, right? So, I decided to find out, and let me tell you, it was quite the journey. I started by looking for a way to calculate the total value of my Fortnite locker.
First, I started poking around online, trying to find a tool or something that could help me out. I stumbled upon a bunch of websites that track Fortnite stats and stuff. They talk about leaderboards, eSports events, and even the daily item shop. Cool, but not exactly what I needed.
Then I found this one forum post where someone was asking the same question: “How much is my Fortnite account worth?” People were talking about rare skins and how to figure out the value. This was getting closer to what I was looking for. It got me thinking, maybe there’s a calculator out there specifically for this. I saw some mentions of a “Fortnite locker calculator” in the search results, so I dug deeper.
I eventually found a couple of websites that claimed to have this calculator. They asked for my email and password. Hmm, I wasn’t too comfortable giving out my password. It also mentioned something about 2FA (two-factor authentication) being required for competitive events, which is good for security, but I wasn’t really concerned about that right now.
Start Tracking Your Fortnite Stats
I kept searching and found another site that had a “dropping calculator.” It talked about reversed-engineered Fortnite dropping mechanics and best drop maps. Interesting, but still not quite what I needed.
I stumbled upon this other site called “FORTWIZ,” which is apparently a Fortnite stats tracker and cosmetic database. It mentioned that you could start tracking your stats or see someone else’s, but I still wanted that darn calculator, you know? It felt like I was going in circles. But hey, at least I found a page that lets you “pick a random outfit from every item available” – that’s kinda fun, I guess.
Manual Calculation
After hitting a few dead ends with the online calculators, I figured, why not just do it the old-fashioned way? I mean, how hard could it be, right? So, I logged into my Fortnite account and started going through my locker, item by item. I made a list of everything I owned – skins, pickaxes, gliders, emotes, you name it.
Next, I had to figure out how much each item was worth. I started by checking the item shop history for each item. Some items were easy to price because they had been in the shop recently, but others were a bit trickier. For those, I had to do some digging on forums and community sites to get an estimate.
- Skins: I had quite a few skins, some rarer than others. I noted down the original price of each skin, if available, or the estimated price based on its rarity.
- Pickaxes: Similar to skins, I listed the price of each pickaxe I owned.
- Gliders: Same process here.
- Emotes: These were generally cheaper than skins, but they still added up.
- Wraps: I had a bunch of these, and they were all pretty affordable.
- Back Bling: Don’t forget about these, also need to be counted.
The Grand Total
Once I had my list and prices, I started adding everything up. Let me tell you, it was a bit of a shock to see the total. I had spent way more on Fortnite than I initially thought. But, hey, at least now I know the value of my virtual wardrobe, I guess. It’s a mixed feeling, for real. Part of me is like, “Wow, I really put that much into a game?” But another part is like, “Hey, I’ve had a lot of fun with it, so maybe it’s worth it?”
So, that’s my story of figuring out the value of my Fortnite locker. It wasn’t as easy as I initially hoped, but I got there in the end. If you’re curious about your own locker, be prepared to do some digging, or just grab a pen and paper and start counting!
