Buy Fortnite Purple Skull Trooper Accounts

How the Purple Skull Made Epic Big Bucks on Fortnite

There was a time in October 2018 when almost everyone in the lobby had the same skin; that’s right, we’re talking about the famous Skull Trooper skin. Famed for its status, this rare cosmetic item granted high social status for anyone who wore it. The concept of rarity in Fortnite varies and adds a different dimension when it comes to collecting skins. After all, you have to take into account the skins that were only available during specific seasons, events, holidays, and the ones that you don’t really see all that much in the item shop. One of the main things in Fortnite’s culture is the skins. With Fortnite being a free-to-play game, what else is there for Epic to make money out of?

October 2018 was actually the time when Epic re-released the Skull Trooper. This skin made its grand debut in November 2017. After that, it disappeared only to surface after 11 months. The Skull Trooper became one of the most coveted skins in the game thanks to high profile Fortnite streamers such as Myth, Tfue, and Ninja showing it off—three of the most iconic Fortnite streamers in the world. The original cost of the Skull Trooper skin back in 2017 was 1,200 V-Bucks, but in October 2018, Epic bumped up the price to 1,500 V-Bucks which was equivalent to $15. The price is pretty high compared to other skins, but millions of people were still willing to cough up the dough thanks to its collectability. No doubt Epic made tens of millions on the Skull Trooper skin alone during that time, but since then, we haven’t seen its re-appearance.

Why You Should Buy an OG Skull Trooper Account

The Skull Trooper is one of the most sought after skins in the history of Fortnite. But is it rare? We think not. Since its comeback in October 2018, millions of people have already bought the skin so it’s not as rare as say, the Renegade or Black Knight. However, it’s arguably the most popular skin among other Fortnite skins to have been released over the past few years. Despite the fact that it’s been two years and with no sign of a comeback, the popularity of the Skull Trooper skin is still there. And besides, it’s an important piece of Fortnite’s history at this point—not to mention a great show off piece to your friends who don’t have it. If you got it, then why not flaunt it? And thanks to the skin not being as rare as before, the prices for accounts with this skin has gone down by a significant margin. So if you’re looking for an affordable Fortnite account that has a skin worthy of your time, then look no further!

Variations of the Skull Trooper Skin

There are two different types of Skull skins: one for the male avatar and one for the female avatar. The male version of the Skull skin, Skull Trooper, is what you’re probably the most familiar with. For the female version, it’s the Skull Ranger. Both suits are available in white, green, and purple variants. The purple one, in particular, is a version that’s only available for players who first bought the skin when it was first released back in November 2017. If you want to go for the complete look, there’s also the Skull Squad Gear where you can use a ghostly scythe as your axe and a Ghost Portal Back Bling to stuff your goodies. The Ghost Portal was only available to players who completed the challenges for it in Patch v6.02 that came out two years ago, making it a rare cosmetic.
