All Fortnite OG Assault Rifles

The return of hitscan weapons makes Assault Rifles potent in Fortnite OG. However, bloom inconsistencies affect some. The standard Assault Rifle is generally preferred, especially considering the Scoped Assault Rifle's inaccurate scope.

Assault Rifle

Its manageable bloom, ample magazine, and decent damage make the Assault Rifle a reliable choice at all ranges. The legendary variant is particularly powerful.

Burst Assault Rifle

The 3-round burst and high bloom make this weapon unreliable and less effective than the standard Assault Rifle.

Scoped Assault Rifle

While offering first-person aiming, its inconsistent bullet trajectory makes it difficult to use effectively.

All Fortnite OG Shotguns

Shotguns are vital in close-quarters combat due to their high damage and fast fire rate. The "Double Pump" technique (rapidly switching between two Pump Shotguns) was a dominant strategy.

Pump Shotgun

The 2.5x headshot multiplier makes it capable of instant kills. The Double Pump strategy maximizes its effectiveness.

Tactical Shotgun

Its higher fire rate makes it a safer, albeit less powerful, option than the Pump Shotgun.

All Fortnite OG Pistols

Pistols serve as decent early-game weapons but are generally outclassed in the late game.

Semi-Auto Pistol

A common starting weapon with a high fire rate but significant damage drop-off.

Revolver

A higher-damage pistol with noticeable recoil, impacting accuracy.

All Fortnite OG SMGs

SMGs are effective at close range but lack the damage output of shotguns and the range of assault rifles.

Suppressed Submachine Gun

The best SMG option due to its suppression and damage falloff starting at 20 meters.

Tactical Submachine Gun

Inconsistent fire rate affects its accuracy at short range.

Submachine Gun

High fire rate but low accuracy and high ammo consumption.

All Fortnite OG Sniper Rifles

Sniper Rifles require precise aim for effective headshots.

Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle

High damage with a 2.5x headshot multiplier, but slow fire rate and single-shot magazine.

Semi-Auto Sniper Rifle

Faster fire rate and larger magazine but lower damage per shot than the Bolt-Action.

All Fortnite OG Explosives

Explosives are crucial for destroying structures and eliminating opponents.

Rocket Launcher

High damage and structure damage, but slow fire rate and single-shot magazine.

Grenade Launcher

Multiple grenades for area denial and structure destruction.
