Fortnite OG features a unique weapon and item selection, demanding careful consideration of your loadout. The return of certain weapons in later seasons will significantly alter the meta, making this OG loot pool a valuable learning experience.

All Fortnite OG Assault Rifles

The return of hitscan mechanics makes Assault Rifles potent in Fortnite OG. However, inconsistent bloom on some weapons necessitates strategic choices. The standard Assault Rifle generally outperforms others, especially given the Scoped Assault Rifle's inaccurate scope.

Assault Rifle

Reliable at all ranges, the Assault Rifle's manageable bloom, ample magazine, and decent damage make it a staple. The legendary variant is particularly powerful.

Burst Assault Rifle

The Burst Assault Rifle's three-round burst and high bloom hinder its reliability, making it less desirable.

Scoped Assault Rifle

Despite first-person aiming, the bullet trajectory deviates from the reticle, making it inconsistent.

All Fortnite OG Shotguns

Shotguns dominate close-quarters combat in Fortnite OG due to their high damage and fast fire rate. The "Double Pump" technique (rapidly switching between two Pump Shotguns) is particularly effective.

Pump Shotgun

The 2.5x headshot multiplier makes the Pump Shotgun a potent close-range threat. Double Pumping minimizes reload downtime.

Tactical Shotgun

Its higher fire rate makes the Tactical Shotgun a safer, albeit less powerful, alternative.

All Fortnite OG Pistols

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

Semi-Auto Pistol

A common starting weapon with a fast fire rate but significant damage falloff.

Revolver

Higher damage than the Semi-Auto Pistol, but significant recoil affects accuracy.
