Picking the 5fivemost popular Fortnite weapons of all time so far is tricky. With each new season comes new weapons, so the ranked lists are constantly changing.
Season 5 has brought back a few favorites as well so gamers are torn between the new shiny options, or the ol' faithful's.
5 of the Most Popular Fortnite Weapons of All Time... So Far
Either way, choosing a weapon will pretty much determine the outcome of your game. Sticking to one type - long range or short range - can be a disadvantage. Really you want as diverse an armory as possible. Below is just a few of the favourites that we have seen so far this season:
1: SCAR Assault Rifle (Epic and Legendary)
Considered one of the best weapons in the game, it's not surprising that the SCAR has made it to the top of our list. And not just our list either, as it continuously scores highly on every ranked tier.
2: P90
This is one of the most powerful submachine guns that Fortnite has offered so far. Also, with its consistency, it makes it one of the most reliable weapons to pick up.
3: Amban Sniper Rifle
Usually a sniper rifle is not the best weapon to immediately pick up when you first touch ground, but proves invaluable later on. For the Amban, this is different as the mythic weapon can be both long-range, and short-range. Its diversity is a real leg-up if you can get your hands on it by defeating the Mandalorian.
4: ROCKET LAUNCHER
Oh come on. Is there anything else to say? The sheer awesomeness of a rocket launcher would be reason enough to have it on this list. Its immense firepower notwithstanding. So while it does have a long reload time, if you're planning a more long-range assault, this would be pretty good to have on hand.
5: TACTICAL SHOTGUNS
This one is an ol' faithful. Easy to use, easy to find. More designed for close-range, but still able to pack more punch than say, a pistol. Always handy to have.
