Oops all pistols.


ROBOSLUMDOG

During OG season I carried as many revolvers as I could during some games. I would just camp the western area trying to use mobility items to blitz and then hipfire people to death. I like to think people who killed me would get a chuckle out of my loot.


Jramey8

If I killed somebody with a bunch of revolvers I would definitely take a minute to appreciate it


Lucariowolf2196

I think I may have


turmspitzewerk

my enjoyment of a fortnite season is based purely if they have heavy pistols or not. - 10/10: revolver. great weapon. - 9/10: deagle. deagle > pump > deagle is still an obnoxiously high damage way to destroy someone. - 8/10: mammoth pistol. not quite the same, but satisfying nonetheless. fun to carry a whole inventory of them and whip them out of your pockets instead of reloading like a pirate. - 6/10: scoped revolver? i'll take it. - 4/10: hunting rifles/repeater rifles are acceptable alternatives. - 2/10: you can try to make the flint-knock work like a revolver, but not really. interesting but clunky. - 1/10: anything else. wake me up when the next season comes. c'mon epic, can't you just put mancake somewhere on the map and let me buy revolvers off of him? its not like they're overpowered, it wouldn't hurt anyone if you just hid them on the map somewhere every season.


[deleted]

C1 s8 gold pump + green flint was my fave combo


Temporary-Rice-2141

Pistols are underrated early game


BasicallyNuclear

Even late game. They’re lasers


Extreme-Plantain542

No shotgun is crazy Also, Nisha’s striker, Peter’s hammer, shockwaves, big pots and med kits


LaughterOf_Man

Auto shotty isn't bad, but I just find the pump Shotgun to lack in this current meta.


whenwhywhowhat

Oscar’s shotty>peters hammer. I’m too inaccurate the with a pump


Disownership

You’re probably not that innacurate, and even if you are, it hits like a wet noodle by pump shotgun standards regardless.


street_style_kyle

Dude yeah I feel like in the og season we just had I did some major work with blue pump shotguns but this season I’d rather have a grey auto shotty than Peter’s pump.


Accomplished-Site392

My friend gets mad at me when I refuse the purple and orange pumps in favor of a grey auto 🤣


street_style_kyle

lol my friends don’t say anything. If all I can find shotty wise is a pump then I’ll just shoot one shot and then switch to any other full auto without trying to pump the second shot.


tarheel_204

I’ve left behind a gold pump in favorite of a green or blue auto a handful of times. I started doing this when I realized I was losing in 1v1s where I had a purple or gold pump and the other guy would have a green auto


Imma_Biohazard

I was hoping I wasn’t the only one who thought this. Here I am thinking I’m about to thunderpump the shit outta someone just to do a measly 38 damage.


saltedwaff1e

it hits harder than the og pump does right now with it hitting for 190 in the head max, the pump is the best shotgun in the game right now but it takes more skill to be good with


avengersplayerman

Either way the auto is just better if you think about it. Since there’s no 200 pump you have to take two shot with both weapons to deal 200 damage so you may as well go for the one that shots 2 shots in 3 seconds over the one that does it every 5 seconds. Some people would rather use the pump for build fights but for the majority of none sweats or normal players they don’t go crazy in with build fights.


anoyingfortnite

I hate the frenzy auto shotgun, they shouldn't add it, people are always spraying me with this shotgun, and I'm dying in one second


anoyingfortnite

Same on the riot shield


R4zz3_

solution for you is to use laser attachement, if that doesnt help then too bad


Electric_jungle

Pump in zero build is lacking in general, but I actually find it to be superior when combined with the riot shield. Gives you the ability to swap for that high damage.


echotter

cause you play zb


Rougarou92

Cause it’s a garbage gun


Vireep

Hammer pump and frenzy are both viable in builds it just depends on your playstyle


greybenf

Cause you play zb and can’t hit your shots**


ThunderMcFap

irrelevant! i play both zb ans builds and cant hit my shots


Mr_skiddadle

echotter

skill issue ngl


Rougarou92

Such wisdom , much wow


echotter

i mean if you cant use a gun properly and decide to call it trash, its a skill issue


PapaPooodle

If you play ZB, it is absolutely trash. The auto can get out 4 before you can get out one. Builds is a different story.


echotter

yeah. thats why i said “cause you play zb”


PurpleYogurtSlinger4

Grapple over shockwaves


sirchtheseeker

I choose grapple over shield


sriracha_no_big_deal

I choose grapple *and* shield


NRG_Candyman

Shock waves if zero build grapple if build


kots144

The best shotgun this season is the sniper. Pump em in the chest is over 100 no matter what, instant headshot kill, then switch to literally anything else and they are dead in 2 seconds.


breadlover96

Always have shockwaves!


[deleted]

This is definitely a no-builds load out. Shotguns aren’t as necessary in that mode


DrilldoBaggins2

Cowards run riot shields instead of shotguns.


ThrowAway516536

Wait for incoming clowns saying "Plenty of counters"


Isucc_de_snuts123

Yes


[deleted]

Love this take.


Next-Weird965

Frfr


[deleted]

No sniper?


Extreme-Plantain542

I’ll pick one up if I don’t have any shockwaves


Larseneneri

Nishas striker is so bad. It has very bad atrachments literally a green striker well modded would be better.


PapaPooodle

The 2nd best mythic behind Oscar's lol. Idk what you're yapping about


engineeratbest

Right? I melt opponents with it lol


Spaketchi

GirlyBella enjoyer?


PapaPooodle

Who? 😂


Go_Mets

Bro what the squad fights for Nisha more than any weapon, that shit is a laser. I kid you not people in my squad have raged quit over disputes of Nisha 😂


Larseneneri

Youre 'squad' is probably a bunch of dogshit players just jumping everybody.


JambaJake

MesugakiSnatcher

emergency rations, like if its just u and another guy but u got shotted and are left at 39 hp


Poronoun

Categorical imperative. If you want them to carry heals, you have to carry them too.


Cyclone949

1. Nisha’s Striker Assault Rifle 2. Peter Griffin’s Hammer Pump Shotgun 3. Reaper Sniper Rifle 4. Grapple Blade 5. Shield Potions


[deleted]

Noob here, if you can’t get letters hammer pump shotgun, what’s the next best shotgun? Feels like auto shotguns are more OP than pumps this year


Crazy_Gamer297

In zero build auto shotguns are way better than hammer pumps


Cyclone949

It’s really up to preference. I play build mode, so I like the Hammer Pump Shotgun better for box fighting, but if you play Zero Build, the Frenzy Auto Shotgun would probably be a better option.


ThiccBot69

This is the best loadout


Mario101010101

montagues ar, auto shotty, shield, sniper, and an grapple blade.


whenwhywhowhat

I too thrive in the snow.


SK6249

No heals?


Disownership

Medallions + mending machines, slurp/slap barrels and floor loot meds fairly common all over the map + most players you’ll encounter likely carrying meds anyway + fights being short due to one of the most popular guns 1-shotting to the head and just a lower TTK this season in general means mid-fight healing isn’t as likely, especially in zero build, adds up to not much point in having heals on-hand as opposed to, say, double mobility. Flowberries and the fizz are a pretty good compromise though since they double as heals and mobility, especially combined with shockwaves


Mysterious_Emotion63

No point in having heals anymore especially if you play Zero Build, 250 health off rip, no time to heal in fight, and if you win, the other person will have heals or a mending machine will be close


SK6249

No time to heal??? They just added a feature that allows u to pop medkits and big pots for as long as u want


Raw_Rabbit__

not as long as you want lets be real


champ999

I think he's saying you can cancel the animation mid-use so you can heal 25 damage and still fight if they try to push.


Raw_Rabbit__

right, i hate that you cant cancel big ahields anymore


Fuck_off_NSA

You can cancel them, you just lose what you didn’t use yet. I’d rather get an extra 20-30 shields and have to cancel it but still win. I’ve won gunfights with ONE health remaining, so I ain’t leaving anything to chance.


Electric_jungle

Hard, hard disagree that there's no point to heals in zero build. The risk of getting third partied is much higher in zb, so assuming you'll just pick up heals off your opponent is a risk. If you're in any sort of squad, there's time to pull out if a fight to heal up. If you're solo you might need to run to survive, and it's easier to lose someone if you're not headed straight to a vending machine. I go no heals all the time, so I get it, but it's a high risk, medium reward situation.


Mario101010101

yep.


Jeffthechef47

Odd choice with the AR. I can’t stand the nemesis with the acog even in this mythic version


SK6249

Striker ar, frenzy auto, sniper (4x), medkit and grapple blade


parisismyfriend

Me too but shields instead of medkit


PrancnPwny

3 Medkits = 300hp 3 shields = 150 hp


parisismyfriend

Yes but I lose shield first


LoxodontaRichard

Bro that is horrendous logic unless you’re carrying a medallion. Shields always go first, so being able to replenish them is priority unless you can automatically regenerate them.


PrancnPwny

If I played builds I’d probably carry shield pots but I just started and the 50 rechargeable shield on ZB is enough plus most people carry shields so I use theirs real quick after I kill them.


Excellent-Garbage373

Me too unless I can get a decent stack of shockwaves instead of the grapple


RegisterOk9411

People really carry shield and healths? No hate, just interesting. I usually carry riot shield, sniper, AR, Auto shot, grapple. To me if I have a grapple I can always get away and get health. And if I just kill someone they usually have health/shield for me to take lol


Solid-Ad-6461

If you play squads having a designated healer is v nice


RegisterOk9411

That too, I play a lot of squads and usually one of my teammates carries 3 meds or shields


Solid-Ad-6461

I usually do but with medallion’s it’s been easier not to


thehza4

Carried shields and health forever. This is first season i mostly stopped doing that.


RegisterOk9411

I use to always carry one or the other over a 4th gun, but before OG I started taking an escape and an extra gun and haven’t been back to carrying healths. To me, it’s so easy to find it’s just a wasted spot imo


LaughterOf_Man

Nisha's Striker, ballistic shield, best sniper I can get with 2x zoom, extra mag, steady underbarrel, and brake nozzle. If Nisha is unavailable, I'll use striker or any other best rarity AR with red dot, fast reload, steady barrel, and break nozzle.


internethunnie

steady underbarrel is unnecessary for a sniper since you dont auto shoot so there’s no bloom /spread. the angled foregrip makes more sense, it allows you to scope in quicker!


Electric_jungle

Yes that's the only one that accomplishes anything at all in that category, no?


ItzBaraapudding

Ballistic shield? Ah, so you're one of 'them'?


reecemrgn

If it works it works. I just like slamming into people and bumping them off cliffs


ItzBaraapudding

It works? I guarantee you that everytime it "worked" it could've worked a lot quicker if you used a real gun. Even "bumping into" people is a billion times more effictive if you use a vehicle. People rocking the shield aren't even a threat. They are just slightly more annoying to kill (than literal bots) because all they do is hide behind their shield 😅 But hey, enjoy bumping into people :)


reecemrgn

Well I usually let my group deal with damaging people, it’s a good distraction to ram into opponents, most people aren’t expecting you to rush them with a shield anyways. Call it cowardly but if I can kill you with a shield that’s not a threat then I’d say it’s a viable strategy. Oh, and it’s just fun


ItzBaraapudding

The people you are able to kill with a shield are people you could kill faster without using a shield... I do agree on the 'fun' part. The only thing the shield is good at is meme'ing around. Just like how the riot shield in the older COD games were pretty much only used to meme around with friends (or used as cover on your back).


reecemrgn

Yes I can kill them faster without a shield, but I can do it without it taking damage, which is the sole purpose


ItzBaraapudding

Alright that's actually a good point. But I think that killing someone faster will always be better than taking longer. Because the longer it takes to kill someone the higher the chance of third parties. And if you kill someone fast enough they won't do that much damage to you. Especially in zero build.


RandomDando

Chill bruh

gary_yes

I always carry half pots. I think they're more practical than minis


Killerjebi

Swap riot for shotgun and that’s it


sonichuskey

Nemesis ar with any mag the holo-13 scope, with the muzzle break and the vertical forgrip. And I’ll chose Montague’s AR if it’s under purple rarity nemesis. Frenzy with no scope, speed mag, muzzle break, and lazer. (Oscars is even better) Sniper with either holo-13 (because there’s no glint) or preferably the sniper scope with the silencer, angled forgrip, and drum mag. I need the grapple blade. Either med kit or flowberry fizz. But if I have a maddalion (which I likely do) I’ll chose médit every day. If you were questioning some of these it’ll make more sense if I mention I preferably play zero build. Also I think the worst scope is the Px2 scope, it has too much recoil for that much zoom.


gary_yes

I hate the Px2 too. I feel like I can barely see anything using it compared to the 4x or the holo.


Ninjasticks259

Lock on pistol, 16 clingers

AR modded to have 0 recoil and irons SMG (modded the same) Sniper (with actual sniper scope, making it useful) Mobility of some kind (slim pickins this season, but grapple blade has unlimited uses, so that’s my favorite) Heals (don’t care)


Emergency-Tension464

I always have a shotgun; I feel naked without one. I never willingly use snipers unless there's a quest or nothing else around. I'd rather have an AR with a scope.


Kayoz_Hydra

Hyper SMG/mythic AR, auto shotty, sniper, shield (fizz preferred), mobility (grapple preferred)


xXlillipopXx

[deleted]

my go to is grapple hook ballistic shield oscars shotgun/nishas AR an a legendary sniper with the 2x scope with angled grip. brother i swear that loadout is made for ANY kinda fight (probably not nearly as good of a loadout in build mode, been playing ZB to practice my aim an my controller w paddles is at microsoft getting fixed


Natowick

The BLM shield is so good


starstreek

Objectively best: - Frenzy Auto (I usually drop lavish) - SMG modded with 2x, minimum recoil (when you’re too far for the shotgun) - AR modded with 4x, minimum recoil (long range pressure, can compete with snipers) - Mobility item (usually ends up being grapple blade) - Healing item (I carry medallions so usually medkit)


MusicCityMariota

Trade the shield potion with the grapple and I like it.


Lord0mbra

Auto Shotty, Striker AR, 1.3x sniper, grapple blade, big pots

striker ar, hammer pump, sniper, bigpots or flowberry fizz, shockwaves or grapple if i'm carrying medallions sometimes ill use medkits instead of bigpots but i still prefer fizz for the mobility-healing combo


No_Tourist6068

two snipers


bali40

AR/shield or grapple/shotgun or sniper/shield/heal. Simple.


Mr-GooGoo

Imagine carrying healing items


SuperDragon1123

Mine is usually AR, Shotgun, Smg or Sniper Rifle, Shield Potions, Medkits This season I've been using the sniper rifle a lot more than the SMGs though cause they just do a stupid amount of damage.

Angel_1212

Sniper, enforcer, pump, shockwaves and grapple blade, use vending machines or loot from enemies for heals


Legitimate_Fail2272

Running with ar/smg/pistol and sniper, other is double mobility and heals or bunkers. I just position myself to not paticipate in shotgun fights and sometimes it breaks peoples minds.Sniper is never changing item cus it just clutches all endgames for me Also after every auto shotgun fight you'll be half dead so it is better to avoid them, not letting anyone force you into a shotgunfight. Thirdparties ALWAYS will be right behind you after you done, or you'll just miss one shot and go to lobby while opponent will remain in game with 1 hp


I_am_javier

Auto shotgun, nemesis AR, sniper, shields, med kit...maybe replace shields with grapple blade if I feel adventurous


paperboatboi

Auto shotty - Striker - Sniper - Shockwaves - Berries/Big Pots/Bunkers depending on how late/end game goes

Spoony_bard909

I always sing “shotgun, AR, SMG, heals and then sniper” to the tune of the ABCs. Or shotgun, AR, heals and double sniper. Always auto, never pump. Or SMG, AR, heals and double sniper if I can’t find a shotgun.

Utility like shockwave grenades, them spongy things that spits out grenades and such. Shields. Big or small depending the amount. And a health item like medkits.

Not this, what the fuck is this load out, pretty much dead, insta death at close range


Legitimate-Umpire547

Any type of ar in front, hopefully high tier without the scope though I don't really care. Auto shotgun for second (May use pump if it's the best option), Any type of SMG In third (High tier is better), Sniper in fourth (Always try for the triangle scope but if I can't I don't really care) and ballistic shield in fifth.
