The best weapon in Fortnite: Ballistic.

Summary

• Choose your weapons wisely in Fortnite Ballistic to prepare for a variety of combat scenarios.

• Each weapon has pros and cons that affect the dynamics and effectiveness of the gameplay.

• Assault rifles like the Nemesis AR provide versatility and balanced performance in 5v5.

Fortnite ventured into the tactical shooter genre with its 5v5 game mode, Ballistic. While the main goal for attackers is to plant a bomb and for defenders to defuse it, many matches can end prematurely by eliminating everyone on the opposing team. To do this, you will need to choose a weapon with more firepower and versatility to be ready for firefights, ambushes and recapture of the point.

You can buy weapons starting from the second round of Fortnite Ballistic and can replace them in each round as long as you have enough money. So make sure you try out all the weapons before you settle on one, although it's clear that some are much better than others on the battlefield.

Hand cannon

You can buy a hand cannon early on to keep it in your inventory alongside the ranger's standard pistol. However, this gun has a lower rate of fire, making it inferior in many ways. Although equipped with a red dot sight, the hand cannon can't cover much distance, so it's very similar to your other handgun.

You'll still have to get close to your opponents to finish them off. This makes the hand cannon inconvenient in most situations, even though it doubles the ranger's pistol bullet damage.

Ranger pistol

One of the first things any shooter teaches you is that changing weapons is always faster than reloading, and switching to a Ranger pistol isn't as bad as it sounds. The weapon is the one you start with and the one you use during the first round on each side. Once you can buy another weapon, you might not go back to the Ranger pistol, but it's a very decent secondary weapon.

Its magazine is larger and its rate of fire is higher than that of a handgun, making it essential for fast-paced games.

Shooting with a hammer

One of Fortnite's OG weapons has made its way into the tactical shooter mode, and like all of its versions, it's great. Its high damage output is very high, and its headshot multiplier can help you eliminate opponents with one accurate shot. However, his rate of fire is very low, so if you don't get a headshot, you might be in trouble.

Fortnite Ballistic is a very fast game mode and Hammer Pump Shotgun is very slow which makes it a problem most of the time.

7

Enforcer AR

Of the three assault types available in Fortnite, the Ballistic Enforcer AR received the shortest drop. It's the one that can do the most bullet damage, but it makes up for all that firepower with a very low rate of fire. Although it is an assault rifle, it is closer to a sniper thanks to its 12-round magazine.

This can help you identify enemies from a safe distance, but once you get close you're at a distinct disadvantage, making the Enforcer AR one of the worst choices in Ballistic.

6

Reaper Sniper Rifle

While Battle Royale sometimes jumps in with its sniper rifles, Fortnite Ballistic allows you to buy them after a few rounds. The Reaper Sniper Rifle is obviously the most powerful weapon of the bunch, but you still need a headshot to eliminate a player in one shot.

With a three-round magazine and low rate of fire, the weapon is fairly balanced, but given its cost and the fact that it's easily outgunned by other autos in the group, it falls short of its full potential.

5

Automatic shotgun Frenzy

The popular automatic gun Frenzy from Chapter 5 Season 1 has made it to Fortnite Ballistic with its impressive rate of fire, and it pairs very well with 5v5 play on a small map. You'll need to use the ranger pistol to hit enemies from afar, but once you get up close, you'll be able to take out enemies at will.

Reoccupying a point is especially useful when you need to neutralize a device because it gives enemies little time to react.

4

Thunder Blast SMG.

With two pistols in the Fortnite weapon pool, Ballistic SMG Thunder Burst is pretty decent. You can deal quick damage when close to opponents, but its rapid fire rate can leave you vulnerable during intense firefights.

In any case, this is already a classic weapon for Fortnite players, so you've probably seen and used it many times in different game modes. This makes the SMG Thunder Burst a reliable weapon that can hit enemies even at a distance, but unfortunately it is not the best weapon in its category.

3

Hyper SMG

The other SMG in the pool isn't as powerful as Thunder Burst, but it makes up for it in all the right places. Its rate of fire is much higher, and with a larger magazine, you can take out a couple of enemy players before you need to reload it.

The only downside to the Hyper SMG is that its headshot damage doesn't matter much. Instead, you can focus on scanning your enemies from top to bottom to make sure you eliminate them as quickly as possible.

2

Nemezida AR

Assault rifles are the best choice for Fortnite Ballistic because they offer a balanced experience and allow you to hit opponents from different distances. The Nemesis AR is strong and has a decent rate of fire, though its 25-round magazine limits its potential.

In addition, his equipped scope allows you to hit enemies from afar, and shooting enemies without aiming down is quite easy even at close range. All of this makes the Nemesis AR the most versatile and easy-to-use weapon in Fortnite Ballistic.

Attacking A.R

The Striker AR is another classic weapon in Fortnite, and like the others on this list, it comes equipped with a scope so you can pick off enemies from a safe distance. It's very similar to the Nemesis AR, with a slightly faster rate of fire and better damage output. This is the strongest of all assault weapons in Fortnite Ballistic, making it the safest choice after the first round.

What's more, the Striker AR is equipped with a suppressor, making it a good alternative for close and long range combat.
