Fortnite cheats and tips - Full list of EVERY weapon and the damage it does
Fully equipped
Fortnite is an addictive game, it's true. We can't tear ourselves away from the battle royale experience, especially now we can play it on mobile devices. My iPad has never seen so much exercise.
In the game you'll have to gather weapons from buildings and hiding away in the world, so we've put together a full list of the weapons, their ranks, and the damage you can expect from them.
One thing first; weapons have different ranks, or rarities, and the rarer they are, the more powerful they are. For weapons with multiple rarities we've denoted their rarity in brackets after the DPS or damage stats. The rarities are as follows...
- Grey - Common
- Green - Uncommon
- Blue - Rare
- Purple - Epic
- Orange - Legendary
