The Heavy Shotgun has returned to Fortnite in Chapter 3 Season 1, and that means close gainsay battles have only gotten a lot riskier. The Heavy Shotgun is a monster in the hands of people with skilled aim. Unlike the regular shotguns, it does non fire a burst of pellet, instead of sending a single slug towards your enemy.

This makes information technology something of an all-or-nix weapon. If you state the slug, the damage is intense, but if you miss and then you not doing whatsoever harm at all. The Heavy Shotgun tin can be found in Chest, equally floor loot, and can be obtained from both Supply Drops and Sharks.

The Common rarity will do 81 damage to the body, 142 harm to the caput, and has a reload time of iv.viii seconds. Meanwhile, the Legendary will do 99 damage to the trunk, making information technology nigh a ane-hit impale, and 173 with a headshot. The reload time drops to three.9 seconds.

Equally you tin can meet, information technology is capable of putting out incredible harm, and players will want to be wary virtually letting opponents shut the altitude on them now that this is back in the game. Anyone capable of snapping off quick and accurate headshots will notice this is a fantastic option, however.
