Fortnite OG throws players back to the very beginning, recreating the nostalgic experience of Chapter 1, Season 1. This mode features the original map and loot pool, making it crucial to understand the available weapons and items for a successful, retro Battle Royale. Fortnite's OG loot pool contains a mix of effective and less-useful items, and understanding its nuances is key, especially as the game progresses beyond Season 1 and the meta shifts with returning weapons.

All Fortnite OG Assault Rifles

The return of hitscan weapons makes Assault Rifles potent in Fortnite OG. However, inconsistent bloom on some weapons can be problematic. The standard Assault Rifle is generally the most reliable, especially considering the Scoped Assault Rifle's inaccurate scope.

Assault Rifle

The Assault Rifle's manageable bloom, ample magazine, and decent damage make it a top choice. Its reliability at various ranges, especially the Legendary variant, makes it a must-have.

Burst Assault Rifle

The Burst Assault Rifle's three-round burst and high bloom significantly reduce its effectiveness and reliability.

Scoped Assault Rifle

While offering first-person aiming, the Scoped Assault Rifle's bullet trajectory misalignment makes it unreliable.

All Fortnite OG Shotguns

Shotguns dominate close-quarters combat in Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 1 due to their high damage and fast fire rate. The "Double Pump" technique further enhances their effectiveness.

Pump Shotgun

The Pump Shotgun's 2.5x headshot multiplier makes it capable of instant kills. The Double Pump strategy minimizes reload downtime, maximizing its lethality.

Tactical Shotgun

The Tactical Shotgun's higher fire rate and 2.5x headshot multiplier make it a safer, more consistent close-range option.

All Fortnite OG Pistols

Pistols serve as decent early-game weapons but are generally outclassed in the late game.

Semi-Auto Pistol

The Semi-Auto Pistol offers a high fire rate but suffers from significant damage drop-off.

Revolver

The Revolver's high damage is offset by its significant recoil and bloom.

All Fortnite OG SMGs

SMGs are effective at close range but lack the damage output of shotguns and are ineffective at longer ranges.

Suppressed Submachine Gun

The Suppressed Submachine Gun's suppressive fire and damage falloff at 20 meters make it the best SMG option.

Tactical Submachine Gun

The Tactical Submachine Gun's inconsistent fire rate can hinder its effectiveness.

Submachine Gun

The Submachine Gun's high fire rate consumes ammunition quickly and reduces accuracy.

All Fortnite OG Sniper Rifles

Fortnite OG Sniper Rifles require precise aim for effective headshots.

Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle

The Bolt-Action Sniper Rifle's high damage and 2.5x headshot multiplier make it a potent weapon, despite its single-shot magazine.

Semi-Auto Sniper Rifle

The Semi-Auto Sniper Rifle's faster fire rate and larger magazine provide more opportunities, though its damage is lower.

All Fortnite OG Explosives

Explosives are crucial for destroying structures and eliminating opponents.

Rocket Launcher

The Rocket Launcher's high damage and splash radius make it devastating, despite its slow fire rate.

Grenade Launcher

The Grenade Launcher offers multiple projectiles for area denial.

Grenade

Grenades are effective for destroying structures and clearing cover.

All Fortnite OG Traps

Traps add a strategic element to Fortnite OG gameplay.

Launch Pad

The Launch Pad provides mobility, allowing players to escape or reach high ground.

Ceiling Zapper

The Ceiling Zapper instantly eliminates or downs players who pass underneath.

Wall Dynamo

The Wall Dynamo functions similarly to the Ceiling Zapper but is placed on walls.

Damage Trap

The Damage Trap inflicts damage to players who step on it.

Directional Jump Pad

The Directional Jump Pad allows players to jump horizontally or vertically, negating fall damage.

All Fortnite OG Consumables/Items

Consumables are less common in Fortnite OG compared to later seasons.

Bandage

Bandages restore health up to a maximum of 75.

Med Kit

Med Kits fully restore health.

Shield Potion

Shield Potions restore shields.

Slurp Juice

Slurp Juice restores both health and shields.

Bush

The Bush provides camouflage.
