Fortnite: The 4 best weapons in Chapter 3 Season 1 that are worthwhile for you

Since Chapter 3 was released in Fortnite, many players have had time to extensively test the new weapons. That’s why we show you the four best weapons in the new chapter that you should definitely use.

Where does the weapon information come from? The information about the values ​​of the weapons refer to the existing values, which can be read out in the inventory from the weapons menu. As a result, we went to a map we created ourselves and collected all weapon values ​​in creative mode.

In this top list I will put everything together for you and also incorporate my own experience to show you which weapons would surely bring you an epic victory.

About the author: My name is Christos, I am a freelance writer at MeinMMO and I am increasingly active in the areas of Fortnite and Destiny. After more than 2,000 hours of play and numerous seasons in Fortnite that I have actively lived through, I can make a well-founded judgment of what is important for a weapon in Fortnite and which weapons will most likely prevail this season.

These are the best weapons in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1

With weapons in Fornite, good handling and high damage are usually important. Since every second in a fight could mean the end, the special function of the respective weapon is not neglected. The following weapons currently stand out in particular:

  • MK-7 assault rifle
  • Automatic shotgun
  • Stachler submachine gun
  • Repeater hunting rifle

MK-7 assault rifle

What makes the weapon strong? The new assault rifle not only shines with its outstanding range and stability, it also impresses with a new feature: the first-person mode while aiming. You can use this weapon optimally for all ranges and even impress MP players with its high rate of fire.

Fornite has a lot more good weapons to offer, but these 4 are probably the best guns in Chapter 3 right now and are sure to bring you an epic victory. Furthermore, firefly grenades can be added to your inventory so that your opponents can burn cover.

Note: This list is a compilation of the weapons that I and many others have declared as the “currently best” – but that doesn’t necessarily have to apply to you too. As always, in the end it comes down to personal taste, individual preferences and, quite simply, whether you can get along with the respective weapon or not.

Just because many find it good or the values ​​are top does not automatically mean that you will be able to cope with it in such a way that it performs well for you too.

If you have other weapons in mind that are not listed here, feel free to tell us about them in the comments.
