Brutus' Minigun

Brutus' Minigun is a Assault Weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was added in Chapter 2: Season 2. It is a version of the Minigun, obtained by eliminating Brutus at The Grotto.

Functionality
The Brutus' Minigun has no magazine limit, fires much faster than other Assault Weapons, and has a cool-down period if fired for too long. The cool-down period exists to balance the lack of a magazine. The minigun is not very accurate, and has a spin up timer, which means the player cannot fire it instantly. It is not really made for actual combat, but exists to destroy builds and outplay those building for cover. Aside from this, the minigun is impractical for regular gunplay.

Compared to the original version, Brutus' Minigun has a faster spin up time, meaning the time between pressing fire, and the weapon firing is quicker.
