- — In-Game Description
TNTina's Ka-Boom Bow is a Bow in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was introduced in Chapter 2: Season 2.
TNTina's Ka-Boom Bow is the Mythic version of the Boom Bow.
Functionality[]
TNTina's Ka-Boom Bow functions very similarly to the regular Boom Bow. It is a bow which needs to be charged up in order to fire, and the longer the bow is charged, the further the player can launch the projectile, while the damage is the same regardless of charge. When charging the bow, an indicator arc similar to that of a grenade will show where the projectile will land and the arc it would follow. Unlike the Boom Bow, the projectile launched is a very fast explosive arrow with a large range of splash damage, but the weapon must be fully charged up for the projectile to explode.

Trivia[]
- The 2 versions of TNTina's Ka-Boom Bow before Chapter 2 Remix were effectively nerfed from its base weapon. The regular Boom Bow does more impact damage, same structure damage and can hold as many shots in reserve as a player can carry Shells. However, TNTina's Ka-Boom Bow has effectively infinite ammo (5 shots stack size) and a much larger splash damage range. It also does not use the base weapon's ammo type, as it uses a unique type of ammo for the weapon.
- TNTina's Ka-Boom Bow was removed from the files in Update v13.00 with all other Chapter 2: Season 2 Mythic weapons, however it did not return to the games files with the Arsenal Limited Time Mode unlike the other Mythic weapons likely due to it using a different weapon ID system than the rest of them, which Arsenal did not seem to support.
- It was largely remade for its return in Chapter 4: Season 4 under the new bow system that was created for Chapter 2: Season 6, with the original Ka-Boom Bow being marked as deprecated internally.
- TNTina's Ka-Boom Bow is the only Mythic weapon to have 3 separate files.
