Strategy Guide[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • While the Twin Hammer Shotguns may have lower than average damage overall, the fire rate is one of the fastest in the class, beat out by only the Drum Shotgun, the Primal Shotgun, and the Frenzy Auto Shotgun. But what those weapons have in a slightly higher DPS, the Twin Hammer Shotguns gain back by having the ability to two shot with headshots in any game mode, making the Twin Hammer Shotguns heavily rewarding of accuracy.
  • One of the other major advantages the Twin Hammer Shotguns have compared to other automatic Shotguns, is it's surprisingly fast reload speed. This, combined with a large magazine of 10 rounds, means that there's less downtime to getting back into a fight when you need to reload.

Counters[]

  • An easy counter to the Twin Hammer Shotguns is to use a high-damage, slower fire rate Shotgun such as the Iron Pump Shotgun or the Hammer Pump Shotgun. This is especially the case for the Iron Pump Shotgun as in higher rarities it can eliminate enemy players in one headshot in Builds playlists, making the two-tap potential of the Twin Hammer Shotguns less impactful.

Weapon ID[]

The Twin Hammer Shotguns is referred to as Shotgun Auto Dual Dragon Cart in the files.
