Weaponry (Battle Royale)

For Save The World weapons, see Weaponry (Save the World).This page lists all weapons and weapon stats for Fortnite: Battle Royale. A critical hit (aka headshot) deals double the base damage. Shotguns, due to the spread of the weapon, will have varying damage outputs depending on shot accuracy and distance from the target. When comparing damage to DPS, remember that a high damage rating won't always equal a high damage per second due to varying firing rate and reload speeds.

Rarity

While exploring the map, players can discover weapons, each with varying levels of rarity. Stats depend on rarity, ranging from common to legendary. Rarity and its corresponding color, from weakest to strongest, goes as follows:

Common
Uncommon
Rare
Epic
Legendary

Notes

Shot accuracy can be increased by standing or crouching in place and aiming down the sights until the cross-hairs come together.
At less than 50 meters, assault rifles deliver maximum damage; however, as shot range increases, damage output decreases. At the maximum range of 100 meters, the assault rifle will only deliver 65% of its typical damage.
Players might consider aiming for the head with the first shot, as its accuracy is the best. Subsequent shots tend to be less accurate, so aiming for the body thereafter is suggested.

Trivia

The Epic and Legendary versions of the Assault Rifle and Burst Assault Rifle are frequently referred to by the community as "Scar's" and "Famas", stemming from their real-life counterparts of the same name. They are the only Assault Rifles to receive this "special treatment", despite that many of the other AR's real-life counterparts are much more well known and frequently used than these weapons.
- The following is a list of all the weapons Fortnite's AR's are based on, with links to their respective Wikipedia articles:
  - Assault Rifle (Common through Rare) - M16 rifle (also known as the Colt AR-15)
  - Assault Rifle (Epic and Legendary) - SCAR-L
  - Burst Assault Rifle (Common through Rare) - IMI Galil
  - Burst Assault Rifle (Epic and Legendary) - FAMAS
  - The Scoped AR seems to be loosely based off of the H&K G36, H&K 416, and the AK-12, with modifications that make the weapon act more like a DMR (designated marksman rifle), which combines certain elements of both assault rifles and sniper rifles.
  - Thermal Scoped AR - M4 Carbine with a thermal scope, front grip, and unusable flashlight and laser sight attachments (all of these come standard issue in US military SOPMOD kits intended for Special Forces units).
  - Suppressed AR - SCAR-H (with an attached suppressor).
  - Heavy AR - AK-47 or AKM

Despite having a grip to lower vertical recoil, the Thermal Scoped AR still has a relatively high amount of vertical recoil.
The Epic and Legendary models for the fully automatic Assault Rifle have several gashes and scars cut into them, a reference to the gun which the model is based on.<onlyinclude>
