During a game of Battle Royale on Fortnite you will have to make choices. Indeed since the game's launch, Epic Games, has brought a lot of content to its title, between the new weapons and new items it is sometimes complicated to find the perfect combination to defeat the other 99 players. We will therefore explain how optimize the best your 5 available slots for each of the modes: solo, duo and squad.
The rarity
This is the first thing to understand when you get off the bus, there are 5 different types of rarity for your weapons and equipment:
- White: Common
- Green: Uncommon
- Blue: Rare
- Violet: Epic
- Orange: Legendary
A weapon of higher rarity causes more damage, recharges faster, and is a little more accurate than a lower quality weapon. The speed of fire and the number of bulletsare not affected by the rarity of the weapon.
Solo
You will only have 5 slots at your disposal, here is how to best optimize your equipment.
In solo and depending on your level of confidence in your skill and the number of opponents remaining, you will choose either, for a 4 weapons and 1 item equipment (in a duel situation at the end of the game for example), or for a 3 weapons and 2 items equipment, if you have a large number of fights to come. Here we offer you the second solution, more consistent for most players.
Duo
Playing as a duo will allow you to use a combination of 10 slots to combine firepower and survival.
We recommend that you adapt two different types of profiles:
- Support/sniper, long distance: equipped with long-range weapons, it will cover you and keep on it the longest equipment to use, taking advantage of the fortifications of a tower to recover to 100/100 without risk.
- Attacker: specialized in short and medium distance fights, he will be able to treat himself quickly in extreme situations in order to maximize his life span.
Squad
In squad you will have no less than 20 slots at your disposal, here is how to optimize them to the maximum by offering each of your team members a precise role.
We advise you to specialize in one of these roles:
- Support/sniper: equipped with long-range weapons, it will cover you and will take advantage of the fortifications of a tower to recover to 100/100 without taking any risk.
- Support/demolition unit: specialized in the destruction of enemy bases, it is there to put the enemy under constant pressure from projectiles and explosions.
- Offensive support: in pairs with the attacker, he sprays grenades on the opposing team and offers protective support to his team in the event of a problem, in particular by building in front of them if they are on the ground in order to delay.
- Attacker: specialized in short and medium distance fights, he will be able to heal himself quickly in extreme situations in order to maximize his life span.
