Are you sure you're carrying the best loadout?


We need to be armed to the teeth!

Fortnite is all about mechanics, map knowledge, and rotations. But carrying the best set of weapons is equally as important as being good at the game. Any player, regardless of their skill level, wouldn’t mind using the best loadout to 1v1 against another player.

So, I went into the game and tried out different loadouts on the most famous 1v1 maps in creative. These maps consisted of finest realistics, Clix box fights, Raider 464’s 1v1 maps, and many more. I did this to understand the most versatile loadouts with the best ratio of weapons to heals and utilities.

The heaviest weightage was given in realistic 1v1’s since they replicate the real game very closely. I found some interesting combos of weapons and loadouts. I will share the five best among them below.

 

5. Rotator

This loadout is helpful in rotating, as the name suggests.  The player has two items for repositioning; slap juice to move quickly and shockwave bow to fly up and gain the high ground. This allows you to be on the move always and catch your opponent off guard most of the time.

The auto shotgun paired with the pistol is a good combo as well. If your shotgun runs out of ammo mid-fight, the pistol can easily wrap it up.

Hence this loadout can be effective in a 1v1 fight to a very good extent. You can use the shockwave to close the distance between you and your opponent and fight freely from there.

What’s great about this loadout:

  • Always moving: With two items for rotation, you are always constantly on the move.
  • Catching opponent off-guard: With such quick movement, you’ll catch the opponent off guard in many instances.
  • Versatile: This loadout allows you to have two weapons for close-range fights and utility items to rush into your opponent.

Loadout details:

  • Automatic Maven shotgun.
  • Automatic Pistol
  • Mechanical Shockwave Bow.
  • Slap juice.
  • Minis.

 

4. Healer

This loadout is very good for passive players. This loadout consists of 2 weapons and 3 heals.

The AR in this loadout helps passive players initiate fights, by dealing some good damage before the fight starts. If you deal good damage with the AR, you can rush in to seal the deal.

Whereas on the other hand, if you get damaged, you can base up immediately and heal up to full hp. The 3 healing items allow you to get full hp very quickly hence making it good for passive players.

If someone picks a fight with you in the storm, you can deal some damage and out heal them every time.

What’s great about this loadout:

  • Initiating fights: The AR in this loadout helps you to deal some damage pre-fight which boosts your confidence in the fight.
  • Enhanced healing: With three heals you can’t ask for more. Three heals mean you can regain hp at an insanely fast rate.
  • Surviving storm fights: You can win any storm fight due to the amount of heals in your loadout.

Loadout details:

  • Automatic Maven shotgun.
  • AR
  • Med-mist.
  • Chug splashes.
  • Minis.

 

3. All in

This loadout consists of two weapons, two heals, and one utility item.

This loadout is ideal for aggressive players. The twin-mag SMG paired up with the automatic shotgun is deadly. These both weapons wield the highest DPS in their respective categories. So you’d imagine how destructive their combo would be.

The two heals allow you to quickly regain health up to 150 hp. This allows you to attack back quickly with your SMG and shotty.

Shockwave bow helps you to get closer to the enemy so you can rush into their box with your SMG and finish the deal with the auto shotgun.

What’s great about this loadout:

  • Attack power: The SMG and shotty with high DPS give you great attack power in fights.
  • Constant pressure: The SMG allows you to break boxes to prevent your opponent from healing.
  • Closing distance: If your opponent tries to build up or run, you can catch them in an instant with the shockwave bow.

Loadout details:

  • Automatic Maven shotgun.
  • Twin-mag SMG.
  • Mechanical Shockwave Bow.
  • Med-mist.
  • Minis.

 

2. All covered

This loadout covers all ranges to start fights and is very balanced in terms of picking quick fights. The three weapons are capable of dealing damage at close, mid, and long ranges.

You can use the AR to nick some damage at a longer range, and then immediately get close to the damaged enemy with the shockwave bow. Then at the mid-close range, the SMG could be used to deal damage and stop the player from healing. The shotty then sweeps whatever’s left.

This loadout is very viable in mid-game fights and you can find players easily by moving around with the shockwave bow.

What’s great about this loadout:

  • All ranges: The three weapons are good to deal damage at their own different, respective ranges.
  • Starting fights: Fights can be started with ease, thanks to the AR and shockwave.
  • Quick fights: This loadout allows you to get in the face of your opponent and end fights quickly.

Loadout details:

  • Automatic Maven shotgun.
  • Twin-mag SMG.
  • AR.
  • Mechanical Shockwave Bow.
  • Minis.

 

1. Balance

This is the most balanced loadout out of all the others. A close-range weapon paired with a long-range weapon. Two quick heals and one movement item.

Balance lives up to its name and helps players who play smart in their fights. This loadout shines in the end-game and mid-game which are the hardest parts of the game to survive.

The AR can be used to kill the low-hp players in the end-game from afar. This can help you get valuable elimination points in the end game. The mechanical shockwave bow also helps rotations in the moving zones.

In 1v1’s, you can deal damage with the AR and shockwave to the person with the shotty out. This allows you to quickly sweep up fights.

What’s great about this loadout:

  • Killer in end zones: This loadout is great for fights in the moving zones thanks to the shotty for close fights and AR for long-range duels.
  • Prevents third party: The AR into shockwave into a shotty combo helps finish fights quickly before third parties arrive.
  • Quick heals: The heals in this loadout are great for healing quickly and you can use splashes while moving in the end zones.

Loadout details:

  • Automatic Maven shotgun.
  • AR.
  • Mechanical Shockwave Bow.
  • Chug splashes.
  • Minis.
