10. Anvil Rocket Launcher (Best For Mid Range)

The lock-on rocket launcher.
You know that time when it’s the end of the game and you’re surrounded by bushes. The enemy is nowhere to be seen and you’re scared for your life. Or maybe the time when you leave an enemy on 1hp and he runs away in a car, leaving you frustrated. Well, the Anvil Rocket Launcher is great for these scenarios since it locks onto the target, leaving nowhere to run for the enemy.
What makes Anvil Rocket Launcher Great:
Lock-on ability to ensure the rocket hits every time.
100-110 high damage to players depending on rarity.
Very high vehicle damage to ensure no enemy gets away.
Want to break a piece of a building in one shot? Say no more.
If you are a decent sniper then this gun is the best you can get in Fortnite currently. It has high damage shots ranging from 120-132 on the body, and 180-198 on headshots, depending on rarity. If you have an enemy being sneaky in his builds or a house, one shot from this bad boy will destroy whatever structure it hits in one shot; due to insanely high structure damage. This can be used to catch enemies off guard.
This shotgun is a sniper combined into a shotgun. Sounds weird right? This newly introduced shotgun has insanely high damage range and can deal high damage even on a bit longer distances. The ranger shotgun can change the fight in a second due to very high damage shots.
What makes Ranger Shotgun great:
Very high damage single shots.
High damage on longer ranges than normal shotguns.
If you have been playing this game for a long time, you might know this gun as the heavy AR. Ranger AR is an auto rifle with a slower firing speed than other ARs in the game. But this slow firing speed does come with higher damage numbers making it a fair trade.
This is the modern pump shotgun of Fortnite, the OGs will know what I’m talking about. But even if you are a new player, this is a pump-action shotgun. This gun is the best gun to fight with at extremely close ranges due to its tight spread and high damage. Trust me, you won’t look good shooting with this at an enemy any further than 20 meters.
What makes Striker Pump Shotgun great:
Very high damage at close range. Easy to find. Tight bullet spread.
If you want a fast-firing SMG with decent damage at close range, this is your gun. It's very easy to find and can deal lots of damage in a very short amount of time. Do remember though, that the high damage and fire rate do come at the cost of high recoil. If you don’t have a large mousepad, maybe think twice before using this smg.
If one shot wasn't deadly enough, how about two at the same time?
This burst AR is the strongest AR for long ranges and even has a mythic version. It shoots two bullets at a time and deals strong amounts of damage per hit. Since two bullets are fired at a time, you usually would deal twice the damage as other ARs since both the bullets have a chance of hitting. This gives the AR a higher DPS and makes the kill time shorter.
This shotgun will kill you before you know what hit you.
Here you have the best shotgun in the game. This shotty deals huge amounts of damage in a short amount of time due to its very fast fire rate. It has a large magazine too, holding 12 bullets and every one of them deals good damage at short to medium ranges. Hence, it’s arguably the best shotgun in Fortnite.
2. MK-Seven Assault Rifle (Best For Short-Mid Range)

This thing can shred your enemies at the mid range and it looks cool too.
This auto AR is a shredder at close to mid-ranges with even a mythic version that’s one of the deadliest weapons in Fortnite. It has a shockingly high DPS and can change the tide of a fight in a second, literally. This AR also has a very large clip size of 35 bullets ensuring you don’t run out of bullets mid-fight. This magazine size is a very good combo with a very fast fire rate.
Don’t judge this gun by its small looks since it's arguably the best weapon in Fortnite right now for close to medium-range fights. Stinger SMG has the highest DPS and is also available in a mythic version. It also has a large magazine with 30 bullets and a very fast reload time, alongside a tight spread for a longer range.
