Fortnite OG throws players back to the very beginning of Battle Royale, recreating the Chapter 1, Season 1 experience. This nostalgic mode features the original map and loot pool, making it crucial to understand the available weapons and items for a successful, retro-style victory. The Fortnite OG loot pool is dynamic, with the weapon meta shifting as the game progresses through seasons and new returning weapons are introduced.
All Fortnite OG Assault Rifles
The return of hitscan weapons makes Assault Rifles potent in Fortnite OG. However, inconsistent bloom on some weapons can be problematic. The standard Assault Rifle is generally the most reliable, especially considering the Scoped Assault Rifle's inaccurate scope.
Assault Rifle
| Rarity | Common | Uncommon | Rare | Epic | Legendary |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Damage | 30 | 31 | 33 | 35 | 36 |
| Magazine Size | 30 | 30 | 30 | 30 | 30 |
| Fire Rate | 5.5 | 5.5 | 5.5 | 5.5 | 5.5 |

| Structure Damage | 30 | 31 | 33 | 35 | 36 |
The Assault Rifle's predictable bloom, manageable magazine size, and solid damage make it a top choice. Its reliability at various ranges makes it a staple for any player, particularly the rarer, more powerful variants.
Burst Assault Rifle
| Rarity | Common | Uncommon | Rare | Epic | Legendary |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Damage | 27 | 29 | 30 | 36 | 37 |

| Structure Damage | 27 | 29 | 34 | 36 | 37 |
The Burst Assault Rifle's three-round burst and high bloom make it less reliable than other options. Its inconsistent nature can easily punish missed shots.
Scoped Assault Rifle
| Rarity | Rare | Epic | Legendary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Damage | 23 | 24 | 37 |
| Magazine Size | 20 | 20 | 20 |

Alongside the Sniper Rifles, the Scoped Assault Rifle offers first-person aiming. However, its bullet trajectory deviates from the reticle, making it challenging to use effectively.
All Fortnite OG Shotguns
Shotguns dominate close-quarters combat in Fortnite Chapter 1 Season 1. Their high damage and fast fire rate, combined with the "Double Pump" technique, provide a significant advantage.
Pump Shotgun

| Structure Damage | 90 | 95 | 110 | 119 | 128 |
The Pump Shotgun's 2.5x headshot multiplier and the Double Pump strategy make it incredibly lethal. Rapidly switching between two Pump Shotguns minimizes reload downtime.
Tactical Shotgun
