Revisiting Some of Fortnite's MOST OVERRATED Items of ALL TIME...

My biggest disagreement would be with the Flint-knock. The gun isn't overrated at all. The sheer mobility the gun provides is insane, and that's what most people used it for. People knew that otherwise, the gun was mid at best. I don't remember many people claiming it was ever the best, but the most fun. For me, people were always hailing the hand cannon as the best pistol (that is, before the tactical pistol and mammoth pistol were things in the game)

The hammer AR is good if you can control the horizontal recoil. Same with this seasons Harbinger SMG, but they can be pretty useful when you learn them.

The Hammer AR is just like the hand cannon. If you’re a pro with your aim or mechanics it is godly. If you’re not it just doesn’t hit that hard

the fact the Pump Shotgun, SEVERAL TIMES, has had people striking the game for it to return when Epic just wanted to innovate a bit is so annoying. I love the gun, but I wish people would stop glazing tf out of it. Havoc Pump and arguably most shotguns from C5 are better than it guys.

The Boogie Bomb might be extremely situational, but it’s funny as hell when it actually works

Flint knock is underrated imo I barley see anyone talking about it😭😭

The pump and the scar were just the best guns in the game at the time, that’s why it was so loved. The havoc and some special ARs are much better but from the nostalgia from winning with them keeps them highly rated.

As a flintknock user in creative pit (gold omegarok if everyone has come across me) I can confirm the mammoth pistol is better because it has a faster reload and does more damage, but that’s also because it’s a legendary version, if the flintknock had one it would be insane. I use the flintknock because when play on Xbox cloud (iOS) it’s not exactly accurate with what im doing, so if I miss my shot I at least get some distance between me and the enemy, or I send them flying away if we’re high up. However if you are a extremely good player with extremely good aim I’d have to say the flintknock is better than the mammoth pistol because you can use the flintknock for mobility. And 180 for a headshot is pretty lethal even if you’re high up in the air, sometimes even I’ll turn around and when they edit the wall I fire so I fly inside their box and past them and then kill them with a shot gun. You can’t do that with a mammoth pistol.

I didn't even knew the Hammer AR had a horizontal recoil. I never knew that somehow I guess I was just so use to to I guess? it may be due to being on keyboard mayhaps?

Impulses are massively overrated too. Shocks are so much better. People just feed into the nostalgia and go off about how good the impulses and revolvers and what nots were when they really wouldn’t survive today.

Disagree on the flint knock it’s great movement and 180 damage headshots and I ran it like crazy whenever it was in the game especially fortnite og season

The Standard AR hasn't really changed much, I think we were just so used to actually accurate weapons that, we forgot how the bloom is. Because realistically, it didn't really change at all. Even In Creative now it feels like how it always been.

Pumps are overrated but the new shotguns are shit - epic also need to stop making everything automatic bc everything feels clunky now - tac shotgun and double barrel best shotguns

hard disagree on the flint-knock. nobody ever claims it's a good weapon, they always talk about the mobility. having mobility in this game is unbelievably important that if a single weapon can provide near infinite mobility, that weapon has to be one of the best weapons in the game. you never use the flint-knock to actually shoot someone, unless you're trying to meme. i also disagree with the boogie bomb, too. it's not that hard to only hit your opponent, it's a hard counter to any vehicle, and if you're not carrying a shotgun, then honestly, why are you even playing this game.

Flint knock is my favorite gun in Fortnite. It’s so fun to use and it always saves me a utility spot because I don’t have to carry shockwaves with it lol

How dare he diss my baby the flint knock😡😡😡

the hammer is so good and accurate, the clip size is just too small

The newest version of the heavy sniper also does like 600 damage to vehicles which would be awesome to use this season

The Heavy Sniper when it first launch was just... the best weapon in the game man, 157 damage (the legendary), it would break ANYTHING with 1 shot, the bullet travel was faster... but now with all the nerfs? its just ass bro Sniper glare, 132 damage (the legendary version), it doesn't even break a brick wall... so sad

You said it's better, but I really think the mammoth pistol and deagle are much more overrated than the flint knock. I just don't really like the 3rd person pistols, but the flint knock provides mobility and has been easier for me to hit shots. Absolutely agree with hammer too.
