Overview

Durability is a Gameplay Mechanic in Fortnite: Battle Royale and Creative that was introduced in Season 4.

Functionality

Functionality[]

Durability gives Weapons and Items limited uses before breaking. Durability's main purpose is to limit the power of items by giving them limited uses so they aren't overpowered. Durability was initially added in Season 4 with the Jetpack but didn't become fully utilized until Chapter 6 where most Mobility and Melee Items have Durability.

Durability has been added to older items that have been reintroduced like the Chainsaw.
