Strategy Guide

Strategy Guide[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • Ex-Caliber Rifle can deal splash damage to opponents around corners and behind cover by firing it at the ground.
  • Ex-Caliber Rifle can be used at closer ranges than most explosive weapons since the self-damage radius is smaller than the opponent-damage radius. Even so, be careful when using the Ex-Caliber Rifle up close to avoid damaging yourself.
  • Ex-Caliber Rifle is an excellent pairing with a high-damage shotgun. Fire your shotgun, fire the Ex-Caliber Rifle, then swap back and forth until the opponent is eliminated.
  • Ex-Caliber Rifle is excellent for countering vehicles. Regardless of where the shot lands, the Ex-Caliber Rifle's explosive swords can damage any opponent inside a vehicle.
  • Ex-Caliber Rifle can be used effectively with a Shockwave Grenade or another similar item. Use the Shockwave Grenade to fly upward into the air, then rain down shots with the Ex-Caliber Rifle.
  • Ex-Caliber Rifle benefits heavily from headshot damage. Always aim for the head with the Ex-Caliber Rifle.
  • The Ex-Caliber Rifle can be very effective when your opponent is in a confined space like a vault. It can also be effective for forcing opponents out of powerful positions such as Port-A-Bunkers or bushes.
  • Instead of regular bullets, the Ex-Caliber Rifle fires a sword that sticks into enemies (or surfaces) and explodes after a short delay. This makes it great for follow-up damage or forcing enemies out of hiding.

Counters[]

  • The Ex-Caliber Rifle shoots projectiles that stick to whatever surface they hit, so keeping this in mind, having some form of mobility item to evade shots from an opponent wielding an Ex-Caliber Rifle can be beneficial.
  • Due to a bug, if you get stuck by the projectile, doing an Emote will cause it to fall off you, allowing you to escape its damage if done fast enough.
