Strategy Guide

Strategy Guide[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • The Holo Rush SMG is a very versatile weapon, as it can be used in a similar manner to the Scoped Burst SMG, Veiled Precision SMG, or Tactical Assault Rifle, as a mid-range primary weapon, or as a close range spray weapon when hipfired.
  • The Holo Rush SMG has very little recoil, allowing it to take advantage of its high fire rate and solid damage very easily at close-mid range.
  • The Holo Rush SMG is best paired with a rifle that performs well in close range situations, such as the Hammer Assault Rifle or Assault Rifle.
  • Despite being a more mid-range oriented SMG, the Holo Rush SMG also has a very tight hipfire spread. If you are accurate in close range, this can be very beneficial.

Counters[]

  • The Holo Rush SMG has a surprisingly slow reload time for an SMG, so enemies wielding it will have to conserve their ammo heavily otherwise they may be stuck in a long full reload. Take advantage of this by attacking whilst they attempt to reload the Holo Rush SMG.
  • The Holo Rush SMG does have a bit of damage dropoff at long range, so weapons like the Deadeye Assault Rifle and MK-Seven Assault Rifle will perform better when against an opponent wielding a Holo Rush SMG at those ranges.

Trivia

Trivia[]

  • The Holo Rush SMG is a slightly reworked Red-Eye Submachine Gun with a Holo-13 Optic and differing animations.
  • The Holo Rush SMG reuses its model and recoil behavior from the Ballistic Hyper SMG, which resembles the Heckler and Koch MP5.[1].
    • Prior to Update v39.20, it also used the same icon, which incorrectly depicted it with a Red Eye Sight.
  • The Holo Rush SMG is the first MP5 designed Submachine Gun to have the weapon's bolt function properly to how the real life MP5's bolt manually lock back upward when reloading. Even performing the famous HK Slap when finished.
    • However this should not be possible, as the Holo Rush SMG lacks the groove for the charging handle to stay locked in place.
    • The reload animation is also properly tweaked for First Person experiences, rather than reusing the Ballistic Hyper SMG's reload animations. This was likely a side-effect of the weapon's ability to reload whilst aiming.
  • The Holo Rush SMG shares its naming convention with the Holo Twister Assault Rifle, being named after the Holo-13 Optic it bears.
