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 Suppressed Submachine Gun is ideal paired with a Shotgun, due to their close range abilities, if you do not kill the enemy with the shotgun, switch to the Suppressed Submachine Gun to finish them off.
  • The Suppressed Submachine Gun is best treated as sort of an SMG/AR hybrid, due to it's better than average accuracy, and range, compared to most SMGs, as well as having First Shot Accuracy. Because of this, the Suppressed Submachine Gun is best paired with a long-range DMR or AR for mid-long range, and a high damage Shotgun for close range.
  • The Suppressed Submachine Gun is also a solid choice for a 2 weapon loadout, as it can fill the role of both an SMG and an AR and free up slots for mobility and heals.
  • The Suppressed Submachine Gun can quickly and silently destroy structures from a distance without being noticed.
  • While it may have a slightly slower than average fire rate for an SMG, the raw damage potential, and large magazine, make the Suppressed Submachine Gun a great choice for constant pressure on groups of opponents.

Counters[]

  • The Suppressed Submachine Gun has a slower than average fire rate for an SMG, so using a faster firing SMG at close range can be beneficial.
  • Due to its tighter than average spread than most SMG's, the Suppressed Submachine Gun can be used somewhat accurately at medium range, so unless you can swap to a weapon that has more medium range usability, it is advised to keep some form of cover between you and an opponent wielding the Suppressed Submachine Gun, and closing the gap with Shield Bubbles, or Smoke Grenades.
