Strategy

Strategy[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.

Usage[]

  • When using the Mammoth Pistol in a fight, try to aim at the head of your target. This utilizes the weapon’s critical multiplier of 1.75x, which will increase its base damage to more than 140 in all rarities—enough to fully wipe out the Shield of a player at 200 HP, and nearly enough to do the same to a player with a full Overshield.
  • Alongside its property of being hitscan, the Mammoth Pistol can be seen as an alternative to a Sniper Rifle due to its high damage and long range of effectiveness. Bear in mind, however, that it deals less damage than actual Sniper Rifles, and its lack of a scope puts it at a moderate disadvantage in terms of accuracy.
    • Due to not having a scope, the Mammoth Pistol lacks a Glare. This can allow you to deal high damage to unsuspecting opponents when fighting from cover, but it's also best to also use an Assault Weapon or Submachine Gun to consistently deal damage.
  • A good combo to use in close-quarters combat is firing the Mammoth Pistol, before following up with a Shotgun or spray weapon, such as a fast-firing Assault Weapon or Submachine Gun. The high damage of the former will deal significant damage to your opponent, and you can finish them off by hip-firing your spray weapon or with a well-placed shot of your Shotgun.
    • Be advised that the Mammoth Pistol's bloom may cause you to miss, so be prepared to carry mobility in case things go wrong.
  • In modes where infinite ammunition is disabled, it advisable to use the Mammoth Pistol somewhat sparingly, as to not waste Heavy Bullets - Ammunition - Fortnite Heavy Bullets.
  • If you have good aim, launch yourself through the air with the Lawless Shockwave Rocket Launcher or with a Shockwave Grenade, then shoot your opponent in mid air with the Mammoth Pistol.

Counters[]

  • When engaged with an opponent wielding a Mammoth Pistol, it is advised to carry as much mobility as possible to throw their accuracy off. If you're in the open, try to remain in motion as much as possible.
  • The only other weapon types that can deal higher damage in one shot than the Mammoth Pistol are Shotguns and Snipers. The former is more ideal due to the Mammoth Pistol's unreliable accuracy in close proximity, so closing the distance between your opponent can greatly improve your chance of winning a fight.
  • Having cover can be a substantial advantage, as you can punish your opponent if they miss a shot of the Mammoth Pistol, or safely recover in case you get hit.
