Strategy Guide

Strategy Guide[]

Calculated - Emote - Fortnite This section outlines a strategy.
Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.
  • Players should aim above targets at long ranges to compensate for bullet drop. The further the target the higher the player should aim.
  • Players should aim in the direction a target is moving at long ranges to compensate for the bullet travel time. The faster and further the target, the further the player should aim.
  • If looking to choose between a Hunting Rifle, and a scoped Sniper Rifle, keep in mind that the Hunting Rifle has less bullet drop, but does less damage, and lacks a scope.
  • As the Hunting Rifle lacks a scope, the weapon does not emit a Sniper Glare, so you will be less noticed by enemies when aiming.

Counters[]

  • The Hunting Rifle has a faster bullet travel speed, but harsher bullet drop than most Sniper Rifles, so keeping at a range that would make the Hunting Rifle harder to use when engaged with an enemy wielding it is beneficial.
