There have been significant changes to the Battle Royale gameplay in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 1, including the addition of a new island, weapon mods, and a revamped loot pool. Players may now tailor their style of gameplay by personalizing their loadouts and experimenting with different weapons. To survive and advance to Victory Royale, players in Zero Build mode rely on the efficacy of their weaponry. The Ballistic Shield is one such weapon, since it can block incoming shots and is equipped with a deadly pistol for on-the-go damage. The item\u2019s resistance to firepower has propelled it to meta-level invulnerability in the game. Players have therefore proclaimed they are \u201cso done\u201d with the Ballistic Shield due to its insurmountability. Fortnite players claim Ballistic Shield is impossible to beat A Reddit user named ItsThatGoatBoy posted their thoughts on the Ballistic Shield item by saying, \u201cTo those saying \u2018just pick up an AR to deal with the Ballistic Shield!\u2019, I had this man dead to rights, 30 HP remaining and he whips out the \u2018NUH UH\u2019 (shield) and completely ignores a total of 435 damage.\u201d In the clip shared with the comment, the player rushed an opponent using their Grapple Blade and kept maintaining pressure on them. Once they got close enough, the user took out their weapon and started shooting at the opponent. To their surprise, the enemy equipped a Ballistic Shield that was effective in blocking lethal Striker AR shots. Looking at the clip, players called out the item for being indestructible and claimed they were done fooling around with it. One such player said, \u201cI\u2019ve yet to get someone else\u2019s shield to stagger even when spraying the hell out of them. I\u2019ve had mine stagger only twice. Ever. I don\u2019t know if it requires shooting a certain area necessarily, but I can definitely say it doesn\u2019t seem to be working as intended. And if it\u2019s \u2018currently working as intended\u2019, I have little faith in Epic.\u201d Another chimed in, \u201cBallistic shield sponging like 14 bullets from a gold AR. This thing is so dumb lmao.\u201d A third user added, \u201cWon three games in a row just spamming shield with an insane 1v3 endgame clutch I shouldn\u2019t have gotten away with. The only time I\u2019ve died is to clingers.\u201d If you\u2019re struggling while trying to counter a Ballistic Shield, check out our guide on how to break it right here at Dexerto.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fortnite players are \u201cso done\u201d with indestructible Ballistic Shield that\u2019s impossible to beat Epic GamesFortnite players are finally done with the Ballistic Shield due to the meta qualities that make it impossible to beat.
