Fortnite players claim \u201chilariously overpowered\u201d Chapter 5 weapon needs more nerfs FortniteFortnite players are united against an \u201coverpowered\u201d menace of a weapon in Chapter 5 Season 3. It\u2019s a weapon so powerful that players are sacrificing themselves in the storm to keep it out of play. As Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3 approaches its end, players can still get several mythics in the game. This includes the Conductor Hand Cannon, Cerberus\u2019 Gatekeeper Shotgun, and Megalo Don\u2019s Nitro Fists. Despite these powerful options, one shotgun in particular had players calling for it to be kept out of reach. Players went as far as finding ways to get it off the map entirely. On Reddit, a Fortnite player shared a screenshot captioned, \u201cSacrificed myself so no one would have to die to this gun.\u201d Though they never explicitly mentioned the gun, the community quickly identified it: Oscar\u2019s Frenzy Auto Shotgun. In the comments, Fortnite players voiced their frustrations against the weapon that can only be claimed by dueling the NPC. One exclaimed, \u201cWent against it in 5 matches in a row when I least expected it and each time I\u2019d die. I had to take a mental pause and just went to play festival.\u201d A second player recalled the history of Oscar\u2019s Frenzy Auto Shotgun: \u201cWhen it first launched in Chapter 5 Season 1, it was hilariously overpowered.\u201d Epic Games have since nerfed this shotgun by reducing its fire rate and headshot multiplier in update v29.10. That said, this player states that, despite those nerfs, \u201cOscar\u2019s can still shred.\u201d Other players took a lighter approach to the dramatic effort to keep Oscar\u2019s Frenzy Auto Shotgun out of reach. They joked, \u201cIt\u2019s a noble sacrifice, but you could have left it on storm hidden.\u201d Another player joined in the fun, \u201cThat would\u2019ve been the way to go, but I guess the power of it melted his brain.\u201d This Fortnite season seems dominated by overpowered weapons like the Nitro Fists and Magneto Power. The one element in Fortnite that seems to be lacking in power, according to player reports, is the Tesla Cybertruck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
