New Stim-Gun concept would allow players to heal over long distances in Fortnite Jmzofficial \/ Epic GamesReddit user \u2018jmzofficial\u2019 has created a new concept around a so-called \u2018Stim-gun,\u2019 which would allow teammates to be healed over long distances in Fortnite. The gun would operate much like the game\u2019s Grappler, holding a limited number of charges until it runs out of uses. Jmzofficial stated that the concept item would carry a number of 5 uses in total before it would automatically be dropped from a player\u2019s inventory. He stated that the purpose of the gun would be for \u201cthe ranged healing of teammates, if they\u2019re in a bad situation.\u201d That could prove incredibly useful in Fortnite, which doesn\u2019t yet feature such a method. He likewise mentioned that self-healing would be a major perk of the gun, and that it would recover 20 health points per use. He also discussed the possibility of the gun having an AOE (area of effect) use. This way, if a shot were to miss, it would still heal a teammate as long they were standing with a certain radius of the missed healing round. The gun could even introduce an interesting \u2018medic\u2019 role to Fortnite, much in the style of Team Fortress 2 or Overwatch. Jmz appeared to take a liking to that concept, stating that it could make the popular 50v50 Limited Time Mode, \u201ca lot more fun.\u201d Read More: When is the new Port-a-Fortress coming to Fortnite? Date and time announced for v5.41 update – In addition, he made sure to note that the gun wouldn\u2019t be able to be used on enemies. Thus, if players happened to misfire, there would be no chance for the stray shot to accidentally heal enemy players. Although there is no hint of this type of item coming to Fortnite anytime soon, it could end up being a possibility, as Epic Games have been known to take inspiration from online concepts in the past.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
