On November 9, 2021, Fortnite received the 18.30 update patch and one of the most important changes it brings is related to the pistol, which has been replaced with a new combat variant.
This change is not related to the “war effort”, in which players spend gold bars to vote for the weapons they want to return to the game. Epic Games simply decided that after introducing the Combat Assault Rifle back into the game, they should make balance changes with the pistol.
The shots from the new combat pistol do much more damage than the standard pistol from Fortnite. In addition to this exceptional power, it has low bullet dispersion, but is accompanied by strong recoil. It will be necessary to get used to using this weapon again, as the confrontations with it will be more chaotic.
And what happened to the standard pistol? He’s already gone to the vault. We can find the combat pistol in chests, the ground and when fishing
The pistol is not the only weapon that has undergone changes with the 18.30 update patch. Fortnite. The parallel rifle received some improvements. It now reaches its superpowered state – that is, when it is “about to overheat” – faster and has more precision.
Remember that Jinx Arcane’s outfit, from the new Netflix series based on LoL, is still available in the store.
