Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1 has unvaulted the Heavy Shotgun after almost three years. Many new players will be introduced to the weapon for the first time. However, the Heavy Shotgun is an old classic, and a favorite of many players before the Pump shotgun meta replaced it.The Heavy Shotgun was vaulted back in January 2019. Since then, other shotguns have dominated the genre, with the Pump Shotgun being adored by the masses.However, before the double pump meta that broke the game, shotgunners in Fortnite preferred to use double Heavy Shotguns because of less swapping time.Tense Davii@Davii111Daily Clip: Dobbel Heavy Shotgun #Fortnite12:44 PM · Jul 1, 2018206Daily Clip: Dobbel Heavy Shotgun #Fortnite https://t.co/a7XUczvMjQIt is now time for OG players to bask in nostalgia as they drop into Chapter 1 locations like Tilted Towers and dominate the first circle with the classic Heavy Shotgun.Where will players find the Heavy Shotgun in Fortnite Chapter 3 Season 1Popular Fortnite leaker Hypex has provided all the loot locations for the Heavy Shotgun in Chapter 3 Season 1.

It now has a fire rate of 1.3 instead of 1, which was the stat of the 2019 vaulted version.One of the unique features of this shotgun is that it can deal more damage to structures than to players in the game. With the recent damage buff, this old classic might be one of the more viable options in the game at the moment.
