Fortnite Battle Royale has a wide range of weapons, so players will have no trouble at all finding something that’ll fit their gameplay style. Players who are confident in their accuracy skills can sort to precision-based weapons, such as the Hand Cannon, while gamers who prefer to get up close and engage in fast-paced combat might want to carry an SMG with them instead.
Fortnite: How to Find Underworld Chests and Olympus Chests
Olympus Chests and Underworld Chests grant unique loot to the players that can find them in Fortnite’s Chapter 5 Season 2, but where exactly are they?
The Tactical Assault Rifle is an extremely versatile weapon. It was unvaulted thanks to the release of Chapter 5 Season 2 update v29.30 on April 23. This guide will help players find the Tactical AR in Fortnite so they can try it out for the very first time or test this more recent version of the weapon.
Tactical AR Location
Gamers wondering where to find the Tactical Assault Rifle in Fortnite should know that there are plenty of places to get it, so they don’t have to head to a specific location to get their hands on this weapon. The Tactical AR can be found as floor loot or inside chest containers, so as long as players explore POIs and landmarks thoroughly it shouldn’t be difficult to find, especially since it can spawn in lower rarities, which improves their chances of finding it.
Players who would like to find this weapon without wasting too much time opening containers and searching the floor for loot can talk to Apollo, the Fortnite NPC that inhabits the Summit Temple, northeast of Mount Olympus. Apollo sells an Epic-rarity Tactical Assault Rifle for 300 gold. He has three in stock at the start of the game; this makes it possible for gamers to make sure they can get this weapon early in a match.
Tactical Assault Rifle Stats
Unlike most Assault Rifles in Fortnite, the Tactical AR requires Light Bullets just like SMGs. This weapon works best in medium range combat, but players can use it up close and for long range combat as well, so it is quite versatile.
The Tactical Assault Rifle can deal between 19 and 23 damage, and it has a 1.5x critical damage multiplier, which means, if players hit a headshot, they can inflict between 28.5 and 34.5 damage to their opponent. This weapon has a magazine capacity of 30 bullets and a reload time of about 2.5 seconds, but gamers can easily improve these stats by heading to a Weapon Bunker and adding Mods to it.
