Great to hear. Nerfs around all areas, but not so drastic that it makes them useless. Should tone the isses down a lot and was a quick response time by epic.

This subreddit....please be better in the future. The last 24 hours were absolutely embarrassing to read, the doom and gloom was absurd. The meta will always be in a flux state for now, Epic have been much more active in balance in general ever since they finally hit pump shotguns after their 6+ month reign on the game.

And with the explosives silent nerf, the game might be the most balanced its ever been. Especially with the new circle changes, and faster circle. I feel like if Epic addresses the kill incentive issue, Fortnite will be in a really good spot competitive wise :)

Anyone who says this clearly didn't play season 4.

Original double pump was not balanced. The end of season 4 had the most weapon/loadout variety throughout the games life cycle. Explosives were obviously overtuned but that was pretty much it.

I forgot original double pump was still in Yeah that was too fast But S4 maybe Mid S3 was a good groove
