Diving into the new *Fortnite* mode, *Ballistic*, can feel like stepping into a high-stakes arena where every choice matters. But don't worry, The Escapist is here to guide you to victory with the ultimate loadout for this first-person, squad-based showdown.
Best Items to Choose in Fortnite Ballistic
In *Ballistic*, you start with limited credits, but as you progress through rounds, your earnings will soar. This currency is your ticket to enhancing your loadout with weapons, Flex Gadgets, and more. Here's what you should prioritize at the start of each round:
- Impulse Grenade Kit
- Striker AR (2,500 credits)
- Alternate Weapon: Enforcer AR (2,000 Credits)
- Flashbang x2 (400 credits)
- Instant Shield x2 (1,000 credits)
Starting with the Impulse Grenade Kit is a smart move. It's your key to rapid movement across the map, crucial in this Search & Destroy-style mode where timing is everything. Whether you're rushing to defuse a bomb or to defend your planted explosive, quick movement can be the difference between winning and losing.
For your primary weapon, the Striker AR is the go-to choice in *Ballistic*. Though its recoil can be challenging, mastering it rewards you with high damage and mobility, perfect for close-quarters combat. If you prefer a more defensive stance, the Enforcer AR is your friend, offering substantial damage from a distance and ideal for holding down the plant site.
Flashbangs are a non-negotiable part of your arsenal. They are among the most effective in FPS games, stunning enemies and giving you the perfect opportunity to strike. Pairing them with the Instant Shield can turn the tide of battle, providing that crucial edge in intense firefights where every second counts.
