Fortnite v14.30 patch notes

Combat Shotgun buff

The Combat Shotgun has been a favourite of many players since it was added back in Season 9.

It's increased range and high-fire rate made it deadly in the right hands, however since its return this return with a decreased fire-rate, damage and magazine size its safe to say it isn't quite as favoured as it once was.

Well Epic have heard the cries and they have answered them with the Combat Shotgun receiving a considerable buff.

Combat shotgun stats:

• Rare
  • Old Damage: 50
  • New: 57
• Epic
  • Old Damage: 53
  • New: 60
• Legendary
  • Old damage: 55
  • New: 63

It will retain its current reload time, magazine size and firing rate, but the as you can see above the raw damage has increased and yet substanstially.

The introduction of cars into Fortnite was one of Chapter 2 Seaon 4's big changes and now they are getting their very own LTM.

Players will need to race around the map to pick up tickets which once completed will reveal a finish line. 

The Rally Royale LTM won't be live at the release of v14.30 but is expected "later in the week," according to Epic.
