How to get and master the Mammoth Pistol in Fortnite?
Discover Fortnite's latest weapon, the Mammoth Pistol, in the v25.20 content patch. Learn how to obtain it and its effectiveness against enemies in this comprehensive guide.
After much anticipation, the v25.20 content patch for Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 has finally been made available. Players are now ready to win more games and level up more quickly in order to finish their Battle Pass before the season's end, which is in one month, following the conclusion of the Summer Escape event.
However, carrying strong weapons in your inventory is necessary to defeat enemies, and Epic Games has added just the right ones for you to use. The all-new Mammoth Pistol replaces the Heavy Sniper Rifles as the game's return to one-shot action.
Here is a comprehensive guide because, like other weapons, the Mammoth Pistol leaves players wondering how to get it and how effective it is against enemies.
The Fortnite method for obtaining the Mammoth Pistol
Players in Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3 can find the Mammoth Pistol with ease on the ground, in chests, holo-chests, or from a flying drone. Look around the island for any vending machines that sell pistols because you might be able to purchase the weapon from them.
The new Mammoth Pistol is a single-shot, heavy-ammunition pistol with a large calibre that deals a crushing blow to enemies if you hit them with a shot. It is essentially an updated version of the Hand Cannon from Chapter 1.
Is the MK-Alpha a good Fortnite weapon?
Players who value accuracy with their weapons and enjoy dealing a lot of damage with a single shot should choose the Mammoth Pistol as their go-to mid to long-range weapon. The Mammoth Pistol is a more dependable weapon despite resembling the Hand Cannon in appearance and having a smaller crosshair.
As shown in the image above, the pistol deals 90 headshot damage with a single shot, nearly depleting your opponent's shield or health bars. The Mammoth Pistol can only fire one round per magazine, as opposed to the Hand Cannon's seven-round capacity, and needs to be reloaded like a sniper with heavy ammunition.
By turning on the Pistol Recycle and Desperate Reload Augments, players can, however, maximise the weapon's effectiveness. All game modes and rarities of it are currently accessible.
