This Is The Best Loadout in Fortnite Reload Zero Build (Zero Build Tips & Tricks) 

i really enjoy when fortnite loot pools have such good variety that you're not really using one single loadout all games. it's nice to have different options that are all completely valid and useful instead of having to stick to a single loadout the entire way through, and since this gamemode is so chaotic and fast paced it kinda forces you to be flexible with your weapon choices and i find that so much fun, what i liked about older seasons like chapter 2 season 7. really hoping this mode gets the love it deserves by epic, having more POIs from fortnite's past while having a mix of weapons from chapters 1 - 4 sounds like a blast

Tac and hammer. 100% I’d take a grey tac and a green hammer over other guns. My team (which are my kids) know what I want so they’re always on the lookout for me.

Biggest sweat mode ever, disgusting how they sweat there I have never seen so many superhero skins as the last few days

I always love your skin combos. Thanks for the awesome video and coverage for this new mode!

Lever, hammer, bunkers, big pots and shocks

I’ve played a bunch of games so far I’ve seen the exotics the mythic burst but still haven’t seen the mythic MK yet

The lever action shotgun is easily the worst shotgun in the game for reload’s loot pool. It hits for a pillow fight even up close, and just super inconsistent. It’s not even worth picking up its higher end rarity versions. You’re better off using a green pump/tac shotgun over its purple and gold rarity.

Much appreciated as always. I wondered how good the hammer AR was as I haven't used it much yet so this guide helps alot.

Jake thank you so much for all your videos - I started to “play” (hide) the very end of chapter 2 but it was only from watching your videos at the start of chapter 3 that I started to actually play properly and get better. For anyone who came to the game this chapter go back and look at some of Jake’s older videos. I do sometimes for nostalgia for older chapters and seasons but with the load out now in Reload it’s quite useful 😊

I tend to prefer crash pads over shockwaves. They appear more commonly and send you further horizontally which is the direction you’re most likely to go in. You can also chain them together quite easily by using them in the air. Additionally they can be used by the whole team for movement which is very important. I’d say the downside to them is that you lose the ability to break your way out of builds but I think that’s negated by the upsides, especially in ZB.

Pump/tac, tac/smg, sniper/ infantry rifle, shockwaves/bunkers, heals

5:23 I find infantry rifle - tac quite good and usable

Me fave loadout is -Shotgun: Either Tac or Pump -AR: Hammer, AR/Scar, Heavy (only if I use a tac shotgun) -Heals -Bunkers, but if I cant find them I use a bolt action sniper or the infantry rifle to increase my long distance damage output until I can stock up on bunkers -The mobility I can find, crash pads, grappler or shockwaves

I tend to have a two gun load out with 2 heals and a mobility item. I like to get an AR for mid/long range and then some form of shot gun for close range. I find that works but I only started playing Fortnite half way through season 2 so all these OG guns are new to me 😊

bit late to the video but my laid out for current Reload ZB is: Pump/Charge, Hammer, Shockwaves, Bunker, Minis

im probably just weird but i found my favorite loadout being 3 gun, Pump+Tac SMG+AR (preferably Hammer)+Shields/Splashes+Shockwaves. I enjoy the Tac SMG purely because of its bloom being the most consistent of the 3 smgs in the lootpool, as the Stinger widens a good amount over time, while the Tac SMGs starts decently tight and stays that way. Sometimes I will go 2 gun tho and in that case I want the Tac instead of the Pump

Thus far, my loadout is typically: Pump Shotty, Tac SMG, Assault Rifle, Big Pots, Shockwaves. I tried using the infantry rifle a few times and I seem to be unable to hit people with it, like I am firing blanks. It looks like it is hitting them at a distance but I'm not. I legit have better luck hitting people at a distance with the Tac SMG. No one I've played with has had this problem. It's literally a "me" problem. As for heals, I take the big pots because they are more common than chugs, and there are vending machines that sell them. And for the mobility, while I prefer shockwaves, ultimately it's whatever I fill up on. I'm not gonna drop a whole stack of bounce pads or a full grappler for 2 shockwaves. While I prefer the pump, I'll take the Lever of a high rarity. I do enjoy the animation on the lever, the way it flips when chambering the next round makes it super easy to know when to fire the next shot whereas the subtle hand motion for the pump can be missed unless I take my eye off my opponent. Going forward, I think I might drop the tac smg and AR for the hammer because it can kinda serve both rolls, and free up a slot for extra heals, like med kits. In solos I'd opt for double mobility, but in team modes I'll opt for double heals.

The Stinger has more range than most of the other smgs (including the Twin mag) so it's Viable to do a Shotgun SMG Only, BUT the damage is where you struggle. Also, IMO I think the normal AR is better for build mode rather than using it for ZB.

This is exactly what I wanted. Thanks Jake!!

I've been doing tactical shotgun, hammer AR, and infantry rifle or sniper, seems to work good for me.

I used the ak for all my matches but trust me when i say the one video that you said to try the hammer.......the blooms is non existent.

Jake sooo good I might hawk tuah on that thang 😂😂😂

Gotta agree with you here, absolutely love that AR

Tac Shotty, Smg, AR, Bunker and Shields

Hi Jake. Another great video. Can you tell me how on earth you slide and heal???? I just cant seem to be able to do it, I just stop sliding. Maybe? Can you do a video of how to do tricks like that? I am on controller n learnt everything I know from you. Hope you can help? Thanks again Jake. Don’t stop. Cheers. Dan.

I like the ar, pump, smg bunkers and heals

Either Hammer Ar tac/pump Bolt action/hunting rifle grappler/shockwaves and shield

my favorite loadout splashes crash pads og ar og pump for zb

That play at 4:27 was wild.

I got the golden trophy. I have never seen it before.

I got a Midas drum gun yesterday

Honestly, they need to add combat smg, mk7, red eye and the twin mag to the loot pool. The third person bloom weapons are honestly cancerous to use. I’ve lost so many fights that I was winning, just to lose because of bloom. Probably should also add the havoc and maven.

I have to play with randoms an it's pain I have no friends that play this 😅

w thanks jake!

i personally use SMG and AR since shot guns are ass in my opinion

I killed a guy today and he dropped 3 exotic weapons... where'd he get them??? Sorry you mentioned thr answer in the video... I just thought he knew where to get them because he had 3.

Wow

Having only played the latest chapters, this was a really useful content. I’m not familiar with most of these weapons except from creative so a guide was super useful. Only wish some of the random teammates on ‘fill’, would watch a vid and learn to carry cover items instead of trying to barge in like an action hero with plot armour.

I really want to like this game mode but I just cannot get around OG weapons with too much bloom. I could never dream of hitting someone while they are gliding but I get regularly beamed out of the sky.

I use pump scar shockwaves grappler and heals

Can you make a gun tier list for reload? 👀

Thanks for the tips I've been getting bored of regular br reload sounds like a lot of fun

Good video Jake. One thing I would add is that we can fish in reload an their are shield fish in the mode. They work about as fast as slash do. An are a great optoin if you fish like at dusty docks for example early on. An then carry what ya need. You used the should fish first, carry some splash, or you used some splash them carry the shield fish. Until you can get a good amount of splash later on. Really all depends on weather or not another team lands were you first land at or not. You get a quite landing your good to fish. If not then, if the storm falls in you after the fight, then you hot plenty of time of to fish.. Played a whole match yesterday am won an the whole team never left retail roll casue thr storm fell on us. So, it can happen.

What if you want a sniper in your loadout

Anyone wana team up? I’m tired of getting terrible random team mates 😢

Infantry, Tac, Bush Bombs, Bunkers, either of the Chug items. Because I’m a team player and I care more about the team’s success and safety over prioritizing my own safety.

I’m running Tac, Infantry and Stinger

Never played OG so aiming is deff tough

How come you dont use snipers?? Like yh the revives are 5 seconds but you can waste so much heals for your opponent if you just spam sniper them yk?

My preferred loadout is Heavy AR Tac shotgun Bunks Grappler Heals But tbh i can take any ar or shotgun besides regular ar or lever action, the scar has too much bloom imo and the lever action is just worse than any other shotgun i use

Thank you Jake, that's exactly what i was hoping from this video...your preferences of rarity vs the item Really helps given your experience with the game 👍👍

In the moment is so true. I have no mic and the only Vic I had this season in this mode I had a gold pistol. I always drop pistols. But I got on a roll. 13 kills later my squad won.

Exact same loadout as me, great vid. Im the same im so happy they brought the hammer in its one of my favourite guns ever in fortnite.

I use the ranger shotgun from time to time but I like the pumps and autos more I like the hammer ar it's quite good

Me hammer ar or pistol with its new buff tac bunkers grapple heals
