Look for the short distances
La double barrel shotgun It is a lethal weapon at close range, but almost useless in the middle range and completely useless in the long range. Therefore, you must stay as close to your enemies as possible to use it. The double-barreled shotgun can deal 143 damage in its version epic and 150 in its version legendary a short distance. If we take into account that this weapon can make two shots in a row, you can cause 286-300 points of damage. Almost nothing!
Take advantage of the double shot
With the Fortnite Battle Royale 5.2 update, Epic Games canceled the famous trick with which users carried two shotguns and switched from one to the other as soon as they fired to be able to take another shot without having to reload. Luckily, the double-barreled shotgun allows you to fire two consecutive shots, so don't hesitate and always pull the trigger twice to make sure your opponent does not survive.

If you aim at the body of your rivals it will be easier for you to hit it and taking advantage of the double shot you will finish them with total security in a single thrust.
Build after shooting
In case you miss your shots, build a wall immediately as you will be very close to your opponent and you will need to reload the double-barreled shotgun or switch to another weapon to continue the fight in the title developed by epic Games. The wall will protect you long enough to be able to perform one of the two actions and will prevent your opponent from jumping on you before you can respond.
