1. What is the Damage Formula?

The damage formula calculates total damage output in Fortnite by multiplying weapon base damage by various multipliers (headshot, weapon rarity, etc.).

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the damage equation:

Where:

• \( Weapon \) — Base damage of the weapon
• \( Multiplier \) — Combined multiplier (headshot, rarity, etc.)

Explanation: The equation accounts for all damage modifiers that affect the base weapon damage.

3. Importance of Damage Calculation

Details: Accurate damage calculation is crucial for determining how many shots are needed to eliminate opponents and choosing optimal weapons.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter weapon base damage and your damage multiplier. All values must be positive numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are typical weapon damages?
A: Common ARs do 30-35 damage, shotguns 70-100+, snipers 90-150 depending on weapon type and rarity.

Q2: What multipliers exist in Fortnite?
A: Headshot multipliers (typically 2x), weapon rarity multipliers, and sometimes special event modifiers.

Q3: How accurate is this calculator?
A: It provides base calculations. Actual in-game damage may vary slightly due to rounding or special conditions.

Q4: Does this account for opponent shields?
A: No, this calculates raw damage. Subtract opponent shield/health to determine actual impact.

Q5: Can I calculate DPS with this?
A: This calculates per-shot damage. For DPS you'd need to factor in fire rate.
