Zapotron and 4 other extremely unique Fortnite weapons
1) Zapotron
The Zapotron is one of the rarest Fortnite weapons. It was only in the game for 30 minutes during the pre-season and removed for not being a right fit. It gave 1000 Structure damage and 125 Body damage with a reload time of only two seconds.

The weapon never returned in the game, which is why only a few players could use it. It was the first and only weapon to use Energy Cells as ammo.
2) Flint-Knock Pistol
Flint-Knock is arguably one of the most fun-to-use Fortnite weapons. Its knockback is high enough to send the player who shoots it a few meters back. It is one of the only few non-sniper weapons to use Heavy Bullets and does considerably high damage to both players and structures.
The unique concept of this weapon was loved by the players back in Chapter 1 Season 8 and used to do various creative trickshots. It was also a great way to jump from high altitudes without any fall damage. The Flint-Knock Pistol is returning during the Fortnite x Pirates of the Caribbean collaboration, which has got the fans quite excited.
3) Proximity Grenade Launcher
The Proximity Grenade Launcher was introduced during Chapter 1 Season 9, bringing a unique twist to projectile weapons in the game. It only detonated when an opponent was close to it, offering a strategic edge. It has no damage falloff and can be reloaded while using the scope. Sadly, it never returned to the active loot pool.
Despite the unique design, it only dealt 70 body damage, making it quite balanced. The high amount of detail and amazing sound effects make it one of the best weapons that should make a comeback in future updates.
4) Mythic Goldfish
The Mythic Goldfish is an extremely rare and unique throwable weapon that is nearly impossible to find. It used to have a 1-in-a-million chance of being obtained by fishing during its initial release in Chapter 2 Season 1. It has been reintroduced with the release of Fortnite Reload game mode, having a 1-in-800 chance of being found in a chest.
This one-shot weapon deals 200 body damage and can be picked up and used again. It features the Flopper fish on a podium, giving it a funny appearance contrasting with its potential.
5) Minigun
The Minigun is arguably one of the most hated Fortnite weapons. It has been vaulted and reintroduced with various adjustments multiple times but never received a positive reception from the community.
Before the major cooldown nerf during Chapter 1 Season 7, it was an unstoppable beast, having no reload and one of the fastest fire rates in the game. Players can still try this weapon against others in the Crazyy Red Vs Blue Creative Map, but its chances of returning to the main game are quite low.
