How to defeat Megalo Don in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3

You can either challenge Megalo Don at the Brutal Beachhead or fight him in the wild while he is in a convoy. In either case, you must have good weapons and a decent supply of Shields and meds to defeat this NPC boss.

Although the fight will not be very difficult, it is far from a stroll in the park. Your prime objective will be to take out the Wasteland Grunts and the Wasteland Elites before fighting the main boss. Doing so will prevent unwanted damage from the pesky guards.

Once that is done, you can use your best weapons to break the shield of Megalo Don and then DPS him down with your primary weapon of choice. Since shotguns are pretty overpowered in this meta, you can opt to use a golden shotgun to be up, close, and personal with Megalo Don while leaving some shells in him.

If you find this boss in a convoy, you can use a vehicle to do all the damage. It is advisable to have a Cowcatcher and a Turret fitted to your vehicle to be most effective against Megalo Don in Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 3.

Getting these items will give a lot of leverage over the other players on the map. So, if you have the right gear and mindset, it is advisable to contest Megalo Don for his loot.
