The only thing stopping it from being completely broken is the structure damage

[@Sparkruby]

That makes it a lot more fair for sure.

I can’t even imagine that.

​@@edgardoesstufyep, it shoots faster and it does slightly more damage than it originally did. It's actually stupid good now

Because it's a broken item. It's a sniper, assault rifle, shotgun, smg. And dmr in one. Stupid item.

[@firenzarfrenzy4985]

Not shotgun but yeah pretty much everything else

[@5k_vx]

1. smgs, ars, and dmrs can be categorized into one type of weapon. people usually put this in their first or 2nd slot. 2. its not rlly a shotgun. so basically it can be a sniper or an ar.

[@thelorekeeper8839]

And it was a medkit! Don't forget that!

[@Waylon-Pierce]

i originally thought you had to be in water to recharge it’s ammo, which i think would have balanced it out much better

[@Nater2004]

Because waterbending is broken af. It's literally THE best weapon in the game. Like the only things that can out dps it are shotguns in point blank range and sniper rifle headshots. I think it should be removed.

yeah, from what I've seen it looks like it has 0 recoil and 0 bullet drop

[@astolfo4346]

It also like an ar, smg, sniper hybrid that can also heal you in water AND it has infinite ammo, and is virtually hitscan. Thing is 100% the best mythic in the game rn, wym why

These mythics are insane. Nothing like this should be in the game

[@astolfo4346]

There's been way better mythics in br that have stayed a whole season. This one is goated, but there's definitely been better *cough cough chapter 2 season 2's mythics*

this has been by far one of if not the most broken mythic in the game.

[@artemis_furrson]

​@@astolfo4346Even last season's striker AR or frenzy auto last season were more broken mythics.

[@astolfo4346]

@artemis_furrson the frenzy was pretty good, but nisha's was ass. Low dmg, high recoil, small mag size, terrible attachments. It's only redeeming quality was it's firerate being decent. The striker ar, hyper smg, and the hammer pump were the worst guns last season

[@artemis_furrson]

@@astolfo4346 It had a much higher DPS compared to some of the most broken mythic ARs like Skye's scar or the Foundation MK7. If you hit your shots, you could shred a player's entire health bar in an instant.

Zero recoil & zero bullet drop sounds broken especially with snipers being the way they are rn. The practically drop 3 ft from a 100 m shot.

[@Indy-the-soup]

From the second it came out, before the buff this thing was OP.. nobody believed me but now here we are

Never seen a mythic completely replace all ranged weapons. Like deadass Water and Air Bending can carry you, you dont need virtually anything else except Shield

Lol the waterbending needs to be removed from tournaments and add all others. That thing is stupid OP. I dont know how many kills ive gotten with it but its too many.

its the MK on steroids with no dropoff and hitbox 4x the size of the MK's bullets. Overpowered is an understatement, IT IS the best projectile weapon ever introduced to the game besides this seasons sniper.

[@cow_xd3609]

It also heals you if you're in water!

[@NaivadyaParekh-f7f]

The waterbending is my favorite weapon and you can use it as a AR, sniper, shotgun, pistol, smg, and if you use it right, you can use it as a rpg. It also heals in water which is completely broken

This thing is probably gonna stay either in a week or the whole season it’s just way too broken 😭💀

[@Zulkarnain-nq8ou]

For some reason my accuracy and headshot chance increases significantly when I have less amp or just less shots in a mag which makes gatekeeper unmodified op

[@Xero-Space]

I've been saying this but if you go on the Fortnite subreddit you'll get told it's actually balanced because the sniper is just so OP

[@_wheat856]

It also heals which can be massive for conserving inventory space in the late game and has infinite ammo with a fast reload time

[@Official-Pizzeria-Unit]

No It don't heal you in comp

[@smurtest2001]

i dont know why but aiming with it and hitting long range shots is the most satisfying thing ever

[@thehuntbegins05.57]

It shreds, is accurate, fast and free heals if you're near water.

[@Eclipse_RL315]

It also has a passive healing when ur in water so if the endgame is near water it’s ggs u win

[@storyteller0633]

So, essentially a burst rifle with no recoil, infinite ammo, and easy to obtain? Yep, sounds about right.

Fact the others aren't in comp says a lot. But this thing is still OP. Epic has been doing this crap for a few years now, almost like they wanna chase players away with annoying OP weapons.

[@SilentZombie]

I must admit, I started using this thing more commonly than either AR's or even SMG's and I can't stand Avatar either. There's been a few games I've gotten at least 6 to 8 kills with it or even finishing a game with it.

[@bradleywills9196]

Inf ammo, no fall off damage, good damage, almost no bullet drop, heals in water, good accuracy. It’s literally broken , I’m absolutely shocked it hasn’t been nerfed into the ground. Especially for zero builds after the serious sniper nerfs it’s hard to counter

Not only infinite ammo, but incredibly fast reload speed. And if all of that wasn't enough, as a bonus (even if it doesn't help pros at all) it heals your hp in when you're in water and not in the storm. You don't even have to be swimming, you just need to touch the water. And its healing speed is so fast
