Unleash Destruction in Fortnite with the Ultimate Wood Stake Shotgun - Here's How!

Fortnite introduces a new Halloween event called Fortnitemares, featuring special guests, unique weapons, and terrifying experiences. Within Fortnitemares 2023, players have the opportunity to obtain the Wood Stake Shotgun, a weapon specifically designed to combat the modern-day vampires infesting the game. This shotgun propels wooden stakes to impale the undead bloodsuckers, making it an excellent choice for vampire slayers. However, since there is only one vampire in Fortnite's Chapter 4, Season 4, most players are simply utilizing this weapon to secure a Victory Royale.

For those curious about the effectiveness and location of the Wood Stake Shotgun, this guide will provide all the necessary information. As per tradition, the annual Fortnite Halloween event revolves around a vampire-themed storyline, and the Wood Stake Shotgun proves quite effective not only against vampires but also against other adversaries.

Where To Get The Wood Stake Shotgun

The Wood Stake Shotgun can be easily found by players as it has a random chance of appearing as floor loot, in chests, or holo-chests. It is available in Rare, Epic, and Legendary rarities. An Epic Wood Stake Shotgun can be purchased for 250 Gold Bars from Joni the Red, an NPC located at Kenjutsu Crossing in Chapter 4, Season 4.

Additionally, there is a Mythic version of the gun known as the High Stake's Shotgun. Players have a chance to obtain the High Stake's Shotgun by defeating Revenant Kado Thorne. This powerful weapon boasts enhanced statistics. With its similarity to the classic Heavy from previous Fortnite seasons and its ability to fire Wood Stakes, the Wood Stake Shotgun offers minimal damage drop-off and a magazine capacity of 4 rounds.
