Fortnite's recent flip-flop on Rocket ammo has ignited discussion within the community. Just two hours after implementing a nerf, the change was reverted, leaving players questioning the rationale behind the initial adjustment.  Each season of Fortnite typically features a selection of weapons that rise to prominence. From Sub-Zero's Kombat Kit, enabling icy charges and melee attacks, to other unique items, the game consistently offers a dynamic combat experience.

In Chapter 6 Season 2, while players scrambled for the best loot, the development team surprisingly targeted Rocket Ammunition, initially reducing the Sticky Grenade launcher's capacity from 12 to six. This decision was met with confusion, as many considered the launcher a fairly standard weapon.

A recently leaked upcoming weapon is set to shake up Fortnite's dual-wielding mechanics, adding another layer of complexity to the game's arsenal. The quick reversal of the Rocket ammo nerf, implemented and then withdrawn within two hours, further fueled player discussion. Many expressed frustration, questioning the need for such a rapid adjustment in the first place. Given the Sticky Grenade Launcher's reliance on Rocket ammo, it bore the brunt of the criticism.

Some players argued that the Sticky Grenade Launcher is simply overpowered and requires a more substantial rework than just adjusting ammo capacity or drop rates.  Suggestions ranged from tweaking the explosion timer to completely vaulting the weapon. However, others countered that altering the explosion timer would render the weapon ineffective.

The core issue with targeting an entire ammo type is the potential impact on other Rocket-based weapons, limiting their effectiveness and enjoyment.  Many players defend the existence of powerful weapons, emphasizing the skill required to wield them effectively. Some even downplayed the Sticky Grenade Launcher's power, arguing it doesn't hold a candle to some of Fortnite's all-time greatest weapons. For now, both the Sticky Grenade Launcher and Rocket Ammo remain largely unchanged.
