If you want to try out the Fortnite Seven Cluster Cannon for yourself, here’s everything you need to know.
How to Get the Seven Cannon in Fortnite
You can get the Seven Cluster Cannon in Fortnite Chapter 7 Season 2 through chests, floor loot, Supply Drops, and Vending Machines. Since the item is available in both Epic and Legendary rarities, you should not have a hard time coming across it in Chapter 7 Season 2, especially the Epic variant. Apart from the regular loot sources, you can also get the Seven Cluster Cannon at the Fortnite Rivalries Gear Machines, which sell the weapon in exchange for Rival Credits.
How to Use the Seven Cluster Cannon in Fortnite
The Seven Cluster Cannon is one of the more unique Fortnite weapons we’ve seen in Fortnite in a while. Functioning like a rail gun, you can charge up the Seven Cluster Cannon to fire a primary shell that, upon impact, releases seven micro-explosives in a tight radius. This allows players to wreak havoc during a fight, even if they don’t have impeccable aim.
When using the Seven Cluster Cannon, it is better not to aim for the body, but rather to go for the ground at the enemies’ feet or the wall behind them. This allows your initial blast to crack the enemy’s shields, and the subsequent explosions will finish the job before your enemy can build to protect themselves.
Be careful when fighting an enemy in close-quarters combat, as your enemy might use items like the Skyline Deployer or the Overcharge Grenades to escape the explosion, leaving you behind to tank the damage. Here are the damage stats for the Sevven Cluster Cannon, depending on the rarity:
| Rarity | Main Explosion Damage | Fragment Explosion Damage | Structure Damage (Main) | Reload |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Epic | 81 | 32 | 81 | 3.0s |
| Legendary | 85 | 34 | 85 | 3.0s |
However, it is important to remember that the Seven Cluster Cannon has a heavy kickback and a 3-second reload time. It is suggested that you don’t solely rely on the weapon when taking on an enemy, and have a follow-up like an AR or an SMG ready to pressure the opponent while the clusters are still detonating.
