Fortnite: Top five most useless weapons and items ever to be added

There have been a lot of weapons and items in Fortnite Battle Royale throughout its existence, and some have been pretty much useless.

Since its release in September 2017, Fortnite has seen its pool of items, weapons, and vehicles grow and change dramatically.

You would be hard-pressed to find anyone who wouldn’t trade the Chillers back for the Bouncers. 

The Smoke Grenade is the first item on this list so far to have been vaulted. The reason it was given the axe was due to the lack of use by players, since almost no one bothered to waste an inventory spot on it.
