It is added to the list of SMGs and if you want to use it, you might want to look at the few important tips about the Drum Gun below:
Low Accuracy:
The Drum Gun is an incredible addition to the fifth season of Fortnite Battle Royale but the issue that many players are facing with this weapons is its low accuracy. Unlike the other SMGs, the Drum gun has a very low accuracy. This disadvantage came with an added advantage of the big magazine and zippy fire rate. So make sure only to use the Drum gun in short range encounters as it will not do much damage in medium to long range combats.

Very High Recoil:
Another thing that came with the Drum gun is its high recoil. If you fire the weapon, you will notice your gun going upwards very fast. This can make you miss most of your important shots and besides its low accuracy if you decide to use it for medium range, you will miss most of your shots due to the high recoil of this weapon. Now if you want to counter this issue, what you need to do is to use it in small one-second click bursts. This will allow the gun to come back to its position as you will give a pause between the shots.

Use it Instead of SMG:
Many players prefer to play with SMGs and especially Shroud who is famous for keeping an SMG in his loadout. But, with the addition of the new Drum gun, you may want to use it instead of the SMGs. This is because it has a slight advantage over the SMG of being the higher damage weapon. This is the reason that with a big magazine and higher damage than SMG, you will be better off with a Drum gun. So whenever you see a Drum gun, don’t think and get it even if you have to drop your SMG to put it in your bag.

Pair it With Shotgun:
Many players have reported finding Drum gun and shotgun to be a good combo. This is because you can use a gun like Drum gun to lower the health of the opponent and then finish them off in the end with a shotgun. This way, you will be putting constant pressure on them with your Drum gun and when they are low in health, you can just go ahead and blast them off with the shotgun that you have kept as a backup.
