In Fortnite, Ranged Weapons are a crucial category of guns that are frequently featured in quests. These weapons are used from a distance, making them essential for combat in the game. While Fortnite does have Melee weapons as well, Ranged weapons are predominantly used.
Ranged weapons include guns that fire projectiles from a distance, as well as throwable weapons like EMP Grenades. Weapons like the Nitro Fists and melee items do not fall under the Ranged category. Additionally, using vehicles to run down enemies is also not considered a Ranged weapon.
When completing quests that require the use of Ranged Weapons, players simply need to engage in normal combat scenarios, which typically involve using Ranged weapons. These quests should not pose a challenge in most game modes, unless you find yourself in a limited-time mode that only allows the use of Melee items.
