Weapon Color Grading

While playing Fortnite, you’ll notice that guns and items will have a specific color to them. This is extremely important because the color tells you much about the weapon at face value. For instance, whenever you’re rebooted back into a lobby, you’ll spawn in with a grey pistol, which isn’t the best because grey is the lowest-ranking color.

Below is a list of every weapon color, alongside its rank.

Grey – Common

Green – Uncommon

Blue – Rare

Purple – Epic

Orange – Legendary

Gold – Mythic

Cyan – Exotic

One thing worth mentioning is that Epic often changes its mind about adding exotic weapons. Sometimes, they replace Mythic guns with Exotic ones, and other times, both are available in a single season.
