In case you were unsure what those are, here is a list of all ranged weapons in Chapter 5 Season 2 of Fortnite.
Fortnite is an incredibly popular battle royale shooter. And, being a shooter, you can expect quite a number of different ranged weapons. That number tends to change with Seasons, adding new and removing old weapons, to keep things fresh. Knowing what ranged weapons are available right now can be crucial, especially if you have a quest that revolves around them. So, with that in mind, let’s take a look at all ranged weapons in Chapter 5 Season 2 of Fortnite.

‘Deal Damage to Opponents With Ranged Weapons While Airborne’ Quest
One of the reasons you should know what classifies as a ranged weapon is for the Air Chakra Questline. One of those Quests requires you to deal damage to opponents with ranged weapons while airborne. That is easier to do than you may think. Any instance of you not touching the ground counts as being airborne. You do not have to shoot while dropping from the sky, you can simply jump while shooting, and any damage you deal while mid-jump will count towards this quest.
You have to deal at least 200 damage while airborne to complete this quest, and you’ll be rewarded with 350 Chi. We recommend using shotguns, as they deal a lot of damage with a single shot. So approach your enemy, jump, shoot, repeat if needed, and you’ll complete the quest in no time.
