The Yoink Shotgun is fairly okay as far as shotguns go, but where it really falls off is in both its damage range, ammo capacity, and special ability. The Yoink Shotgun will pull enemies towards the player, but that pull effect can be random, and sometimes leave players confused as to where their target is, all while their target gets the advantage by being behind the player. On top of the confusing special effect, players are also going to barely scratch their enemies, as this shotgun only has 2 bullets in its capacity, with a headshot barely doing enough damage to knock a player who has full Health and Shield.

Teh Unstable Voltage Burst Pistol is a fun and frenzied weapon that will reward players with good accuracy thanks to its incredibly high rate of fire and decent damage. Unfortunately, the Unstable Voltage Pistol has limited ammo capacity, which means that players must make every shot count. Where the Voltage Burst Pistol shines (outside of the fire rate) is in its ability to create Shockwaves on direct hits. The Voltage Burst Pistol can send enemies away, and even send players away if they shoot their own feet with it to provide them with a means to escape.

The Unstable Frostfire Shotgun is easily the best Unstable weapon in Fortnite, currently. This shotgun has high damage, plenty of ammo to take opponents out, and a reward in mobility for hit shots. If players hit an enemy, they will be rewarded with a movement boost or temporarily slow their opponents to stop them from running away. Shotgun hits with the Unstable Frostfire Shotgun are brutal, especially headshots, which will see enemies get knocked down with ease.
