5 Worst Skins in Fortnite: Battle Royale
By Alvin Tao
Almost every week, Epic Games adds a great new skin to Fortnite: Battle Royale. While the skins have mostly improved with time, there are some old Fortnite skins that are just terrible. Here are the five worst skins in Fortnite: Battle Royale.
5. Pathfinder
Costing a whopping 800 V-Bucks, the Pathfinder is an uncommon quality character skin which can be purchased in the Fortnite shop. Overall, this skin looks like it could be a default model. There is nothing special at all about this skin other than a few color changes to the original model.
4. Tower Recon Specialist
The Tower Recon Specialist can be purchased at the set price of 800 V-Bucks, just like the Pathfinder. Even though the availability of the skin makes it rare and desirable, it follows the same suit as the Pathfinder. Most of the changes made to this skin were to the colors of her top and pants, while Epic Games kept the overall model completely identical.
3. Ranger
Another Uncommon quality skin makes the list posing the same problems as the previous ones. Paying 800 V-Bucks is too much to ask for a skin keeping the same exact character model. A player could use those V-Bucks to get a rare quality glider or pickaxe.
2. Highrise Assault Trooper
Another skin that hasn't come back to the shop for quite some time now is the Highrise Assault Trooper. For 800 V-bucks, the changes made to this character's model are minimal. The default character model has had their hair color changed from blond to a darker tone, with some added camouflage to his outfit.
1. Squad Leader
The Squad Leader skin can be earned from the Season 4 Battle pass at Tier 87 -- this skin is a disappointing one to obtain at such a high tier level. Some redeeming qualities for this skin are it's unique character model and outfit that no other skin has, but overall it seems too simple for a high tiered reward.
