A new hotfix has turned Fortnitemares on its head, boosting two terrifying items that are now tearing through matches-and players can’t get enough of the chaos.
Players also welcomed their favorite collabs right from Scooby Doo to Ghostface, who not only joined Fortnite as a cosmetic skin but also has a terrifying Last Call mythic item that is going viral among players. As much as the item is loved, its durability factor was a major drawback that players criticized. However, Epic has released a hotfix that fixes this issue and makes another deadly weapon even more deadly.
Fortnite Hotfix Increases Durability of Ghostface Mythic and Chainsaw in Fortnitemares
Epic Games has released a hotfix that increases the durability of the Ghostface Mythic and the Chainsaw in Fortnitemares, addressing player feedback about both items breaking too quickly during matches. These buffs make the sinister tools more reliable in combat, especially during close-range encounters where they often decide the outcome of fights. Players quickly praised the update, saying the stronger durability makes each weapon more satisfying to use throughout an entire match.
According to the latest hotfix, Fortnite has increased the durability of the Last Call mythic, which players can use to turn into Ghost Face by 50% in Battle Royale and Zero Build lobbies. At the same time, the Chainsaw item has also seen a substantial increase in its durability by 50% as players will be able to ride it longer across the island.
To give you an overview of the stats, the durability of Last Call is now buffed to 300 from 200, and for Chainsaw, it has been increased to 150 from the previous value of 100. Both of these items can be claimed from the island during a Battle Royale or Zero Build casual and competitive playlists.
Although the Chainsaw remains vaulted in Reload for unknown reasons, Last Call is still available on the new Nitemare Island to those who wish to experience it. Upon seeing the Twitter, players turned in their thoughts.
One wrote, “Ladies and gentlemen, I will no longer need to find a vehicle for the rest of the season”, implying they’d rather use a Chainsaw to travel across the map. Another chimed in, “Last Call sticks around and so does the fear.”
How do Last Call and Chainsaw stats compare after the hotfix
Last Call and Chainsaw both received durability buffs in the October 2025 Fortnitemares hotfix, making them last longer in Fortnite matches. Chainsaw’s durability rose 50% from 100 to 150, while Last Call’s increased 50% from 200 to 300.
Key Stats Comparison
Post-hotfix stats highlight differences in use cases:
| Stat | Chainsaw | Last Call |
|---|---|---|
| Durability | 150 | 300 |
| Primary Use | Mobility (rideable) | Transformation (Ghostface mythic) |
| Spawn Modes | BR/Zero Build | BR/Zero Build/Nitemare Island |
Gameplay Impact
Chainsaw excels for quick traversal and aggressive plays due to its lower durability but vehicle-like speed. Last Call offers double the uptime for stealthy horror ambushes, suiting prolonged engagements.
Which weapon now deals more damage per hit Last Call or Chainsaw
Last Call deals more damage per hit than the Chainsaw in Fortnite after the Fortnitemares hotfix.
Damage Breakdown
Last Call’s standard melee combo hits for 55 damage per slash (55/55/60 across three hits), with its Lunge Slash dealing 70 damage. Chainsaw lacks specific per-hit damage listed in available data, but community sources describe it as less potent for direct combat compared to Last Call’s combo output.
Comparison Table
| Feature | Last Call | Chainsaw |
|---|---|---|
| Damage per Hit | 55 (combo), 70 (lunge) | Lower/not specified |
| Durability (post-hotfix) | 300 | 150 |
| Strengths | High damage, stealth combo | Mobility-focused |
Last Call suits aggressive melee trades, while Chainsaw prioritizes traversal over raw damage.
