Another Marvel and Fortnite project is getting a lot of attention. Thor Odinson is the one this time. Epic Games just released the Gods of Thunder pack to celebrate the release of the movie Thor: Love & Thunder. The Stormbreaker is the talk of the town, even though the outfits and other cosmetic items are pretty cool.
Mjolnir and Stormbreaker, two pickaxes from the Thor movies, can now be used in Fortnite. The first one has been in the game for a long time, but the second one is brand new. It is the subject of a lot of debate and questions right now. With players wondering why Fishstick can’t use Thor’s Stormbreaker.
Fishstick is not a joke from South Park. He is a popular character in the game. Who is now part of a strange situation that has come up since Thor’s Stormbreaker came out? Even though online forums are full of guesses, most people still don’t have a good answer.

Fishstick underrated by the Fortnite community
Players asked this when they found out that Fishstick isn’t good enough to use the Stormbreaker. Since the Endgame LTM loading screen shows Fishstick using the same weapon. Everyone in the Fortnite community is confused by this self-contradictory event.
There are a lot of questions like this on online forums, especially Reddit. This has gotten so bad that people are tired of answering the same question over and over again in their posts. And they are getting angry about it. The situation has become so commonplace that if someone posts a similar question, they get answers that seem to put them down.
The reason Fortnite’s Fishstick can’t use the Stormbreaker
The Stormbreaker is also made from the enchanted Uru, just like Thor’s Mjolnir. The Stormbreaker is just like Mjolnir in that it can’t be used by someone who isn’t worthy. Even though Thor’s history doesn’t say that Stormbreaker is only for the worthy, it continues to go against that.
The community as a whole has come to the conclusion that the feature is Marvel’s way of keeping people interested and getting them to buy the new bundle. While most people agree with the above reason, there are some who think that Fishstick was using Thor’s powers during the LTM.
Even though people have different ideas about Fishtick’s ability, everyone agrees that every pickaxe should be traversal and that items shouldn’t be limited to a certain character. A response from Reddit user u/Untestedmight gave a new way to look at the situation among all the other answers that were too similar.
The user said that even though the Stormbreaker isn’t tied to Mjolnir’s parameters, it still belongs to a Norse god, so it takes a strong mind and body to handle the power of the weapon, which is usually used to kill enemies.
Epic Games moved quickly to get the situation under control after the chaos in the community. Because of the backlash, the developers took the worthiness clause out of the pickaxe and made it a traversal tool instead. Now, any Fortnite character can use the Stormbreaker, but Mjolnir is still immune to this change.
