Fireworks Launcher
“ | Everyone loves fireworks! Except for those who are shot with them. Great AoE damage and better mood for everyone who sees the blast! (again, except for those who are shot with them) | ” |
—Weapon's description in Gallery |
The Fireworks Launcher is a Heavy weapon introduced in the 10.1.0 update.
Description
It is a small fireworks launcher that, hence its name, shoots colorful fireworks. It has a moderate damage, good fire rate, low capacity, and low-average mobility.
Appearance
It has a grey handle, with a fuse coming out of the top of it. It also has a few colorful fireworks exposed in the front of the weapon.
It shoots fireworks with different colors, they have a slow bullet travel time and when impacted with another object explodes colorfully like fireworks.
When reloading, the cartridge of 4 fireworks on the front are removed and are replaced with a spare.
Performance
FIreworkds Launcher doesn't act well in most areas: slow rocket speed, small AOE radius and under 100 DPS.
However, its 87 rate of fire allows users do rocket jump frequently. You could do a rocket jump first and shoot your enemies with higher mobility, then do it again immediately when touching the ground. Furthermore, its reloading speed is faster than most heavy weapons. These features make it into a rocket jump specialized weapon that only requires 30 in the early game.
- Because of its small AOE radius, don't shoot too slow after your jumping, otherwise the explosion couldn't push you out.
Besides, For sandbox attribute allows users bring it into a specific mode, as the fireworks will explode after few seconds if it didn't hit anything. Just show other players a tiny firework shows if you want!
Recommended Maps
As a heavy weapon with slow travel speed, it is recommended more in close-range fight. (This not includes when you use it as a rocket jump tool)
