One of the coolest bazookas in the game. The projectile is slow, but when it gets its target... Well, you won't need to pull a trigger twice.

Description

Stinger 3000 is a Legendary Grade Heavy weapon introduced in the 15.9.0 update. It has 172 damage, 80 firerate, 3 capacity, and 50 mobility.

Appearance

It appears to be a military-themed blue rocket launcher, holding 3 yellow rockets on the back.

Performance

It has 172 damage, 80 firerare, 3 capacity, and 50 mobility. It is a 1 shot kill when maxed.

It has 3 primary attributes: Scoped(Scoped.png) Manual Guidance(ManualGuidance.png) and Area Damage(AreaDamage.png)

  • Scoped allows you to "scope in", in which you get slowed down and your vision gets zoomed in by a set amount. (usually 10x)
  • Manual Guidance makes all projectiles you fire follow your crosshair.
  • Area Damage will cause an explosion upon hitting a surface, dealing blast damage to nearby enemies.

Strategy

Tips

  • It is a 1-2 shots, so use another weapon to finish the opponent off if this weapon isn't enough.
  • The mobility is average, so you may or may not need another weapon to switch to for mobility.
  • It has area damage, so feel free to use this against a group of enemies.
  • Use this in close to medium ranges since it is not hitscan. Keep your crosshair trained on your target.
  • If there is only one enemy, then try to hit them directly as it would be a one-shot.
  • This weapon can't be used for 3 cat spam as it has delay.
  • Use this weapon similarly to Rocket Launcher with manual guidance

Counters

  • Attack the user from far away.
  • Since it has a slow reload rate, attack the user when they're reloading.
  • Strafe around so you don't get hit. But be careful since this thing has manual guidance.

Equipment Setups

Trivia

  • It is based off the AT4.
  • Unlike the AT4's unguided rockets, this weapon uses a Laser Guided targeting mechanism to guide the rockets to enemies
  • Even if the rocket becomes out of view of the player, it can still be guided. Realistically, this would not be possible without a secondary scope.
