Rocket Launcher

The Rocket Launcher is a very rare heavy ranged weapon that fires explosive rockets dealing massive AoE damage. Each shot covers a wide area, making it one of the most destructive single-use weapons available. High splash radius, high recoil, and limited ammo define its playstyle.

Rocket Launcher shots deal both direct hit damage and splash damage in a radius, making each use devastatingly efficient against groups. Self-damage from splash is a real risk at close range, so positioning is critical. The limited ammo and slow reload demands that each shot be aimed at maximum enemy density to extract full value from the precious rounds.

Rocket Launcher is best in the hands of a high-STR cat with enough HP to absorb the occasional self-splash hit. Save rockets for the densest enemy clusters or boss fights where the damage can't be wasted. It pairs well with items that buff explosion radius or damage from the Anarchist Cookbook, turning each rocket into an even more devastating payload.
