[YeezyGT's S18] [MW: Handling/Reload] "Bump in the Night has a unique combo - Demo/Chill Clip fits perfectly as a damage option for grenade-heavy builds, such as Starfire Warlocks. Chill Clip's main success on a rocket comes from being paired with Wolfpack Rounds, (advisable only for 2 out of 6 on a team). Bump in the Night is a great option for static targets as a result." tags:pve

pandapaxxy (PvP / M+KB / Controller): "In PvP Bump in the Night is also outclassed. Having access to both demolitionist for more grenades and chain reaction for potential multi-kills is cool, but the low velocity and lower blast radius really hold it back." Recommended MW - Blast Radius.

Inspired by DMB Podcast 261. PvE first-choice roll. Shapeable. The Extrovert origin perk is most useful for CQC (within 15m), so probably not going to be that useful on a Rocket Launcher. Intrinsically offers 20% more damage over Precision Rocket Launchers, and the small blast radius may actually be useful with closer bosses (like the Caretaker). Increase the velocity with the barrel, add damage with Impact Casing, add Auto-Loading Holster so you can swap to continue damage with a sniper or slug shottie, and then Frenzy or Vorpal Weapon adds more damage on top. Recommended MW: Velocity, with a damage-boosting (Major, Boss or Taken spec) mod.

pandapaxxy (PvE / M+KB / Controller): "A rocket with a low blast radius, even for its frame, just feels bad. Bump in the Night isn’t something special to look forward to. [...] Overall there’s better options for auto-loading holster rockets, or frenzy rockets." Recommended MW - Reload.

Inspired by DMB Podcast 261. PvE first-choice roll for end-game content, for now! Shapeable. The Extrovert origin perk is most useful for CQC (within 15m), so probably not going to be that useful on a Rocket Launcher. Intrinsically offers 20% more damage over Precision Rocket Launchers, and the small blast radius may actually be useful with closer bosses (like the Caretaker). Increase the velocity with the barrel, add damage with Impact Casing, add Auto-Loading Holster so you can swap to continue damage with a sniper or slug shottie, and then as at Season 17, Chill Clip seems to be bugged to add extra damage when someone on the fireteam is using a Gjallerhorn. Recommended MW: Velocity, with a damage-boosting (Major, Boss or Taken spec) mod.

Inspired by DMB Podcast 261. PvE backup roll. Shapeable. The Extrovert origin perk is most useful for CQC (within 15m), so probably not going to be that useful on a Rocket Launcher. Not the best subtype for PvP, but if you must use it, boost the Blast Radius as high as possible with barrel, mag and Masterwork, add Tracking, so you have a chance of hitting something while you're in the air, and Chain Reaction may get you an extra kill if someone's are tickled and then finished off by a team-mate exploding. Recommended MW: Blast Radius, with a Quick Access Sling or Sprint Grip mod.
