The Cloud Launcher is a Special weapon introduced in the 16.4.0 update. It can be obtained from the Trader's Van.

Appearance

It features a blue/white body with a white pistol grip, red trigger, a light blue sight on top, and a claw-like front with a magazine mounted in between the claw.

It fires light blue electric mines, which leave a cloud-white trail.

Strategy

It has good damage, a slow fire rate, a decent capacity, and a slow mobility. It is 3 shots.

  • Place its mines on hidden spots on where players mostly pass through.
  • It is a good counter against melee players.
  • Only use it for making traps as it performs poor on direct combat.
  • Lure targets to the mines.
  • Use this in close range maps, as it can trap targets easily.
  • This weapon is useful against multiple enemies due to its area damage, and also its ability to chain shots.
  • Use it on weakened enemies due to this weapon being a 3 shot.
  • If thou art trapped by crowding enemies, you can use this weapon to disperse them. However, be aware that you will kill yourself in the process.

Counters

  • Pick off the user at long range.
  • Avoid hallways since users will take advantage of claustrophobic areas using this weapon.
  • Area damage weapons and shotguns can counter users at close range.
  • Be wary on small areas where the bombs might be rigged.
  • Attack its users from behind while he is complacent firing multiple mines towards other enemies.
  • Its projectile is quite noticeable from afar, due to its travel time.

Weapon Setups

Trivia

  • It appears to launch cloud like projectiles, hence the weapon's name.
  • When this weapon was first released, it was a Heavy weapon. However, it became a Special weapon later on.
