The Gingerbread Homezooka is a Heavy weapon introduced in the 15.7.0 update. It can be obtained for a limited time during the Christmas holidays in the Armory.
Description[]
It is a Christmas-themed bazooka that shoots rockets. It has very good damage, a decent fire rate, decent capacity, and a low mobility. It can 2 shot a max armored player.
Appearance[]
Its appearance is based on the Armageddon. It looks like a gingerbread house and a rocket launcher mixed up.
Performance[]
The player shoots 6 rockets with area damage at a high fire rate and reloads after every 4 shots. These rockets also have a bullet travel time, so the rockets don't instantly hit the player. However, when they do hit the player, they leave a medium-sized explosion. Moreover, it possesses a 4x scope that allows the user to aim at an opponent more accurately.
When reloading, the player inserts rockets on the weapon's nozzles. It has no delay mechanics.
Strategy[]
Tips[]
- Use it like the Armageddon, Hurricane, and Missile thrower.
- Aim near the enemy's feet since it has area damage.
- Use the 4x scope to hit enemies farther away.
- Beware that this weapon's rockets have travel time.
Counters[]
- Pick off its users from long ranges.
- Attack the user while they are reloading.
- Since this weapon has bullet travel, dodge the rockets from far away.
- Try not to stand near a wall, as this can hit you since it has area damage.
