The Firework Launcher is an RPG utilizing firework ammunition. It was added to the game in the v0.18.0 "Back in the Saddle" update on July 8th, 2024. It shoots very slowly but has a high spread and damage.

Strategies

Using

• The Firework Launcher is viable throughout the game due to its versatility.
  • The Firework Warehouse is intensely contested at the beginning of the game as it contains the Firework Launcher, Fireworks, and Confetti Grenades.
  • Do not enter the building unless you spawn early into the match or are adequately equipped.
• Make sure to pick up as much Firework ammunition as you can, as it will be difficult to obtain more later in the game.
  • If you are running low on Fireworks, you can break Ammo Crates using a Maul to get extra fireworks.
• The Firework Launcher is most effective in long range fights.
  • It pairs very well with larger scopes, like the 8x and 15x.
• The Fireworks shot out of the Firework Launcher move relatively slowly, so make sure to lead your shots when firing at opponents.
• You can easily damage yourself with the Firework Launcher, so make sure that there are no obstructions in the firing path.

Countering

• Weapons such as shotguns or other SMGs overpower the Firework Launcher at close range.
• Stay at close range, because the Firework Launcher is not very good at CQC (Close Quarters Combat).
• Fireworks move slowly; if you are fired upon, you have a window of time to dodge the firework, even at close range.
  • As a result, most players lead their shots when using the Firework Launcher: use this to your advantage.

Obtaining

• The Firework Launcher is one of the rarest weapons in the game: it has a singular spawn location that with only one found in every match. It can be found in the Firework Warehouse with ammo. The Firework Launcher is only obtainable during the Anniversary and Fourth of July events.
  • In 2024, the Fourth of July event coincided with the 20k Discord member milestone.
