Special Effect "Ignites enemies, Body Pop"

The Dragon's Breath is the custom version of the SMAWG rocket launcher.

Appearance[]

Dragon's Breath appears as a standard rocket launcher, with a golden launcher tube, gray stripes near the back, two (one contains the trigger, the other has bandages) grips, standard sights, all of them with the exclusion of the aforementioned launcher tube have the same gray color. White metal patches can be seen. The model always has an extra ACOG scope mounted on top and a computerized, high tech aiming screen on the right side, near the launcher open front.

Description[]

The Dragon's Breath is an unguided, single-shot rocket launcher. It has the highest impact of all Explosive weapons.

Special effects:[]

  • Sets enemies on Fire.
  • Killing an enemy makes their body parts explode and scatter (Body Pop).

Overview[]

The Dragon's Breath rivals Bennett's Doom for being the best rocket launcher in the game. It deals extremely high damage and has very good accuracy. The Fire effect it inflicts can be useful to finish off enemies who survive the blast, and proved usually fatality to enemies equipped with Adrenaline or Life Support. The only real downfalls of this weapon are the low ammo capacity and the risk of suicide.

The Dragon's Breath is best paired with a full-auto secondary that has adequate range, which would be used to finish off enemies who survive the rocket, or when you're in the middle of a firefight and you don't have time to reload.

The Drum Mag and Shrapnel attachments work very well with the Dragon's Breath. For lengthened combats and for maps that are scarce in ammunition (e.g: Frigate, Canyon), use Ammo Pack/Extended Mag instead, with the former more recommended than the latter due to the inability to extend the mag of a launcher with the Extended Mag. Advanced Rifling is also a recommendation if your combat situations usually involves you firing out of screen to finish off enemies that are running away after surviving the initial blast, however this is rare and is usually used for relax combats when you want to test out at something and is not really needed.

Pros and Cons[]

Pros[]

  • Extreme alpha damage tied with Tank Buster for the highest alpha damage out of all explosives in the game. Will usually put their targets to the grave without hesitation.
  • Is a Custom weapon; carries an additional effect. Effectively counters Adrenaline/Life Support users due to leftover damages from the fire inflicted.
  • Unguided rockets have fast velocities and almost undodgeable.
  • Capable of dealing AoE damage.
  • Great range and accuracy for a launcher.

Cons[]

  • Mediocre reload time, fire rate & in-clip ammo capacity.
  • Inflicts heavy damage to its owner if used in close range or being deflected.

Trivia[]

  • "Dragon's Breath" refers to burning shells, not an actual dragon. 
  • The normal version of this launcher (SMAWG) is most likely a reference to Smaug from The Hobbit. This is supported by the name of this weapon.
