Can a rocket launcher 1 shot a PC in TC?

From what I understand..you'd have to be an idiot to stand still long enough for someone to actually switch to a rocket launcher and shoot you.

Actually I'd volunteer to stand there and take a hit for testing purposes.

You are a man of men.

I just hope for giblets or a comical getting smacked on your backside. IRT topic, I believe a rocket could one-shot a PC easily, but the restraint is why waste the ammunition? These things are going to be insanely powerful, but also very expensive and possibly after a while, rare. It will be a decision that the player will have to make, but I'd expect to see more FTs and Acid guns (the ones that don't have charges, I've gotten them confused) in PvP than a rocket launcher.

I would also think the accuracy of a rocket launcher against a moving target would be horrid. If a guy is just standing there trading blows, then ya i see him being gibbletted, but anyone with some common sense will move lol.

The rocket launcher isn't good against a moving target. Yesterday I shot right over a gnorts head and it chewed on my shoes for a while as I tried to stand up. Here is the progression I saw

1. Click on rocket launcher

2. Target immediately knows he's been targeted, turns red...etc. Target starts to run

3. Character slowly takes a knee

4. Character slowly puts Rocket Launcher on their shoulder

5. Character fires the rocket launcher

6. Rocket creeps towards the target(or where it was before it took off), I'm fairly certain burst run could out run a rocket.

I don't think that the Rocket Launcher's shot limit is going to be a big deal.

I can grab a Rocket Launcher from a faction recruiter for 5000 faction, and I can get 5000 faction in about 30 minutes.

Faction weapons are absolute rubbish.

Their damage is sub-par. A novice weaponsmith on a drunken binge makes better.

wow....5000 faction in 30 mins?? I'll pay you for the secret!

Can a rocket launcher 1 shot a PC in TC?

only if you're the pc.

stupid people deserve stupid answers.

theres a big variation in damagethat can be done. 1-3k damage makes alot of difference, it may be possible to 1s a toon with no armor resists to blast, but that remains unknown until its been tested.

Can 3 AT-STs 1 shota pc? You bet.
