Rockletrifle is nearly identical to a Thumper loaded with frag nades, save that fact that it's direct fire.

Personally, I prefer the Thumper, but I guess the Rockletrifle is pretty decent. I prefer being able to kill 5 people 'round the corner :-p

I use it as often as I can. The secondary function is really helpful in tower assaults. I play a lot of Unreal Tournament/2003 so I automagically gravitated to it.

Rocklets pack nasty AP damage, 3-4 splashes pretty much drain an infantry. If you have cover available, spam off 4-5 shots then switch to a MA weapon for a quick kill. The rocklet's main selling point IMO is versatility- it kills cloakers, infantry, max suits, and vechs with pretty good efficiency.

Its my main weapon too, good in almost any situation except long range where its easy to dodge the rockets. Buggies and lightenings fear it, it can take them out pretty easy, and pretty good Vs Reavers too. A Mossy takes 5 shots to lose control. PErsonally against MAXs i prefer a decimator so i carry both. A good tactic i found last night was to hit a nearly full health fully loaded Sunderer with all three decimator rockets then all six rocklet rounds, driver jump out to fix it, gunners are no targettig me so i jump behind a rock, equip my second decimator, jump out one shot and eight kills, including the driver/engineer outside it trying to fix it. It did damage me badly though.

Well I guess the Rocklet is good for making me laugh. Nothing like someone with a Rocklet standing out in the open shooting at a tank. If my gunner doesn't put a 150mm tank shell in your face before my bumper hits you, you're roadkill They can be a cause for concern in my Lightning but most of the people I see aren't very good at hitting a moving target it seems.

Oh and for the love of god stop shooting decimators at tanks when they can see you and you have nothing nearby to hide behind. I appauld your use of weaponry but I almost want to stop, get out my tank and bitch slap you for shooting at a heavily armored relatively fast moving target from the middle of a road

Note: None of the above applies to the special assault users who have a brain in their head, just the ones that apparently don't

But shooting my decimator at Mosquitos at operational ceiling while afterburning in the opposite direction is so much fun...

I used to use the rocklet to take on jackhammers, if you spam the ground, as everyone was saying you'll always get the kill the jack in a duel...unless you suck. Also very good on maxes, and is the most versatile Spec Assault weapon, as the thumper sucks on vehicles.
