If you plan on taking the rocket launcher, which is the strongest ranged weapon in the game, be sure to have enough skill to handle it. This weapon isn't an easy weapon to use, and if used incorrectly, then you'll end up blowing yourself up. Make sure your shots are at quite close, and it is a medium-range weapon. If you fire this weapon at such a close range, you'll blow yourself up. Also, if you plan on taking out hunters, make sure you shoot their heads or bodies. If you shoot the shield you won't kill it in one shot. Also, this weapon can take out mostly any enemy, and it is great against the Flood. Use it to take out large swarms and concentrations of Flood, and also use it to take out Exploding Flood, which can bedestroyed easily by this weapon or a shotgun. The Rocket Launcher is also best used for taking out enemy vehicles, but since the rockets fly quite slowly, you'll have to aim carefully or you'll miss. The great thing about this weapon is that it has a 2x scope zoom, which allows more accurate targeting. If you want to take out a great group of strong enemies, aim for the ground around them. Even though the rocket won't hit anyone, the force will send them flying, which is one of the great things about the rocket launcher. This weapon also has a strong melee. Use this weapon and go take out some enemies!
