Nukem

Nukem is a Rocket Launcher manufactured by Torgue.

Special Weapon Effects
Rockets fire in an arc and explode in a mushroom cloud upon detonation. Extremely slow reload speed.

Usage & Description
The Nukem is an extremely powerful rocket launcher that fires rockets in a heavy arc, creating a very large blast radius and dealing heavy damage. Like other Torgue weapons, it only spawns with the explosive elemental, and is affected by any grenade damage modifications, further boosting its lethality. The weapon is extremely useful for getting out of Fight For your Life, as the sheer damage and blast radius is enough to put most enemies down in a single shot. Care however needs to be taken, as it is very easy for the user to instantly put themselves in Fight for Your Life mode. Its arc and short range limits it to a last ditch weapon or in an area with large amounts of cover. The arc can be exploited and used to hit enemies that would otherwise be impossible to hit, or to prevent exposure to enemy fire.

Trivia

 * The Launcher's name "Nukem" as well as the radioactive logo on the side of the weapon, is a reference to the franchise and character, Duke Nukem, another franchise owned by Gearbox Software.
 * One variation of the launcher is known as Derp Nukem. The long overdue Duke Nukem Forever was considered a bomb by most reviewers, despite fan's general appreciation.
 * The Nukem's red text, 'Name Dropper', refers to mentioning important people, institutions or other things of importance in an off-hand and colloquial manner.
