Usage & Description

In terms of damage-per-shot, the Badaboom's potential eclipses that of most other launchers, including the formidable Nukem. Its rockets spread in a manner similar to a shotgun's projectiles, making it very useful for inflicting high amounts of accumulative damage to large targets, or spreading heavy splash damage to large groups of smaller targets, and can be handy for attaining Second Winds.

• The name and flavor text on the launcher are both references to the sci-fi movie The Fifth Element.
