"Death rains from above"

The Nidhogg is Hyperion's special orange rocket launcher. It is potentially very damaging but its usefulness is diminished by its limited range.

Examples are on the talk page.

Special Effect

  • Death rains from above - After about 60 yards it explodes into 6 more rockets flying in all directions perpendicular to the line of fire.

Notes

  • Because the Nidhogg is manufactured by Hyperion, rocket launchers of this flavor have extremely high accuracy - often to such an extent that it could be used as a sniper rifle of sorts did the rockets not explode after a set distance. **Lilith's High Velocity skill can drastically increase that distance, particularly when paired with the Mercenary class mod.
  • Nidhogg is the name of Norse mythological dragon who gnaws one of the three roots of Yggdrasill.
  • The Nidhogg can come equipped with any elemental damage type. But it sucks balls and shouldn't use it anyway.
