Dragons Breath - It's better than you might think.

As the title reads above, I believe Dragons Breath is better than many of you may think. Better than Gjallahorn in many cases. [i]I am not saying it replaces Ghorn in every encounter, just in some situations.[/i] I run DB in Crota's End in every phase except for the Crota fight with extreme success. Lamps - Drop a huge blast with the Flare at a lamp and let your fireteam recover breifly. Dropping a blast in your path will cause the thrall to disperse all over the place, often killing themselves falling into holes. And lastly, firing it at the base of the bridge, keeps thrall back, while you wait for it to build and while you sprint across the bridge. Bridge- If you know the lanes where the mobs spawn, you can spam them with DB, dealing significant damage to them as soon as they exit. Hallway - 1 DB rocket at 331 kills a shrieker. Also, firing the rockets into the hallway, clears it of thralls for your runner to make the 2nd chest. Ir Yut- This encounter is where the Rocket Launcher really shines. After killing both wizards, and clearing the shriekers on both sides, rush left and dump 5 remaining DB's shells into her and she literally melts. She barely moves, and basically sits in the AOE damage the whole time. Not to mention it deals TONS of damage to the adds around her. [i]Also, most of the strike bosses hardly move, which makes DB extremely effective for them. Such as the devil walker, valas, phogoth, sepikis, the templar in VOG and the nexus. The list goes on and on.[/i] [b]Edit: I'll get some guardians together today, and use our DB's to show just how effective they are. Stand by for youtube links. Give me a day or so, I am a parent so I get about 1-2 hours a day tops. [/b] [b]Oh wow, this is trending. Apparently people don't believe me.[/b]

  • It is good but only against enemies that dont really move, against devil walker it is amazing, it is good against sepics prime, and fairly good against the cabal boss (although he still moves and bit and will move away before taking full damage usually), phogoth and the arcon priest tend to move a lot more so it is very good on them (unless you have someone stun locking them, but that is not the rocket launcher on its own), and it is just bad against omnigal, she just moves to dam much. The reason gjallarhorn is so much more popular is because it is a fire and forget rocket launch and it deals the highest amount of damage on a single target, whether or not they move, normally when i pull out my rocket launcher it is to kill a boss, not random enemies, i want my rockets to hit (missing one rocket when you only have 5 is a big loss), and i want it to hit fast and kill the enemy fast (i dont want to have to hope that the enemy decides to stand still). That is simply why i will always choose gjallarhorn over dragons breath.
