Single use like its cousin, the [[Doomsday rocket launcher]]. It takes a half-second longer to aim, and has a drastically lower blast radius compared to the Doomsday, but makes up for it all by having a barrage of 3 rockets. 


'Heavy mercenary' raiders are typically encountered later on in the game, and they are the raiders which are found equipped with Triple Rocket Launchers - and rarely Doomsday Rocket Launchers. Regardless; enemies with triple rocket launchers are a major threat to your colony as they can handily kill multiple colonists if clustered, along with causing moderate collateral damage, and should be a priority target immediately.


Once fired it will not stop until all three rockets are fired, even if the target is dead.

-The '''triple rocket launcher''' is a single use rocket launcher that fires 3 rockets, one after the other in short succession and will not stop until all three rockets are fired, even if the target is dead.
+</onlyinclude>
-== Acquisition ==
-Triple rocket launchers cannot be crafted, and must be either acquired through [[trade]], as a [[quest]] reward, found in [[ancient shrine]]s or looted from [[Raiders]], specifically from Heavy Mercenaries in [[Outlanders|Outlander]] and [[Pirates|Pirate]] raids. In the last case, care must be taken to kill or down the raider before they can fire the single use weapon.
-<!-- Raider is linked instead of a faction because its a Mercenary used by both Outlanders and Pirates-->
+Single use like its cousin, the [[Doomsday rocket launcher]]. It takes a half-second longer to aim, and has a drastically lower blast radius compared to the Doomsday, but makes up for it all by having a barrage of 3 rockets.

-== Summary ==
-The triple rocket launcher is a single-use consumable, unlike most weapons. Once fired a single time, the launcher disappears completely. It cannot be reloaded, nor can any resources be salvaged from it. When fired, the cooldown time of the weapon is still observed. It is similar to the [[doomsday rocket launcher]] in this respect.
-As its name implies, the triple rocket launcher fires a burst of three rockets with a {{Ticks|{{P|Burst Ticks}}}} delay between rockets. Each rocket lands within a {{P|Miss Radius}} of the target tile and explodes in {{P|Blast Radius}} tile radius explosion doing 50 [[Damage Type#Bomb|bomb damage]].
+'Heavy mercenary' raiders are typically encountered later on in the game, and they are the raiders which are found equipped with Triple Rocket Launchers - and rarely Doomsday Rocket Launchers. Regardless; enemies with triple rocket launchers are a major threat to your colony as they can handily kill multiple colonists if clustered, along with causing moderate collateral damage, and should be a priority target immediately.
-If it is damaged in item form, i.e. not held by a pawn, by [[Damage Type#Flame|Flame damage]], it may explode<sup>[Detail needed]</sup>. The launcher will spark and emit a hissing sound shortly before exploding some time later. The explosion deals 50 Bomb damage in a 3.9 tile radius around itself.
-== Analysis ==
+Once fired it will not stop until all three rockets are fired, even if the target is dead.
-The triple rocket launcher is less effective against large raids. But the 3 shots, each just as strong as a doomsday launcher's main shot, are effective at harming bulky targets like [[centipede]]s. Regardless, the large explosion and very large range (36 tiles, only beaten by the [[sniper rifle]]) make it an effective crowd control weapon. The forced miss radius means that a pawn's own shooting accuracy (thus, skill) doesn't matter, though [[trigger-happy]] has a positive effect and [[careful shooter]], a negative one.
-Bomb type damage is effective against buildings, dealing 2x damage against passible structures, a 4x multiplier against impassible targets, and an 8x multiplier against [[wall]]s. This is especially useful against [[mechanoid cluster]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}}. While it is out ranged by most mech weapons, the raw damage is an effective (but not perfectly safe or reliable) way to destroy clusters from a distance. This is most useful against objects that are urgent to destroy such as [[auto mortar]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}} and [[EMI dynamo]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}}, where your own [[mortar]]s are too slow for the job.
-=== Compared to doomsday rocket launchers ===
+{{nav|weapon|wide}}
-Doomsday rocket launchers fire a single rocket with a very large radius, then 3 secondary explosions which deal fire damage. The large AOE and secondary flame explosions make it ''much'' more effective at disabling organic raiders; a doomsday launcher can easily end high-tier raids that a triple launcher couldn't clear. Doomsday launchers are less effective against [[mechanoid]]s, who are immune to fire. However, the large radius is still effective against weaker ones, like [[lancer]]s.
+[[Category:Weapons]]
+[[Category:Equipment]]
-The similar cost of the doomsday and the triple places the triple on the backfoot, as it is less effective in its niche than the doomsday is in its niche.  There also exists opportunity cost - you may only have triple or doomsday rocket launchers available, so don't be picky about either one. You may want to "save" doomsday launchers against particularly devastating raids.
-=== Fighting against ===
-As expected, triple rocket launchers in the hands of raiders are incredibly dangerous, and should be made priority targets. You can either focus fire on them, or by getting them to waste their single shot on an inconsequential or difficult to hit target.
-[[Psychic shock lance]]s and [[psychic insanity lance]]s have a comparable range (1 tile shorter) and fire much faster (0.5s warmup vs 4.5s warmup), which will make the target a nonthreat. [[Psycast]]s{{RoyaltyIcon}} can also [[berserk]] the pawn in question for the same effect.
-=== Wealth management ===
-Rocket launchers are very effective form of [[wealth management]]. Wealth controls [[Raider#Raid_strength|raid strength]]. Items are almost always bought at a market loss, so {{Icon Small|silver||1000}} is a fair decrease in market value. ''And'', you get a strong last ditch weapon against a tough raid - using the rocket will completely expend the wealth. Therefore, converting some excess wealth into rocket launchers is a good idea.
