Players will face Unstoppable and Overload Champions. The speaker highlights the use of the Fighting Lion grenade launcher due to its exceptionally high damage output against red-bar enemies, its overcharged grenade launcher status, and a coding anomaly causing it to deal significant damage to the strike boss. The build involves exploiting this high damage output, utilizing volatile rounds, and the Fighting Lion’s attributes.

In this part of the video, the speaker discusses the effectiveness of different grenade launchers in PvP (Player vs. Player) contexts, highlighting that rank doesn’t necessarily reflect skill. They specifically mention the Windigo grenade launcher as the best option due to a recent buff that increased its damage and blast radius. The speaker favors grenade launchers with impulse amplifier and suggests the ideal roles for PvP would include impulse amplifier and Full Court or rangefinder enhancements. They also share a preference for shooting from the hip with grenade launchers rather than aiming down sights.
00:21:00
In this part of the video, the speaker discusses optimal configurations for grenade launchers in both PVP and PVE contexts. For PVP, the suggested “God roll” includes the impulse amplifier with chain reaction, though danger zone is also a close second. For PVE, the recommendation is to use spike grenades with autoload and explosive light, as explosive light offers a significant 52% damage boost. Cascade is considered but found less effective for overall damage output compared to explosive light, especially in raid scenarios. The speaker also suggests potential setups for maximizing DPS, with combinations like build prep explosive or clown cartridge explosive. They emphasize the value of acquiring the Geo launcher, especially with the anticipated Arc surges in the next season, and recommend using it in conjunction with other Arc weapons like Thunderlord.
