The Bazooka is a projectile weapon which can be used at a variable power at any angle, launching a shell that arcs through the air under the influence of both gravity and wind, exploding on impact.

Tactics

  • When fired at a shallow angle into the water, the shell will skip on the surface of the water.
  • The wind susceptibility allows the bazooka to hit targets that would otherwise be impossible, such as behind an overhang.
  • When there is no wind, the bazooka will arc through the air like a grenade.
  • When there is a very light wind, the bazooka can be fired directly upward at full power with an easily predictable point of impact.
  • Can be fired from Ninja Rope, Jetpack, and Parachute.

Criticisms, Problems and Weaknesses

  • A lot of practice is required to become adept at using the bazooka for long-range or highly arcing shots.
