The Harpoon Launcher is a Launcher that was added in the Chinese New Year 4 Update and can be purchased through the Naval Captain Set.

Strategy[]

Not far off from its relic design, this Launcher shoots a massive spear at its enemies, dealing significant damage up close, and having some decent agility and accuracy to compensate for its more realistic issue, being its sling within the barrel, meaning this weapon technically never loses ammunition, but it also finds itself having to recycle, because of that minor difference, it sets itself on a quest far off from what it seems to behave like, the Aristocrat's Rifle, having more or less the same gameplay, with the vulnerability of a single bolt, because of that it makes its reload feel tedious, making its user vulnerable if they do not close the gap between them and their enemies.

In such instances, this weapon be best advised in a Run And Gun strategy, as though it has great damage and range, these royalties are hindered by its own flaws, and on another note, this projectile, though damaging to non-attribute players, is very weak towards tank and anti equipment mains, despite what damage it shows. Moreover, precautionary measures are recommended against Water Weapons, Heavy Weapons, and Dual Weapons.

A view of that arrow in use.

  • When fired, this gun mashes the firing sound of both a Stake Launcher & Sniper Rifle.
  • Oddly, during the Carnival Camp Update this weapon's custom projectile was swapped for an arrow, disabling the harpoon itself from firing, although it would still be replaced by another upon depletion.
    • Additionally, the arrow had a sling connected to it, meaning the player technically never lost the initial shot, but also taking an additional 400 milliseconds for the reload to sequence.
    • After said update ended, both of these intrusions were disbanded.
