Overload Breechloaded Grenade Launcher is a Seasonal Mod from Episode: Revenant.

Acquisition

Unlocked on tier 1 of the Slayer Baron Apothecary Satchel Seasonal Artifact.

Usage

Primary and Special ammo Grenade Launchers disrupt combatants on impact, stunning them and applying various debuffs.

Overload Mechanics

  • Instant Application: Unlike sustained-fire Overload weapons, Grenade Launchers apply the Overload effect immediately upon damage
  • Weapon Swap Activation: The Overload effect triggers when immediately swapping to a Grenade Launcher
  • Disruption Effects:
 * Stuns Overload icon.png Overload Champions
 * Delays ability energy regeneration for all affected enemies
 * Reduces combatant damage output for a short duration
 * In PvE, makes enemies less likely to use abilities

Compatible Weapons

  • Primary Ammo GLs: Fighting Lion, Dead Messenger
  • Special Ammo GLs: All breach-loaded grenade launchers (single-shot)
  • Excluded: Heavy ammo drum-fed grenade launchers

Overcharge Effect

When the Overcharged Weapons modifier is active, Primary and Special ammo Grenade Launchers receive enhanced capabilities.

Strategy

This mod excels in various scenarios:

  • Champion Control: Instant stunning capability makes it reliable for Overload Champions
  • Add Clear: Disruption effects reduce incoming damage from groups
  • Versatility: Works with both kinetic and energy slot grenade launchers
  • Ammo Economy: Special ammo grenade launchers provide sustainable Champion stunning

Synergies

  • Concussive Reload: Combines disruption with weakening effects
  • Rapid Impacts: Enhances grenade launcher reload speed
  • Breach and Clear builds: Maximizes grenade launcher effectiveness

Notes

  • Does not stack with other Overload sources
  • The disruption duration is approximately 5 seconds
  • Effective range is limited only by the grenade launcher's projectile travel
