Overload Rocket Launchers is an Artifact Perk.

Acquisition

Unlocked on tier 4 of the Queensfoil Censer Seasonal Artifact during Season of the Wish.

Usage

While this perk is unlocked, Rocket Launchers can stun Overload icon.png Overload Champions and deal significantly increased damage to them.

Champion Interaction

  • Instant stun on direct rocket impact
  • No charge time or sustained fire required
  • Each rocket can stun if Champion is not on cooldown
  • Applies Overload debuff preventing ability regeneration

Damage Bonus

  • 80% increased damage to Overload Champions
  • Applies to all Rocket Launcher damage against Overloads
  • One of the highest anti-Champion damage bonuses
  • Stacks with other damage buffs multiplicatively

Overcharge Benefit

When the Overcharged Weapons modifier is active:

  • All Rocket Launchers gain Overcharged status
  • Additional damage bonus in applicable activities
  • Enhanced effectiveness in endgame PvE content

Compatible Weapons

Works with all Rocket Launchers:

Exotic Rocket Launchers:

Legendary Rocket Launchers:

  • All frames (Adaptive, Aggressive, High-Impact, Precision)
  • Craftable rockets with enhanced perks
  • Adept versions from Trials/Nightfalls

Strategic Value

  • Instant Stuns: No wind-up time compared to other Overload mods
  • High Burst Damage: 80% bonus enables quick Champion elimination
  • Range Safety: Stun Champions from safe distances
  • Ammo Efficiency: High damage means fewer rockets needed

Build Recommendations

Comparison to Other Anti-Overload Options

  • More burst damage than Auto/SMG options
  • No sustained fire requirement
  • Heavy ammo cost vs primary options
  • Best for quick elimination rather than repeated stuns

Activity Applications

  • Grandmaster Nightfalls: Quick Champion deletion
  • Master Raids: High-value target elimination
  • Legend/Master Lost Sectors: Solo Champion management
  • Seasonal Activities: Efficient Champion farming

Notes

  • One of the most powerful anti-Champion options available
  • 80% damage bonus is significantly higher than most alternatives
  • Heavy ammo economy is the primary limitation
  • Particularly effective with damage-stacking strategies
