This perk enhances Grenade Launcher performance by providing scaling reload speed bonuses.
Reload Speed Mechanics
- Activation: Any damage dealt by a Grenade Launcher
- Stacking: Up to 5 stacks maximum
- Buff Strength: Comparable to Feeding Frenzy at max stacks
- Duration: Approximately 3-4 seconds, refreshes on hit
- Application: Only affects Grenade Launcher reload speed
Stack Building
- Each hit adds one stack
- Direct hits and splash damage both count
- Multiple enemies hit simultaneously grant multiple stacks

- Exotic GLs: All exotic grenade launchers
Strategic Applications

- Damage Perks: More uptime on damage-dealing
Build Optimization

- Enables aggressive GL play
