Overview

In-game description
A rocket intended for use in an MLRS (Multiple Launch Rocket System).

These rockets feed one thing: the MLRS truck parked at a monument. You cannot load them into a rocket launcher, and they are not a cheaper take on the regular rocket. They exist for a barrage on an area far across the map.

Getting a volley off takes more than ammo. The MLRS also wants an aiming module before it will fire, and you set the target while standing at a public monument, exactly where roamers go looking for people. Bring teammates who can hold the area.

So what is a volley good for? Smothering a compound you are about to raid, or making an enemy group's push miserable. Accuracy is loose, so think saturation, not precision. Spending a barrage on one armored door is a waste.

You cannot research it either. Even with metal pipes and gunpowder lying around there is no blueprint to learn, so nearly every MLRS rocket in play comes out of loot.
