Notes
- Cheaper than
C4 Charge because it does not require
Electronics,
Hide,
Fiber and uses 35 less
Gunpowder, 15 less
Crystals. However Rockets require 7 more
Metal Ingots compared to C4 and takes 15 more
Cementing Paste.
- According to the Steam Forums, Rockets are more designed to be used against buildings than dinos. It can be useful in caves against a flock of smaller dinos such as
Onycs, or can be used to enrage a
Giganotosaurus into dismounting its rider, but many users complain of unpredictable results when used against anything other than player-constructed objects.
- You should keep in mind that Rocket Propelled Grenades, when used in closed quarters, can heavily damage your dinosaurs, or you. Be careful when shooting things at a close distance.
- RPGs can be shot down by
Auto Turrets.
