Thanks Hamma, good review.

From the look of it, the hype around the Decimator is a bit of a placebo; it does a just little bit more damage than the other dumbfire launchers (like maybe 10 to 20 percent more damage) at the expense of some travel speed on the rocket. Against slower targets in certain situations the extra damage might mean the difference between a kill or an escaped critically-damaged target, but it doesn't appear to be a game-changer.

You also have one less rocket with the Decimator.

Personally i prefer the Decimator over the default VS launcher, the Decimator has a much flatter arc to it and the added travel time isn't really that noticeable over shorter ranges, it also one hits ESFs no chance for fire supression to save them as they limp away :mad:
And with two levels of rocket pouch i think it is, you can actually kill a Sundy with all your rockets, also two hitting libs never ever gets old. Ever.
