It is also no fit substitute for proper anti armor weapons at longer ranges, where gauging trajectories against moving vehicles becomes a fine way to waste ammo. The Thumper is only viable against ground targets, Its sluggish 'nades standing absolutely no chance at scoring hits against fast aircraft. The explosion-on-impact offers a critical advantage over the standalone smoke grenade, allowing for the generation of smoke clouds on windowsills and defensive barricades, thus potentially shutting down dangerous perches or vantage points. The Smoke Grenades deployed by the Thumper activate quickly and can be deployed either as quick cover sources or as offensive vision-impairing devices. Against infantry, it can lay waste even to large squads in such a way that even the Dagger would have trouble doing. It is at its best against unprotected light vehicles such as the Razorback Jeep, but should not be underestimated for its Anti-Armor properties surprisingly, it can 3-shot a Mudskipper, and hold its own versus Rhinos in a pinch. While it is not intended for long-range use, the adjustable sights allow for fairly precise and effective mid-range engagement. A lightning fast 2-second reload is applied every time a round is fired or swapped.īeing in essence a midpoint between the Dagger, Smoke Grenade and Frag, the Thumper is a very versatile anti-infantry weapon. Both round types are stored and fired individually. The smoke grenade blast deals 0 explosive damage, but does deal slight balance damage, whereas the round itself deals 80 direct damage and 100 balance damage to infantry exclusively. Alternatively, by pressing the loadout key a second time, it fires a smoke grenade which creates a cloud that lasts for 35 seconds and triggers on impact. It can fire a fragmentation grenade which explodes on impact, dealing 650 damage to vehicles and killing infantry within a 5m radius. With the help of these sight features, the Thumper can accurately calculate where its arcing projectiles will land at the 100m, 150m, 200m, 250m, 300m, 350m, 400m, 450m, and 500m marks.

The sights can be deployed with mouse wheel scrolling while holding "T", or by pressing "sight up/ sight down" keys, but their effect takes place only when aiming down sights. It has adjustable leaf sights, allowing the user to configure the firing angle for maximum accuracy at range. The thumper specializes in rapid deployment of explosive payloads.
