The Plasmabomb Launcher was a grenade launcher weapon manufactured by GrummelNet Industries featured in All 4 One and Full Frontal Assault. It would launch grenades in an arc to medium distances, and was useful for attacking enemies from behind cover. When equipped, the trajectory arc of the grenade launch was shown when aiming. The grenades blast radius also made it useful for hitting multiple targets at once.

For 30,000 bolts in All 4 One, it can be upgraded to the Elite Plasmabomb Launcher. Through use in Full Frontal Assault, it can be upgraded to the Alpha Plasmabomb Launcher.

History[]

All 4 One[]

Created for the Polaris Defense Force, this weapon fires highly unstable charges of explosive plasma. Side effects of exposure include instant death, the longing for death, and a sudden feeling of equal parts panic and regret.[1]

The Plasmabomb Launcher is first available in All 4 One during the Rooftop Amphitheatre segment of Luminopolis for 500 bolts, and becomes available to upgrade with additional bolts upon reaching the Archipelago segment of the Aldaros Plains. It is not upgraded with use, but its ammo can be upgraded for 5,000 bolts, and its power for 10,000 bolts. After purchasing the ammo and power upgrades, it can receive an elite upgrade for 30,000 bolts. Upon being upgraded to the Elite Plasmabomb Launcher, each lobbed plasmabomb becomes armed with mini bomblets, which spread out from the initial impact and create further explosions.

Full Frontal Assault[]

The Alpha Plasmabomb Launcher was the upgraded version in Full Frontal Assault.
