Tactical Information

  • This stratagem is able to deal with larger, armored targets with ease, either stripping their armor so they can be readily dispatched by support weapon's fire, or outright killing them.
    • Compared to the similarly target-seeking Orbital Railcannon Strike, the Rocket Pods can be used significantly more often at the cost of being less likely to kill heavy enemies with a single use.
  • Due to the travel speed of the missiles, fast moving targets such as Chargers may not always be hit by the rockets.
  • Against the Automatons, the rocket pods are able to destroy Tanks and Cannon Turrets in 1 salvo, making them an excellent choice against these enemies in particular.
  • Rocket pods cannot reliably destroy Hulks partially due to broken hitboxes and because hits to their arms and shoulders are not lethal. A rocket barrage that strikes the rear vents cleanly should destroy a Hulk immediately.
  • Eagle-1 considers Automaton Fabricators to be "large targets", allowing you to destroy them from a distance even if the stratagem ball doesn't land close or on top of it.
  • While the game claims that this stratagem has a 0-second call-in time; it is in fact 3 seconds, with an additional ~1 second before the rocket pods hit their target.
  • Compared to other Eagle stratagems, the Rocket Pods are very precise. This allows you to call them in on a large target harassing your allies without putting them in too much risk. However, the attack has a small area of effect, so do not get too close - but this also means that if enemies are densely packed together, the stratagem can kill multiple of them.
  • With the correct approach angle and a bit of luck, the 110mm Rockets are capable of instantly killing a Bile Titan by hitting it directly in the head.
  • The tall and thin construction of Harvesters makes it much more difficult for the Rocket Pods to hit, making it inadvisable to use against them.
