“Look Ma’ fireworks!”

This is a guide for the “Hurricane” Guided Rocket System. It’ll go through the stats, modifications, overclocks, and community builds.

If you have any suggestions as to what to add to further improve the guide please leave a comment below. Any changes that come through to the Hurricane overclocks, base stats, etc. I’ll be trying to keep this guide updated.

Base Stats

These are the base stats of the Hurricane, still gets the job done either way.

Modifications

Tier 1

• Missile Belts: Gives +72 ammo, bumping up from 288 to 360.
• Pressurized Gas Cylinder: Adds +4 Direct Damage, 16 to 20.
• Increased Blast Radius: Bumps the Effect Radius up by +0.5 from 1.5 to 2.

Tier 2

• Bigger Jet Engine: Projectile Velocity is raised by +33% from 100% to 133% while the Turn Rate is increased by +100% taking it from 100% to well, 200%.
• Anti-Tank Missiles: Adds a +300% increase to armor breaking, taking it up from 100% to 400%.

Tier 3

• Nano Missiles: Adds an extra +36 to the already existing 36 for a fat magazine of 72.
• Improved Feed Mechanism: Adds +1 to the fire rate, 3 to 4, faster pew pews.

Tier 4

• Shrapnel Load: Slaps on a +50% Weakpoint damage bonus, aim for the glowy bits.
• Zip Fuel: Raises the Area Damage by +5, taking it from 20 to 25.

Tier 5

• Napalm-Infused Rounds: +50% Extra Damage as heat, turn those bugs into bacon.
• Uncontrolled Decompression: Adds a +25% stun chance to your missiles, and the stun duration is +3 seconds.
• Nitroglycerin Compound:This modification makes it so the longer your missile stays in the air, the more damage it will deal. While it’s uncapped, most builds won’t get any big benefit from it outside of the plasma burster missile build.

Clean Overclocks

Unstable Overclocks

Community Builds

So this’ll be a bit different from my LOK-1 guide and it having my “personal” builds.

This’ll be instead more Community focused builds. Be it from my friends, or from you the community. If you have builds once U35 hits, drop them in the comments and explain them in detail if you want. Hearing about builds is always a treat. Screenshots of the builds will be below the text in order.

1. Missile Shower: Overtuned Feed Mechanism (By Ser Pounce)

About this build: “Don’t you sometimes just want to shoot a lot of missiles? Then this is the build for it.

Nothing too complicated here, we just want to shoot as much as possible so we’re taking all the ammo and RoF we can get. Since damage ain’t exactly the focus, the T5 mod allow us to gain a little bit more power AND allow us to save ammo by watching the world burns.

Being precise doesn’t matter. Exploding everything is your only purpose here.”

2. The Mine Launcher: Minelayer System (By Ser Pounce)

About this build: “You’re probably going to miss quite a ‘lot’ due to the lack of guidance on the missile so we have a few options to help with that : the mine themselves of course but also the stun and the missile speed. While you can miss and still get value from missed shots, you do want to hit as much missiles as you can. The minelayer system is the consolation prize of you missing your shots.

It also has an added value outside of just making your missed shots worth something: versatility. Too much enemies for you to deal with? Just plant a line of missiles in front of the swarms and watch them all get stun while you run away, laughing maniacally. It’s also pretty good for spamming without a care in the world for aiming. Works pretty well as a ‘fire and forget’ system.”

Final Notes

So, this’ll mark the “end” of the guide. But this’ll still be updated, changed, and maybe some more things will be added. Such as the frameworks/meshes of the Hurricane as well. I don’t know much about Gunner as I am a filthy little Engineer main so my heart lies with nuking things with Fatboy shells.

Additional things to be aware of

• The Salvo Module upgrade shows no stats because it changes no stats/numbers that are shown directly. However, do note this Overclock is practically a straight up upgrade from the base as it really has no downsides aside from the potential to run out of ammo very quickly. So you can swap between the standard firing, or start loading up as many rockets as you want to pour onto a target.
   
• Nitroglycerin Compound is really only useful with the Plasma Burster Missiles OC as the missiles will still continue to ramp up in damage from Nitro Compound as you guide it through enemies. So it’s kind of recommended to use Nitro Compound with the Plasma Burster Missiles OC to maximize damage if that’s your thing.
• The Gunner can make plane sounds for the animation he does when he doesn’t need to reload, so prepare for a few laughs as you hear Gunners in the distance making long winded “brrr” or “woosh” sounds.
• “Amount of penetrations one rocket can do has been reduced from 15 to 5; AoE damage halved (an x0.5 penalty), can’t figure out the amount of rockets that can be active at the same time but I reckon it’s about 9” (From GreyHound)

TL;DR: The Hurricane is really fun, and so are the Overclocks. The build potential for this weapon is pretty flexible, and I think Gunner mains will enjoy it. At least I think they will, I could be entirely wrong.

Also thanks to: Stella for once again supplying any memes, Ser Pounce for helping with certain screenshots, stats, and testing of certain Overclocks, and GreyHound on the DRG discord for posting stat changes for some of the Overclocks/hidden stat things! I’ll be sure to post more who help out.
