…and the award goes to HOTHEAD!

For being the most ordinary and dull Nightfall weapon in living memory! Based on a super-fun Exotic from D1 that could spread a huge pool of deadly napalm from well-timed manually detonated shots, it could once burn whole rooms full of enemies, but here it comes back inexplicably demoted to Legendary and robbed of every bit of its charisma! Welcome back?

  • Hothead was in d1 and did the same thing though?

  • Here is a short video explaining why it is pretty much the best if you want to do the highest DPS possible with a rocket launcher. https://youtu.be/EIBfLPtAbSk Maybe it just doesn't have a "feel" that works for you. Lots of good weapons and combos that I just don't like feel of. That is fair. But objectively the hothead is hot hot hot right now.

  • My guy, field prep clown cartridge is insanely good. Plus it was literally a d1 legendary. It wasn't based on a d1 exotic.

  • It’s a damn good rocket launcher. Especially when there is an arc burn.

      It’s literally the second best rocket in the game. Would be the best if the stasis rocket from last season wasn’t in the game

        • Hothead was sort of like Red Spectre and Eyasluna , legendary cousins to Exotics in D1, The people praising hothead are probably talking about the Adept version, the standard version is middle of the road , I prefer max blast radius like Palmyra, Code Duello,Sleepless, Royal Entry It's not the worst NF weapon though, that has to go to the comedian, it even laughs at you in the flavor text because you got a crappy reward

        • It's the only good PvE launcher that can get Adept Big Ones and gets some spectacular rolls on top of that.

        • D1 had hothead before dragons breath though. And hothead is in the top 3 for rocket launchers.

          • Can’t hothead get the best dps for a legendary rocket?

          • Um, it comes with clown cartridge, and you can put adept mods. It’s the best legendary RL pretty much. You ever tried it?

            • It can get Explosive Light in Arc that's about it's only pull. Problem is Orbs were severely nerfed so by extension, EL. But the award for uselessness is Comedian. And then there's the ridiculously low droprates that make ALL nightfall attempts apart from GMs pointless. This is by far a bigger issue affecting all the Nightfalls and this whole aspect of the game.

            • Hello there[url=https://media1.giphy.com/media/3ornk57KwDXf81rjWM/source.gif],[/url] I think you are referring to the Dragon's Breath rocket in Destiny 1. Hothead was a legendary in Destiny 1 that does pretty much the same thing as Destiny 2's version. [url=https://destiny.fandom.com/wiki/The_Hothead?file=The_Hothead_UI.jpg]Destiny 1 Hothead[/url]
