Not sure on Striker it seems to be the one closest in effectiveness to existing launchers. Have trouble pinning down accurate numbers for a full salvos damage. When I tested in VR it seemed mediocre when I have Been hit by it in game it seems really high. I do like how lock on will give you targets range as compared to the other two factions weapons.
Phoenix gets better as you use it but it could have been great from the first shot but they pre nerfed it to much when you compare it to a engineers AV turret. It also has very high anti infantry damage that will most likely get nerfed. Range is limited and tanks really don't have a problem firing from beyond its range our retreating out of range if they are carful. Many terrain points where you could use a normal rocket launcher will simply be out of range. You cant fire from crown and hit tanks on magerider hill are from magerider hill into crown. You can fire from the tree on magerider hill and reach into crown though. We have a rocket launcher here that has the best long range guidance system in the game but also has the shortest range. It will also TK at the drop of a hat if anyone is even a bit in front of you. I killed as many people on my own team firing it as I did enemy infantry. Turn speed is just really bad far worse then it should have been.
Lancer they say has shotgun accuracy and fires three round at full charge some of the three shots seem to miss consistently because of spread at range. I fired a point blank three charge head shot into a combat dummy in VR and only did 50% damage to a infantry. But that maybe a issue with VR and not Lancer.
Overall there was a huge Buzz in community about these weapons and they failed to deliver a polished product that would have had players saying shut up and take my money.
