The Nightmare Rocket Launcher

Swaye here with a Destiny video. Today we are going to talk about the Challenge of Elders Rocket Launcher the Nightmare! In my opinion this is one of the BEST Legendary Rocket launchers that you can get in the Game. I will tell you why later in this Video!
Firstly I will give you an overview of my rolls on the Nightmare, afterwards I will give you my recommendations on the perks that you want for this Rocket Launcher and we are going to compare the Nightmare with other Popular Rocket Launchers in the game. Lastly I will give you my final thoughts on the Nightmare.

You can obtain the Nightmare by playing the Challenge of Elders and you may be rewarded with this Rocket Launcher by Variks.

My Nightmare Rocket Launcher comes with :
Hard Launch, which gives you more velocity and blast radius
Smart Dirt Control
Battle Runner
QuickDraw
Heavy Payload to increase the Blast Radius even more
Field Scout
And
Grenades and Horsehoes

This is an almost perfect God Roll Rocket launcher for Pvp. Mine has Hard Launch and Heavy Payload to max out the Blast radius, Battle Runner would help me to get to my next opponent quicker and Grenades and Horseshoes is a must for any Pvp Rocket Launcher.
Ideally I would like to swap out    Battle Runner for Tripod to hold three shells instead of two and Javelin instead of Heavy Payload to boost the velocity so you will have a more balanced rocket launcher with high Blast Radius and high Velocity.

And these are also my recommendations for the Perks,
You want to have perks that boost the Blast Radius to make your rockets more lethal but you also want to have a high velocity stat so that the rocket travels faster to their target and lower the chances  for your enemies to evade your rocket.

So in the first column you will want to have Hard Launch or Warhead Verniers, both increase the blast radius and velocity.
In the second column you want to have Tripod to hold three shells so you wont need to reload that often. Every moment that you are reloading means that you are vulnerable to enemy fire and Tripod will help you reduce this risk.
For the Third column as mentioned before I prefer to have Javelin to boost the velocity, as you blast radius by this point will be nearly maxed out it will be important to make up for the rather low velocity.
And for the last column Grenades and horseshoes is a must for Pvp, for PVE you might want to have tracking.

I mentioned that this is the best Rocket Launcher that you can get in the game and let me explain why by comparing this with other popular rocket launchers like the Kingfall Raid Elulims Frenzy, the ash factory and the JLB 47.
As you can see  The Nightmare has excellent base stats, it falls into the harder hitting rocket launcher category and in this category it has the highest stat in Blast Radius , Velocity and Reload time, Stability and Aim Assistance are not really relevant for Rocket launchers. Only the Ash Factory which has an excellent reputation comes close to the Nightmare, but is even lacking in the reload time.

I do have to say that if you are looking for a more balanced Rocket launcher with a relatively high blast radius and velocity you might want to consider the JLB 47. This Rocket Launcher from the gunsmith can be rolled with Hard Launch, Heavy payload and Javelin! It wont max out the Blast radius but you will have a relatively high blast radius and a high velocity Rocket launcher, so if you have not got a good pvp rocket launcher yet I can highly recommend you to get this weapon package when arms day arrives.

The Nightmare has excellent base stats and with the right perks this can become an insanely effective Rocket launchers not only for PVP but also for Pve as well and the great thing is this is a legendary rocket launcher so that means it wont take up an exotic slot and that is always a plus!
Also the gun rewards from the Challenge of Elders are not that hard to obtain, with three characters you will have plenty of opportunities to get this Rocket Launcher.
And even if you dont get this Rocket Launcher the other Challenge of Elders guns are also very good. I already covered the God Roll Final Duty Pulse Rifle, The Conspiracy D type Shotgun Her Champion and the Techaun Rage Fusion rifle. Those are all great weapon to have, I will link those reviews in the description box below or you can find them as an info card in the top right corner!
