Remember that the Ash Factory was the best legendary rocket launcher in the Crucible? Well let me tell you that there is a very under rated Rocket Launcher that is even better than the Ash Factory  and that is the Something Wicked

[intro]

Welcome back guardians, today I have a very special video for you. We are going to talk about the best legendary rocket launcher in the game right now which to my surprise hasn’t got much love yet from the community.

I am talking about the Rocket Launcher the Something Wicked which can be obtained from Crucible weapon packages and by playing the crucible

The Something Wicked has the two things you want from a good rocket launcher which is an high blast radius for more destruction and an high velocity so your target cant escape your rocket and this rocket launcher has both!
The Something Wicked has a near maxed out Blast Radius and a relatively high velocity and if this sounds familiar to you , you are correct because basically we are looking at a duplicate of the famous Ash Factory which is know for the same stats.  
I have to be honest, the Something Wicked does not have the same awesome look as the Ash Factory but let me tell you it is even better than the Ash Factory.

Let me pull up the base stats for both rocket launchers and for comparison sake I have added the Exotic Truth Rocket Launcher as well.
The Something Wicked has the same blast radius as the Ash Factory but it has slightly better stats. The Velocity is slightly higher, the Reload speed is higher and more importantly it holds one more additional rocket. This is a big deal as this was the biggest weakness of the Ash Factory to hold only one rocket, which means you need to reload after each shot and that will make you vulnerable for enemy fire, when you are caught up in a reload.

Now we have dealt with the base stats lets deep dive into my Something Wicked. And I have to say I got very lucky with my drop. My Something Wicked is a God Roll Rocket Launcher, with a maxed out Blast Radius and Velocity and it has Grenades and horsehoes.
Lets go through the perks, it has :
Warhead verniers
Smart Drift Control
Hard Launch
Grenadier
Last Resort
Snapshot
Javelin
And Grenades and Horseshoes

For the God Roll Something Wicked you want to max out Blast Radius and Velocity. So you want to have Warhead Verniers or Hard Launch and Javelin for this. You might be wondering what the difference is between Warhead Verniers and Hard Launch as these look exactly the same, which it is …. the only difference is that Warhead Verniers has a sliver of more velocity which you wont notice in practise. So either one of them is fine.
And Of Course the God Roll wont be complete without Grenades and horseshoes. As you can see I also have grenadier which is a great all round perk, the other perk that might improve this even more is to have Spray and Play to increase the reload speed. But I am happy with the current roll that I have.

If you are looking to get one as well you can play the crucible and you can get this as a reward by completing crucible matches or you can get it from a Weapon package by leveling up your crucible rank.
I don’t often mention that a particular gun is the best, but this is truly the best Rocket launcher out there that you can have right now. Period. It hits hard and it will hit you fast and that is all you want from a rocket launcher, also the fact that this is a legendary weapon means that this frees up an exotic slot for your primary or secondary.

So what are the alternatives for the short term while you are looking for the god roll Something Wicked?
The exotic Truth or Gjallarhorn are the obvious alternatives. In terms of legendaries the readily available Rocket launchers would be the Warpath from Future War Cult, which has the same blast radius but a significant lower velocity and it has Tracking instead of Grenades and horsehoes the second option would be the Dead Orbit Unto Dust Rocket launcher which does have Grenades and Horseshoes but it only has a mediocre base stats in terms of blast radius and velocity but this can increased slightly with Hard Launch and Javelin which comes straight out of the box.
Or when Iron Banner is around you should try to get your hands on the Titanium Orchid which has great base stats and the advantage of this one is that it always comes with either Tracking or Grenades and Horseshoes. See also my in depth weapon review on this rocket launcher , you can find a link in the description below or check out the youtube card which can be found in the right hand corner of this video.  

So that brings us to the end of the video. The Something wicked is simply the best legendary rocket launcher out there that you can get right now. So what are you waiting for? Go out there in the crucible and get this gun!
