The Steam Thumper is an Explosive Weapon introduced in the Winter Games 2017 Update in part of the Steam Equipment.

Strategy[]

Made with resiliency in mind, this antique weapon is one that absorbs blows, rather than takes them, thanks to its extremely useful active skill, without it though, this weapon is quickly overcome; because it has two rounds though, it mitigates the threat of most casual builds, due to its good damage, rate of fire, and agility - maintaining a dipping shot and OK reload speed. Any higher than casual, and this gun is in overpressure.

Let it be known, this Launchers gunplay is greatly lenient on its mentioned skill, which grants the user 40% in several effects; whilst in effect, preform Run And Gun to swoop in on nearby enemies, quickly eliminating them in a safe distance, as its splash, while mediocre, can still harm the user. Once the duration ends, take time Camping from high places, or Ambushing unwanted opponents. Although unique, an open battle with Shotguns, Water Weapons, or Assault Weapons can cause pressure to rise, and especially so for an unarmored handler.

Trivia[]

  • This is the third steam weapon in the game, after the Heavy Shatterer and Toxic Shotgun.
  • On the topic of this Launchers Active Skill, it will grant its user plus 20% protection, 20% Agility, and 20% Health Regen, for 10s, while also undergoing its cooldown which is 20s.
    • Very similar to the "RAGER", this weapons skill will grant a red electric aura across its frame, until entering its cooldown.
    • When a player dies whilst in 'Berserker', the aura remains indefinitely.
  • While it appears to have a feeding system, the character will only grab one cannister, even upon depletion.
  • In the Chinese version of the Respawnables, the Thumper was not translated into Chinese. However, this one was translated into “蒸气重击者”. "蒸气” meaning "Steam" in Chinese, while "重击者” means Thumper. Prospectively it would be weird to see this as the "蒸气Thumper".
  • When pick-up oriented events roll around, some players use this weapon in combination with high-end speed or defense builds.
