At 30 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 1,313,140 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Where to Find Rocket Launcher

The recipe is not on the Technology tree — it is locked behind a schematic you have to find first. The best single source is treasure map digs (tier 5) at 1.9% per container, and the table below lists every tier and where each one drops.

Every Tier of Rocket Launcher

The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: attack runs 10000 to 14000, a 1.4x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.

Ammunition Rocket Launcher Uses

Rocket Launcher fires Rocket Ammo, and nothing else — running dry mid-fight is the usual way this weapon lets you down, so keep the recipe unlocked before you rely on it.

Schematics That Unlock Rocket Launcher

The Technology tree hands you the plain Rocket Launcher at level 65 for 5 Technology points, but nothing above that base version — the rarer builds are schematic-only. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.

Fastest route. Two routes to the top-tier Rocket Launcher schematic, and they are not measured in the same thing: about 33 kills hunting it directly from jetragon (alpha), or roughly 449 containers farming the 3★ copy from treasure map digs (tier 5) and fusing five. Which is faster depends on how long one of each takes you. Schematics fuse five-to-one, so a lower tier with better odds can beat the top tier outright. Counts are containers of that source, not time.

Alternatives and Upgrades

Plasma Cannon matches it exactly at 12,000 attack — those two differ in what they resist and what they weigh, not in raw attack, so picking between them is a swap rather than an upgrade. The next real step is Rocket Launcher at 13,000; below it is Plasma Cannon at 11,500.
