Meteor Launcher
Weapon · WeaponRocketLauncher4★Launches a meteor outright, and the impact blooms into an explosion on the scale of a meteorite strike.
Meteor Launcher is 14th of 39 rocket launchers by attack, at 10,500 against the 16,800 of Beam Launcher.
It feeds no other recipe, which makes it a terminal item: craft what you will actually carry and stop there.
Details
At 30 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 303,840 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.
Meteor Launcher Crafting Recipe
Meteorite Fragment
Refined Ingot
Paldium Fragment
Corrosive Solvent

Ore×120
Sulfur×10
Venom Gland×10Crafting it takes 310 materials across 4 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 200× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows.
Where to Find Meteor Launcher
Meteor Launcher is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
Using Meteor Launcher Well
It fires Meteorite Ammo, and nothing else. The Lv. 38 Meteor Launcher technology (3 points) unlocks the ammo alongside the base weapon, so clear that node before you finish this build or you will be holding an empty launcher.
Magazine is 1. Every shot is followed by a full reload, so treat it as a single-shot opener rather than sustained damage and let a tanky Pal hold the target while you cycle.
Meteorite Ammo sells at the Caravan Shop for 360 Gold a round, which makes each pull a flat cash cost. Buy a stack before a tower or raid run instead of relying on Meteorite Fragment income mid-fight.
This is the legendary build. The tech-tree version, Meteor Launcher, hits for 2,000 with 300 durability off half these materials; this one hits for 10,500 with 450 durability. The extra 100 Meteorite Fragment, 30 Refined Ingot, 20 Paldium Fragment and 5 Corrosive Solvent buy roughly five times the damage per shot, so craft the common one only as a stopgap while you hunt the schematic.
Ammunition Meteor Launcher Uses
Meteor Launcher fires Meteorite 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.
| Ammo | Yield | Craft cost |
|---|---|---|
 Meteorite Ammo | ×10 | Meteorite Fragment ×3 |
Schematics That Unlock Meteor Launcher
The Technology tree hands you the plain Meteor Launcher at level 38 for 3 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.
| Schematic | Rarity | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|

Alternatives and Upgrades
Step up from here and you get Rocket Launcher at 11,000 attack; step down and it is Penguin Launcher at 10,000. The size of that step is what decides whether the crafting bill is justified yet.
