Thunderlord is good if its arc surge and a pretty long dps phase. It isn't really good at dishing out alot of damage quickly (burst dps) like GLs but where it shines is total damage/sustained dps. It's also really safe and easy to use, no need to worry about swapping weapons, shooting a teammate in the back of the head or missing shots, just hold the trigger.

The potential damage is there, but Rhulk's skinny ass will have you hitting about 50% of your built-up rockets unless you're right in his face (exactly where you DON'T want to be). Also can't build up stacks on the boss himself, since the shots just bounce away, unlike against caretaker.

[@barstool9156]

I’m annoyed at the LFGs I have gotten into. They are all using Arc Heavy GLs or Arc Heavy Rockets, yet Wrathweaver is perfect for this week’s damage, as it gives you a 25 precent damage buff to all Stasis damage for the duration of Winters Wrath, and a bit after it. Furthermore, putting down a frostpulse rift will grant you a times two! Meaning you really only need one stasis surge, and your other surges can focus on your secondary or primary depending on which is going to be the main source of damage after the heavy.

With the surge Thunder Lord is very viable for Rhulk. There is no chance of accidentally killing yourself and the lack of easily obtainable high burst arc/stasis heavies make the consistent damage of Thunder Lord great. The LFG group I ran with were all damage supers and once people didn’t get kicked during damage we easily two phased the boss. It is usually a burger weapon but like with flawless runs Thunder Lord can be a good choice.

Thunderlord Pros: Missed shots are less crippling to overall damage. High reserves. Super comes back quickly. Good for chaining thunder crashes Easily obtainable.... BUT.. Cons: Slow ass reload (Titans will be on Curiass for super damage). Poor burst DPS. Requires Arc Surge Requires Divinity since people who can't aim with rockets or GLs need a giant ball to target. BUT it requires the Catalyst to even do anything (good luck RNG) The many reason Thunderlord runs fail is because people underestimate how important the catalyst is. And it is completely RnG. So Thunderlord runs are actually not recommended. And if you already have the Tlord catalyst, chances are you already have other god roll stuff.

Nah there’s just as many good ones as anything else… The only problem is they’re not craftable for free like Apex Predator or part of a very rewarding and new activity like Onslaught. Cold Comfort was considered and is right there as best rocket launcher. Theres also a couple plenty serviceable craftable stasis. Crux Termination, Hothead and Blowout have some degree of best perks between Field Prep, Auto Loading, Reconstruction, Envious Assassin, Clown Cartridge and many varying damage perks but all sharing Explosive Light which with the nerf to Bait and Switch puts it up near top of class on this weapon type because of how few it shots you have and how many orbs are dropped in a damage phase. I will definitely concede that both elements either have poor heavy grenade launcher choices or they aren’t very accessible to someone who hasn’t farmed them before (Wendigo).
