The Liberty Launcher is a primary weapon for the Trooper. It is a sliver rocket launcher with golden accents and brown grips. The rocket is a sliver and golden rocket that resembles the head of a bald eagle.
It has a 20% increase in push-force bonus, a 20% clip size bonus, and a 40% faster rocket projectile speed. However, it also has a 20% damage penalty. This weapon's downside will come into play in general combat, as a 20% reduction in damage is very impactful.

Tips
- This weapon's increased push force will send you flying much further when blast jumping than the Rocket Launcher so use it to your advantage and be mindful of it.
- The damage penalty can actually be seen as an advantage. Because it deals less damage, rocket-jumping won't take a big chunk of your health. You can even receive even less damage from rocket-jumping by equipping the Gunboats.
- The push force bonus allows you to push back enemy power classes or combo with the Reserve Shooter.
- Because they're both yellow, some enemies will think you're using the Rocket Jumper if they don't look close enough. Try using the Market Gardener along with the Liberty Launcher to play mind-games. At the right time, you can fire a rocket at an enemy chasing after you and surprise them.
