The Stickybomb Launcher is Annihilator's stock secondary weapon. It is a white RG-6 or Hawk MM-1 grenade launcher with a wide barrel, under-barrel foregrip and a large drum magazine.
This weapon fires explosives that stick to numerous types of surfaces, only bouncing off of Payload carts, players, invisible walls and spawn gates. Instead of exploding on impact, every stickybomb must be manually detonated after being fired, with a 0.7 second arming time, and can disappear without detonation if shot with any hitscan weapon, the Detonator, Irish Guard, Quickiebomb Launcher, or Short Circuit. Explosions from any other weapon will simply knock the stickybombs away, but not repeat the arming process. The user's HUD will display how many stickybombs are currently active and ready to arm.
Stickybombs have damage falloff or ramp-up based on distance when detonated under 5 seconds of being fired. After those 5 seconds, stickybombs do constant base damage.
Like the Trooper, the Annihilator can use the Stickybomb Launcher to perform a blast jump, launching themselves into the air with great force, only hampered by the penalties of immense self-damage.
Holding down primary-fire will slowly charge the stickybomb about to be fired. Below the user's ammunition count resides a meter, once the meter completely fills, the fully-charged stickybomb will automatically fire at 230% of the average stickybomb's speed.

Tips
- Beware that higher latencies affect the speed and arm time of the Stickybomb Launcher. This effect also applies to the Grenade Launcher.
- Stickybombs will bounce off of special surfaces such as moving doors and the payload cart when they come in contact with them. They may also periodically bounce when fired at the ground.
- Like the Grenade Launcher and the Trooper's Maverick, there is a small delay between clicking to fire and the projectile moving. Lead your shots
- The Stickybomb Launcher can be used in conjunction with the Grenade Launcher, to optimize your explosive ability and reinforce the weaknesses of both weapons.
- Stickybombs make for a well-balanced tool and can be used for offense, defense, and mobility.
- "Sticky Spamming" is nonstop firing and detonating of Stickybombs, whether it be down a crucial objective at a group of opponents, down a doorway or chokepoint and the arc. Stickybombs have allow you to perform this tactic in the safety of cover or at range, safely detonating them while shutting down pushes and defenses with constant DPS.
- This tactic is frowned upon by many, due to the lack of inherent "skill" involved in pushing two buttons.
- Otherwise, put the weapon's alternate offensive capabilities to good use, pairing up with a Doctor using the default Medigun to easily destroy an enemy Mechanic's nest of buildings or laying some down by a control point to secure a capture.
- Defensively, set traps to keep points and doorways locked down. Hide stickybombs in doorways to shut out overextending opponents, hide them in the buildings of a friendly Mechanic to ward off Agents or pair up with a Doctor using the Kritzkrieg and lay stickybombs around spawn gates to make the most out of Setup Time.
- Due to the lack of players utilizing the StickyBomb launcher, many enemies may not even expect a sticky trap meaning you can catch them off guard when they are chasing you down.
- The Stickbomb launcher is one of the most powerful weapons in the game when used correctly, due to it making it hard for enemies to keep track of and its massive damage paired with your grenade launchers projectiles flying around along with you they have to focus on.
