The Heavy Gifter is a Heavy weapon introduced in the 11.2.0 update.
Description[]
It is a rocket launcher with a shape of the chimney that shoots explosive gifts. It has good damage, decent fire rate, low capacity, and low mobility.
Appearance[]
The Heavy Gifter is a shoulder-held RPG-type weapon, which is chimney-shaped. There are three red stockings on each side, and a golden bell hanging from the bottom, attached by wrapped Christmas lights around the end of the barrel.
Performance[]
This weapon shoots explosive gifts that can come in different colored boxes and different colored wraps. These gifts perform best in close range, they have a medium bullet travel time and a splash radius on impact.
When reloading, the player opens the back of the chimney, inserts gifts, then closes the back. It has no delay mechanics.

Tips[]
- Despite its statistics due to its low capacity, it is suggested to use on enemies with 2 or more near them.
- Because this weapon has a low capacity, it is advised to fire this with precision and timing. Otherwise, this weapon works mildly well in combat, as it takes 2 rounds to kill the target.
- It is best to use this in close range combat in order to get some kills. Try and avoid long distance combat.
- Run with a highly mobility Melee weapon then aim for the target/opponent.
Counters[]
- Try to pick off its users from afar with long-ranged weapons.
- Use high DPS/damage based weapons such as shotguns for a swift and less complicated duel.
- Always jump and dodge when engaging these users.
