The NSX Masamune is a rocket launcher produced by Nanite Systems, available to all factions. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The Masamune has a unique firing pattern. When hipfired, it releases rockets in a psuedo-shotgun manner, instantly and inaccurately. While aiming down the sight, the rockets become laser-guided, similar to the Anti-Vehicle MANA Turret.

Effectiveness

• Hipfire
• ADS

Assuming all rockets hit the target.
