What is the BEST damage perk for a rocket launcher?
As the title says, I'm curious what is truly just the best flat out damage boost? I cant find any resources that actually gives me a proper number but I want to know!

Things like golden tricorn, adrenaline junkie, explosive light, lasting impression, vorpal, all of those, which one is truly the hardest hitting?

Probably explosive light due to stacking damage upon damage with every orb, either that or perhaps lasting impression.

consider kills->buff perks nonexistant on rockets. Like razer said, expl light for max potential or lasting impression. Vorpal's still solid due to its convenience

Lasting impression and Explosive light are great.

If LI explodes late and boss puts up immune shield you miss a shot. Explosive light is a quick instant high damage hit but you have to collect orbs of light to proc the buff.

Tricorn - x1 is 15% and x2 is 50%, but kill perks are bad on dps weapons, especially on rockets. Explosive Light - 25%; Lasting Impression - 25% explosion only, ~20% increase total; Frenzy - 15%; Vorpal - 10%. Light doesn't affect mini-rockets from Gjallarhorn buff, but the difference between ExpL and Lst Imp is negligible in this case.

Chill clip+the buff does ~25% more dmg than ExpL+the buff, because every mini-rocket inflicts slow, freeze and shatter, which increases the damage substantially. The problem is you can't have too many people using it because of shatter cooldown and it doesn't work without Gjallarhorn.
