How the hell does "Blaze Away" work on grenade launchers

Its only got 1 shot, 2 if ogryn is lucky.

It works exactly how it says. Its a total trap IMO, you have to SMASH that shoot button as soon as the reload is done, you have about 2/10ths of a second to fire the next round before you lose the buff.

^^This was on a rumbler, pre-patch. Haven't checked post patch, better blessings for it now.

It still works if you immediately shoot after reload.

yes but only if you don't brace, it isn't worth it, take something else.

On Rumbler this blessing totally wrecks. If you have Adhesive Charge you have ogryns solved more or less. Just keep dumping rounds. Even the aimed fire of the Rumbler is not totally accurate enough for it to even matter most of the time.

The rest, yes its bad. Stubbers have too much spread when mag dumped, rippers too, and Kickback has a lot less single target damage potential when hipfired, while already shredding tons of horde so it's pointless. And GG has Pinpointing Target which will provide much more damage (and for every round in your magazine).

But on Rumbler, it slaps.

Would you guys recommend Blaze Away over any other Rumbler skills? My current has Shatter Impact 4 and Adhesive Charge, and with my current "Demoman" ogryn build, I can 1 shot anything shorter than a crusher with just one grenade lob. On Heresy. https://i.imgur.com/JmJsisH.png

I would recommend it over shattering impact. Rumbler does 100% damage or better to everything you donk with the shot. It really only comes into play if you want to proceed to melee those enemies, but Rumbler is basically one shotting ogryn enemies and smashing nurgle beast so it doesn't matter to me.
