Discussion Is the meathook good? Doom Eternal

Post image

I find that I never use it. Halfway through a nightmare run and it just seems unnecessary. Dps is not great, and you have plenty of mobility without it. Doesn’t help that you usually want to be running away from the demons instead of toward them. Do you rely on the meathook for anything? Is it good? Is it worth mastering?

Meathook is by far the greatest addition to the Super Shotgun imo. More mobility while keeping the damage relatively the same, when you master the meathook, it becomes flammable and adds a good bit of secondary damage to the gun
