Now that is what I want to see!
The Soldier on proper rocket jumping techniques

The Rocket Jumper is a training primary weapon for the Soldier. Its appearance is identical to the Rocket Launcher.

As a training item, the Rocket Jumper fires completely harmless rockets, allowing players to freely practice rocket jumping techniques. The ammo count for the weapon is also tripled, giving the user forty extra rockets to use. In addition the lack of self-inflicted blast damage allows the Soldier to perform the Kamikaze taunt without gibbing himself.
