The Indirect Miss was one of the "joke" Weapons of the Month of April 2013, and as such only stayed for a week, but it was later reintroduced on May 2013 due to its popularity. It's a primary weapon for the Soldier, and has the apparence of the Direct Hit but with inverted colors.
It acts as the opposite of the Direct Hit : it has a greatly increased explosion radius, but deals less damage and its rocket travels 80% slower at 220 HU/sec, 4% slower than a walking Heavy.

Gameplay[]
- This weapon is almost unusable in direct combat, as the rocket will take a huge amount of time to reach their destination. It is more useful on Capture Point and Payload (in defense) maps, as the locations of enemies is easily predictable.
Trivia[]
