'''The Wardcliff Coil''' is an exotic [[Rocket Launcher]] in ''[[Destiny 2]]''. It fires a massive volley of microrockets that will home in on targets at short range for a wide area of effect.
The Wardcliff Coil fires a volley of rockets, making it useful for clearing multiple adds in PVE. It is also commonly used in many boss damage phases, including [[Calus]] in the [[Leviathan (raid)|Leviathan]] [[raid]], and [[Ir Anûk, Deathsinger]] and [[Ir Halak, Deathsinger]] in the [[King's Fall]] raid. It also is effective at killing [[Guardian]]s in PVP, due to the rockets tracking.

===Catalyst===
HAMIT'S LOG. The lead is good, but so are the Fallen tracking me. I swear on my Ghost there's a hundred camped outside. I'm cornered in the lab and they're using Shanks to run me out of ammunition. War cultist, arm thyself; at least it's a weapons lab. This, er, rustic device was once an experimental axion emitter, which sprays weird particles to light up the basement of the universe. Right here I've coupled the emitter to some catacaustic quark-gluon coils, which will not, due to my scrupulous safety checking, create a strangelet that devours the Earth. I cook up some pain in there, the microverse decays, and the result comes out here. If it doesn't work, well, please name the crater after me.
The quest to obtain the [[Exotic catalyst|catalyst]] for The Wardcliff Coil has a chance to drop from challenging enemies in [[Strike]]s once the weapon has been acquired.


The catalyst, once completed, will grant an additional perk:
==Gameplay==
*Pinpoint Guidance Module: Improved tracking on projectiles.
