The thumper is pretty interesting

as far as I can tell its the only grenade launcher without a strength requirement, and really strong for when you get it. early game it makes killing a certain someone in depot A a breeze

Considering you can upgrade it immediately after Depot A is just a bonus. It carried from me from lvl 8 to lvl 20 by itself on normal.

If you have high crit chance  and critical power feat, this weapon will be so strong so it will obliterate most enemis even on Dominating in 1-2 shots, better use it with special belt and Thermobaric grenades (for better range). Also you can use TM + adrenalin to shoot it 2 times per turn (25 for shot then 7 ap with belt to reload - that means each shot will cost 32 ap)

The reload cost is rounded up so it costs 8 AP, you could potentially do 3 shots with 2 reloads in between if you have a shell loaded beforehand, save 1 ap from the previous turn or use vitality powder opposed to adrenaline
3x25 + 2x8 = 91 AP
