• Good for destroying obstacles inScenario modes
• Can kill multiple targets at once
• Moderate knock-back power
• Can unleash a robotic red dragon that breath constant fires to support primary attack
• Instant kill in human PvP (if shot at a reasonable distance from the target)
• Can perform headshot in B mode
• Can be enhanced

Disadvantages[]

• Effective in close range only
• Damage decreases over range
• Long reload time
• Expensive price for both weapon and ammunition
• Takes time to activate the B mode (3 seconds)
• Hard to obtain

Release date[]

• South Korea: 19 January 2017.
• Taiwan/Hong Kong: 24 January 2017.
• China &Japan: 25 January 2017.
• Indonesia: 31 May 2017.
• CSN:Z: 13 July 2017.

Tips[]

Overall

• To use the B mode successfully, shoot the cannon immediately after it finished charging, can be done by holding theLMB while it's charging. Late shooting will result the dragon not to fire and return to the cannon.
• The firing range can reach up to 10 meters. Use this advantage to instantly kill, or heavily damage enemies nearby. But After 5 meters, the damage drops considerably, down to a measly 4 at furthest range.
• This weapon does not have a true reload time. It will automatically 'cool-down' even while it's not in your hands.
• After fully enhanced, the cannon shoot color turn into ice blue and dragon's breath duration increased to 10 seconds. Also it doesn't have knockbar power anymore, in exchange for high stun power.

Zombie Infection

• Always be careful with infection during the process of activating the B Mode.
• Red Dragon Cannon is best suited against Light- and Medium-type zombies. Never solo against Heavy Zombie, or Stamper, as they will likely break through your fire.
• A charged Red Dragon Cannon shot combined with Deadly Shot can give up to 20,000 damage in a single hit. This is one of the two weapons capable of performing this feat, along withDual Sword Phantom Slayer.
• A rather infamous tactic with this weapon is performed by hitting zombies with a chargedBlade Runebreaker first before finishing them off with RDC combined with Deadly Shot. Alternatively, it can be used as the start to aDual Sword Phantom Slayer combo.
• Use secondary weapon that has high stun power such asPython Desperado,Calico M950 orDual Infinity to keep the zombies in place while the cannon cools down.
• Storm Giant Warhammer is also a good weapon to cover yourself upon using RDC. However, do note the presence ofSting Finger as it can infect you from far.

Zombie Scenario

• Use B mode to fight against bosses or a bunch of high HP zombies (Crusher-type (Blue)Heavy zombie in HARD 9)
• Its dragon breath can knock away incoming zombies from reaching you. Use this advantage to avoid the zombies from reaching the gates in Double Gate and blowing awayVenom Guards.
• Use the drop-rebuy tactic after each shot to quickly give damage to bosses. Beware, however, as this will drain your money to the point of unusability.
• Never use it against unreachable bosses such asKraken,Crono Wing,Angra. Its limited range is only good for clearing zombies on their respective arenas.
