The Catapult is the lightest form of siege vehicle available in Wintergrasp, it is also the fastest. It moves at the same speed as a non-epic land mount and is very strong against other players/vehicles, though weak against buildings, and it has only a meak 35k life.

You need the Corporal or First Lieutenant buff to aquire one from a seige workshop, but there are no requirements needed to hop into one that was already made.

Unlike the Demolisher and Siege Engine, the Catapult only carries one player, who controls the weapons and movement of the Catapult.

The Weapons:
-The Flame-thrower is a channeled ability over about 5 seconds, shooting a short jet of fire along the ground in a line infront of you. Can be used while moving. Deals 1000 fire damage per second to vehicles and players in its wake. This cannot harm buildings.
-The Plague Barrel Launcher catapults a plague barrel at a medium range at the targeted spot. This deals ~500 Siege damage and will also plague the ground for 10 seconds, causing 1000 Nature damage per 3 seconds to any player or vehicle standing in it. The plague effect does not harm buildings, but can be used to deal significant damage to players standing in towers and next to walls while hitting the building at the same time :)
The Catapult is quite powerful indeed against players and vehicles, but nearly hopeless in destroying buildings and is destroyed quite quickly should any group of enemies be smart enough to target it.

In conclusion the Catapult should focus on killing other vehicles, killing players and escorting the slower seige vehicles. Catapults should ideally not be produced by the attacking sideafter the first few minutes as it is a waste of vehicle resource, though they are very useful for defenders in both defending the keep and attacking Southern Towers (which have substatially less life than the raid-boss-like fortress walls).

As a protection warrior you are actually able to Spell Reflect the flame breath back at the catapult without having it consume the reflect buff.
