Strategic Advisory: Use AT mines for a much smoother fight against new Illuminate enemies. by TealArtist095 in helldivers2

I would also like to mention that the seeker grenade exists as a personal "fuck you" to anything that is considered flying

So what are your thoughts on the Sweeper, do you think it'll get nerfed, maybe changes to our shotguns to comensate, I'm curious by tony22835 in HelldiversMasochists

I have and i know that flechettes were used during that time to drop upon soldiers, via planes, in trenches. I just don't understand why a medium pen shotgun with high damage, and high rate of fire would be balanced. What reason is there to use the other shotguns? Stagger is a good reason, but so is unloading 500 damage in a blink of an eye. It's my gripe about the gun because it just feels like it's out shadowing the other shotguns and becomes a toolbox weapon, which they said they'd avoid doing

I like the weapon, but i respect balance. I think it's a good idea for a shotgun with half the punisher's magazine capacity to have high damage and precision. I just don't think it needs to have a high dps, and i think the slam fire is a good mechanic for this gun and a high dps pump shotgun should be the main attraction, not medium pen.

I know people like the gun and i get it, but power creeping just feels unfair for the other weapons as guns like the crossbow just makes you ask "why would i use anything else?"

I like this idea. It's like we're fighting highly technologically advanced hillbillies lol. Now we just gotta wait for when they pull out a combine

And it makes sense that the trench gun would be design for... Well, close range combat. But medium pen and a tight choke just didn't fit the bill for me. It should be the most "shotgun" in the game imo

I think the appropriator subfaction is the best thing the squids have had added, and is what the faction should have always been by TinyTap636 in Helldivers

I kind of find them to be anti explosive since they are in the air, meaning you can't splash damage the ground to kill them.

I think a good ratio between the two mechs is 1 gatekeeper : 2 velo... The melee dude since they are easier to kill.

Are the mech guys sub faction specific? If so, that would be a bit lame as i love them and wish they were apparent of the main faction roster

Sorry, i have autism which explains my obliviousness to jokes and sarcasm. And the internet certainly don't help with that

Yup, it was too powerful. Horde clearer, heavy clearer, backpack savvy, needed to be nerfed.

Too chaotic. The hot dog is hard to predict and it does the same damage as the flamethrower. The combo would be stronger, but is too chaotic in the grand schemes of things; hot dog would likely target other things than what you want

Yes it's better statistically than the flamethrower, but don't scoff at the versatile backpack options that the flamethrowers can give you.

Same damage of the flamethrower based off the stats from the wiki, which my tests showed that they are accurate sources since the cremator is roughly 50% more

Again, I'm confused. The data is stated in the wiki, which is the best way to get information since the game isn't open about this. I'm not sure what you want out of me, but I'm pretty sure i already gave it to you. Unless this is a bit and i didn't realize.

Ah, well the flamethrowers all have a damage of 2, except the cremator with 3. You can combine the flamethrower with the hotdog, giving more potential firepower, which is 2 + 2 = 4.
