Helldivers 2 - Hell is more diverse than ever as PlayStation's demographics continue to grow and change.

Okay I think I get what they were going for with the new strider. Every since they reduced the armor on Hulks, they have been pretty easy to kill with heavy pen stuff. For the new striders, heavy pen weapons work but anti-tank works much better.

Are striders having light pen legs a plus or a minus? I already had no trouble with bots on diff 10, doesn't this just trivialize another enemy?

It's supposedly so that you can still kill them with light pen after they use all of their rockets.

I fought the new war striders in one mission yesterday and only got the chance to try the recoiless on them. That worked pretty good, I was able to snapshot them and every hit was a kill, even when it hit the front torso instead of the legs/hip. When I try the railgun out against them I'm going to try disarming them before going for the legs. If the support plasma weapon has heavy pen that'll probably be the play there too.

is there an update for the super credit arrows?

RPG HQ requires you to have an account to just view threads now, which is extremely retarded so someone here is probably going to have to update it and share. I'd also wait on updating it since the upcoming Warbond update could potentially break something for no reason knowing Arrowhead.

Anti cheat doesn't throw a fit and nobody at arrowhead is going to go around tracking down every individual SC arrow user. You can't even report people in game for cheating- trying to straight up tells you that "players cannot be reported for this reason." They seem to operate on 100% faith that their anti-cheat works.

Doublepost but the warbond is okay. The armor is a nothingburger, the variable is a pretty good gimmick, haven't gotten the warp pack yet but it seems pretty straight forwards, and the laser sentry is powerful but seriously held back by its suicide mechanic- it really needs the reduced cooldown the MG turret has. But the Epoch is the easy highlight. It's an ammo efficient, backpackless anti tank option that doesn't suffer from the throughput limitations of the quasar. Problem: I have no idea what is wrong with this fucking gun. It will, at random, shoot off center. 10, 20, 30 degrees, at one point almost perpendicular to where I was aiming. And other times it's dead on target and works great. Arrowhead at their finest.

No wonder it fires perpendicularly. It has triple the spread of the Reprimand pre-fix.

I was trying to use the Epoch to smoke fabricators, aiming for the 'exhaust ports'. I thought I was being retarded, every third or so shot was fucking off at like 45 degrees to the side.
And the full shot on the Variable? Jesus what a surprise that was.
 
Glad I wasn't the only one having issues with the Epoch, I thought my aim was just absolute dogshit or something because it went way off when I was aiming at a hulks face. Hopefully it gets a fast patch to make it actually go where you're aiming, I normally run with the recoilless but sometimes I wish I had a backpack slot.
 
Sounds like stun has been nerfed across the board. They fixed the bug where stun effects were multiplied by player count and buffed stuns to compensate but not enough to match what they used to be in a four player game.

Just saw a video of a guy using the teleport pack to get into a bunker and they were able to take the items. Apparently its also confirmed to be intentional, which is great for solo SC farming.

Haven't tried the new stuff yet, but I will say I like the armor, and I think the passive is a neat idea, though for Illuminate and Bugs it seems pretty worthless, half the time when you die, its because you got caught in the middle of a swarm, so you'd just get up and get mauled, in which case, may as well use the suicide vest from Servants of Freedom. I'll probably just stick with either Democracy Protects or Engineering Kit.
