Helldivers 2
Summary
Over on Reddit , userkhoisharkyshared the idea forincreasing the Railgun ’s universal effectiveness while also retaining some of the nerfs published by Arrowhead .
Their architectural plan suggeststhree firing modes that ramp up the weapon ’s power significantly while also emphasizing its armour - piercing qualities . Safe Mod fires with a incursion sexual conquest of 6 + , enough to go through two Automaton Devastators , Unsafe Mode 75 % can peel through three Devastators , while the maximum charge of Unsafe Mode 90 % could crack up through 4 Devastators with a individual round , but there is a massive trade - off to all that power .
Helldivers 2 has many options for fun and sinewy new weapon system that need to be bestow to the game , both from the first title and altogether original .
Helldivers' Railgun Needs Some More Oomph
All That Power Can Backfire
To balance khoisharky ’s suggestion of an additional inflammation mode , their suggestion for the 90 % option would reduce the Railgun ’s effective range to just 50 m , ca-ca it viable only at closer range . Having said that , the special kick also come with an explosive shot that serve out splash scathe in a 5 m r , signify it could also be used for some minor crowd control . The game ’s biotic community has vocalise their support for the suggestionas many believe the Railgun was hit too hard byHelldivers 2 ’s first equilibrium darn which remove it from many players ' standard loadouts .
In the months follow the balance patch , the Railgun never really find and has since been replaced in most kits with moreeffective weaponry like the Quasar Cannon . The nerf , which continue controversial , dilute the piece ’s armor incursion ability when discharge in Safe Mode and diminish the amount of damage it inflict upon durable enemy parts . Many complained that the Railgun ’s identity element as a living arm was focused around armour incursion , so weakening that aspect of the ordnance robs it of some individuation .
WhetherHelldivers 2has any plans to reinstigate the Railgun back to its former Clarence Day of resplendence remains unidentified but in the meantime , the community still hasplenty of toy dog to help dispense liberty . Shotguns remain some of the best gunsin the secret plan with the championship of most muscular in all probability going to SG-225 Breakerfor its impressive might and range . When it come to enemies decked out with thickset armour , the Quasar Cannon ca n’t be beaten when it occur to explosive damage and is utilitarian when going up against a undivided Factory Strider or a squad of weaker Bots .
