Helldivers 2 game supervisor Johan Pilestedt is pressing back versus grievances concerning one of the most current equilibrium spot, particularly as it connects to the RS-422 railgun.
For some context, the railgun has actually been just one of the most effective Helldivers 2 tools for removing armored adversaries, specifically the dreadful Chargers, due to the fact that it permeates their shield and likewise takes place to be extremely reliable at eliminating. However, the most up to date upgrade nerfed the railgun to make sure that it can not pass through hefty shield when in Safe setting, which safeguards the individual from overcharging the tool and blowing themselves up. Unsafe setting can still blow up throughout shield, however it brings with it that deadly danger. Both in Safe and Unsafe settings, the railgun’s damages versus long lasting opponent components has actually been reduced.
In action to a follower requiring the railgun be “fixed,” Pilestedt claimed merely, “We did,” including a ‘melting face’ emoji and complying with up with this information:
“But 4 real though, the rail gun in unsafe mode didn’t change the capabilities of it as it should. The [armor penetration] of it was insanely tweaked and now goes from good to goat. Like it was always intended to be – a risk/reward weapon for high tier play. Like a sniper rifle on crack but with the risk of killing the user.”
Now, the wording of this tweet might stand to be a little bit extra certain, as it’s simple to misunderstand it as claiming shield infiltration was rubbed, when that’s the reverse of what occurred. According to Pilestedt, you require to crank the weapon’s cost up to “the limit” prior to it blows up to accomplish max shield infiltration, which according to anecdotal reports from players, still isn’t fairly as reliable as pre-nerf.
With that in mind, it’s an advantage Helldivers 2’s bothersome armored adversaries are obtaining nerfed as Arrowhead seeks to soften “spawn rates and health pools”.
