[@willl5659]

Was Excited for the Blitzer, looks like I'm sticking to the slugger/ punisher and my arc thrower

[@Zhongkuy]

yeah, it kinda sucks rn. It penetrates nothing, you can kill 1.5 small bugs on average with one shot, but also kind of good on single targets, because can penetrate anything below charger/titan level.

[@inconsideratebox3000]

Sickle seems like the Liberator we all wanted. Seems really good thanks to the long uptime until the heat sink is fried. You also get 6 reloads if it does overheat, which is fantastic. Might be as good as it was in the first Helldivers. Punisher Plasma seems to deal pretty low DPS, which is especially obvious when fighting Berserkers. However, having the big blast radius is amazing, which is especially obvious when fighting Striders. My favorite factor with the Plasma is the ability to stun enemies. That can be an absolute lifesaver, and the fact it’s an AoE weapons is just crazy. It also has a gigantic ammo pool, which is great. Blitzer by design seems amazing. Infinite ammo, high damage, chains through groups, and a nasty auto-lock to make sure you don’t miss. It seems to have the same issue as the Plasma, which is a low DPS value. Might struggle as a single-target weapon just like the Plasma, but that’s not the point, is it? If it kills groups effectively, then we might have a new staple in the primary category. Dagger looks like an Automaton-only secondary. Like its predecessor, Dagger is gonna suck against body shots, making it a terrible bug group controller. However, if you go for heads, you’ll burn through enemies faster than a fat man on fire. Automatons seem especially weak to headshots, and since it’s a hit scan laser, you’ll probably want to bring this for our efforts to commit mega robo-genocide.

[@delirium4651]

I believe you're the first to show all 3... Blitzer looks fun but this painful slow reload and arc not targeting driver of walker are just runing it :(

[@Skilow]

Use pistol for walkers, but to be perfectly honest the blitzer doesn't look like a great choice for bots, getting close to them is a death sentence.

[@SuperCatacata]

@@Skilow The Blitzer isn't a great choice for either faction. I get that they don't want a Pay2Win reputation, but the Blitzer is very bad currently. The sickle also has unlimited ammo, but that doesn't mean it's also useless.

[@zanaduz2018]

As far as I can tell, the Bltizer isn’t equivalent to the Arc Thrower in terms of being a seeking, jumping arc of electricity. The Blitzer seems more like a Quake 1 lightning gun in that it hits everything within its beam in a mostly-straight line.

[@N0monis]

The benefit of the blitzer appears to be the stagger it has against bots. And unlike the slugger you don't have to be accurate with it.

Sickle seems like a much better Scythe. More dps and such. Not sure why I'd use the Scythe anymore when there's the Sickle now. Maybe for the pinpoint accuracy, but the Sickle seems very accurate already.

[@matthewflood3978]

It also looks like that laser pistol is equally as effective as the Scythe. So you can basically have your primary, and a scythe in your pocket. Tbh i like that a lot

[@DuncDog]

Why is everyone demoing the laser gun on the hot planet against the bugs? I do not understand...

[@Unchainedful]

Hot planets increase the damage and duration of incendiary attacks. This also counts against the enemy as well. So in hot planets you want to use any weapon that does heat damage. In cold planets you want to avoid using hear weapons as the damage is reduced as well as the duration. I hope this clear up some things. I know the game doesn’t explain things too well and requires you to look it up or data rip the game using cheat engine.

[@atheontimesconflux1067]

@@Unchainedfulwell, hot planets make laser weapons have less shots per battery, and cold planets let you spray more.

[@SuperCatacata]

@@Unchainedful Are you 100% sure laser weapons count as, "Incendiary" according to the game? Or just the burn damage over time. Either way, cold planets are way better for lasers simply because you can shoot twice as often. Less overheat.

[@burnin8able]

@@Unchainedful this is absolutely false. extreme heat just makes battery-based weapons less reliable, they don't do more damage in that environment. I feel like energy weapons being more temperamental and prone to environmental factors is a totally fair trade-off for infinite ammo.

[@Boamere]

@@Unchainedfulstop spreading misinformation, none of that is true

[@Unchainedful]

I think there still quite of bit of people confused on how weapons work in this game. EVERY item in this game is completely situational, stop thinking of this game as an action game and start treating this game more of a strategy game. The Blitzer shotgun isn’t bad, it’s actually one of the best weapons in the game. Having unlimited ammo and it has the SAME effect as the Arc Thrower without taking up a strategem slot is amazing. Remember that lighting damage ignores armor, however it does not crit or does more damage to weak spots, this has been proven many times. Lighting damage does its base damage and can arc to other enemies for a fraction of the previous damage, it does not do any more damage than what is listed. The shotgun pairs great with the Rover Dog, this allows you to shoot, retreat while your Dog gives additional fire support, and shoot again. It is highly effective against group of enemies. The Sickle is a great weapon as well since it is just the starting weapon with unlimited ammo if you can control it properly, it too pairs very well with the Dog strategems, allowing your Dog to fire while you let your weapon cool down. You guys have to play and explore the different builds and not just jump on what is meta like the personal shield and orbital strikes. Do different builds and be prepared to die and lose while experimenting with a build that is right for you. Now go use what I have taught you and fight for democracy!

[@insulindianmarechale]

Real

[@nivm101]

They are smarted than we think, by nerfing the railgun they forced players to experiment with other weapons, and as you say each one got his own purpose

[@brothatscrazy3418]

I agree to a point. The Scythe and Liberator concussive are both horrible. The Scythe needs the laser cannon treatment, getting slightly better armor pen and increased damage against non crit areas. The Liberator Cuncussive has practically no armor pen, seems to be deflected by even light armor and shots to slow. Yes it has stagger but do the 2 original Punishers and they also have respectable damage and utility. Imo, they should should slightly increase its armor pen and either increase its RoF or increase its AoE to make it better at stunning hordes.

[@razor5694]

Well said

[@SuperCatacata]

The Blitzer is objectively bad. Quit coping. If I want unlimited ammo I will use the sickle. It's super low DPS with non-existent medium armor penetration. Also terrible at cleaning up hordes because of the very slow fire rate. It serves 0 purpose(All of these are opposite of the arc thrower that you are comparing it to) Everything else in this warbond is very good for certain situations though. Overall great additions to the game.

[@ryanringer3896]

I don’t understand how the devs decided to add 2-3 solid guns and then a bunch of milk blasters

[@My10thAccount]

Kinda wish that the Sickle had a different firing sound. It sounds too much like a ballistic weapon currently. Otherwise it looks serviceable if nothing else.

[@unclesetsu]

the arc shotgun are barely arc. - it doesnt penetrate armour, still have the hit registeration when theres bunch of corpse on the ground. - doesn't chain - 25m range max(you can test it yourself, mark an enemy shoot at it its not difficult) - small cone(about 10 degree, just aim higher lol, yeah no buddy 25m range and 10 degree aint helping) - delay between shot are quite long - damage are divided by the number of arc;inconsistent damage (the insect that spawned by brood[forget the name] doesnt even die if only 3 arc hits. the small insect have to get hit by 2 arc to die, talking about the arc, not shots; one shot=5arc) 79 shots(x5 arc) vs 1 charger, guess how much damage i deal? 0(oh just shoot the soft spot, hehe yeah thats not happening because when you shoot its ass it hits the body, or leg, or head which is armoured hence still does 0 damage) i'm arc thrower enjoyer, blitzer aint it. the laser pistol are great companion gun with arc thrower since i use my gun when the enemy too close for the arc thrower to register.

[@Crabriri]

Sickle's firing sound is awful, why is there no "pew-pew?"

[@loon_gaming_88]

The Blitzer is not being used properly. If anyone is accustomed to the ARC Thrower playstyle, its best used as a hit and run mid range against Light and Medium tier enemies. Its not meant for close up fights unless you're targeting weak spots for Medium tier enemies. Its like trying to fight off targets close range using a Laser Cannon. Try using against a group of hunters midrange and you might change your mind. Again shoot a large group, run away, rinse and repeat. Same goes for the Punisher Plasma, the video does not illustrate the effectiveness of its AOE damage. USE ON LARGE GROUPS, don't do any single targets and not for up close fights. If you guys haven't realized yet, they are classed as "SHOTGUNS" for a reason.

Can the punisher plasma clear bug holes and fabricators?

@@krokenlochenI've only been using the new weapons in the new Termicide missions. Hopefully tonight I have some time to test them out. Thanks for the idea!

[@AGuyWithFace]

I have to disagree with you there simply due to how short range the Blitzer is. The arc thrower EASILY has 4x the range the Blitzer has and I'd qualify it as a mid-range weapon. Blitzer is definitely short range only.

[@loon_gaming_88]

@@AGuyWithFaceYeah the Arc Thrower's range is very long, but also the electricity chains. The Blizter damage is more of a cone when its fire outward. I've tested the Blizter at midrange and its decent. I consider 10 steps infront of you midrange, I'm not sure how how far you've been firing the Blitzer. Anything within melee range to 5 steps is close range for me.

[@sppd100]

Have to disagree with your last statements. Shotguns, in general, are not effective AoE weapons. They deal the most damage to a single target if all the pellets hit (close range for multiple pellets depending on how tight the spread is). That said, if the blitzer arcs to other enemies, then it is AoE. It’s strange to me though why you would want to use a weapon that has to charge up every shot at close range. If the damage output isn’t high enough to kill everything quickly you’ll be overwhelmed during your second shot if the swarm is too large. You’ll need support from something else, like a rover or a shield.

[@SpaceMuffin-el5pg]

As an avid Arc-Thrower user that blitz shotgun looks weak as hell which sucks cuz I was excited for it. You shot a walker 4 times across roughly 8 seconds (2:26-2:35) and still didn't kill it. Looks like I'll be finishing all the other Warbond stuff before I aquire the new one instead of skipping ahead for the blitz like I planned.

[@zygo0]

Punisher looks like it has a weirdly small hitbox for the projectile, like at 1:26 it almost seems to phase through the bot. Laser rifle, pistol and stun grenade look both fun and effective, the arc shotgun seems…maybe it’ll play different when I use it but wow does it seem underwhelming at first glance

with the lazer weapon are the batteries considered "Ammo" ?

[@nicholasgulla4666]

They’re heat sinks, but yes they’re a kind of ammo. If you don’t fully overheat them they will cool down and allow you to get a lot of use out of them, potentially infinite.

[@Uri0000]

Yes they do consider ammo.

[@1983kpb]

Not exactly. The ammo is the heat build up meter you see. Which can deplete when not in use. This effectively means infinte ammo with some careful management. But it also does have the capacity to replace the heat sink if you need to rattle off gun fire non stop. So the answer is sort of but not really? Basically if you give it some down time between uses you can always be armed, but in the event you're swamped and need to just keep shooting you can do that too. You just have a limited number of heat sinks.

[@bomjus1706]

can the plasma punisher close bug holes? if it can be used to close bug holes, dagger+plasma shotgun+las cannon+stun grenade sounds like my dream loadout. can just stun grenade chargers and blow their tails off with the las cannon. or stun grenade hulks and shoot them in the eye.

[@billrich9722]

Why does the *laser* have recoil?

[@CrazyFarseer]

IIRC, in Darktide the developers gave their lasguns recoil because otherwise the guns felt terrible to use.

[@enshrowd]

i heard that the new stun nade can stun bile titans and tanks, is this true?

[@mrdonkeyy1149]

Yes it’s op

[@squeezyjibbs6643]

I tried it on tanks, it didn't work. They still kept moving and firing. Can you confirm or deny?@@mrdonkeyy1149

[@Darrenrulestheworld]

The grenade looks great, the plasma shotgun, not so much

[@insane5907]

I was so excited for the blitzer but it’s probably the worst primary in the game 😂

[@creepy6054]

It's so OP though

[@charactername263]

its OK, in close range it claps brood commanders and hive guardians.

[@lag00n54]

it's just slower, shorter range arc thrower without the need of using it as a support weapon so just use a different type of a support weapon while not needing to reload and needing ammo for your primary

[@SuperCatacata]

Everyone above me trying to say it's good has some major copium going on Nobody in their right mind uses this and goes, "WOW IT'S SO GOOD" The sickle also has unlimited ammo btw. Yet it doesn't take forever to kill anything.

[@Boamere]

@@SuperCatacatayeah why would I use the blitzer when the slugger exists or the spray and pray

[@Mc.Scrumpy]

The dagger is better than the scyth, it seems

[@roguedoge2479]

Pretty underwhelming that the Sickle uses the ordinary gun SFX/bullet trails. I was expecting it to be like “pewpewpewpewpewpewpew” but it’s literally just a magic-reloading liberator. Even the scorcher, at MINIMUM, got a cool purple plasma hue. Lazy and rushed- coming from a Lvl 50 that loves this game.

[@squeezyjibbs6643]

It feels like a bug, honestly. I imagine they'll update the sound soon.

[@Bhargos]

I guess using ammo is over :\ A got part of the laser pistol will be firing it while running away

[@JDEdits20]

Am I the only when that whenever I close the game and log back in. It completely erases all the items I have equipped, primary, secondary, grenade, emote, and voice. It’s really annoying. Anyone else experiencing this?

[@tums01234]

Yup every time, and I keep getting the beginner tips during every mission like "don't forget to pick up your weapon"

[@JDEdits20]

@@tums01234 yeah, I really hope they fix this

[@Adonisys]

I only wear that helmet when i want to look like a German soldier in WW2

[@nt.hunter]

The blitzer shotgun is shockingly bad.

[@SuperCatacata]

It's pretty funny watching people who already bought the pack coping for it. There are 0 logical arguments for why it's not ass. Unlimited ammo? Yeah, the sickle has that too, and it actually does good DPS.

[@ImproperStandby]

DPS this, DPS that, if DPS is all you care about then take the most optimal loadout being the slugger or punisher. God forbid you have fun in a videogame

[@nt.hunter]

@@ImproperStandby yeah... The blitz ain't fun though.

[@ImproperStandby]

@@nt.hunter Fun is subjective, you may not find it fun but I do.

[@Boamere]

@@ImproperStandbyit would be more fun if it was actually viable, I think they should double its fire rate

[@imgettingtoooldforthis]

So far only the sickle and stun nade are worth it.

[@krelekari]

PS to any wondering, the Punisher Plasma can take out bug holes and bot fabs!

[@DuyHa1001]

Sounds like fake news because I just saw another youtuber unloading plasma onto bug holes and it didnt do shit

[@whatever_2808]

no it cannot, i just lobbed in 8 shots to one bug hole and it didn't close it unless I'm doing something wrong

[@ChaosMatrix]

What difficulty is this run at?

[@squeezyjibbs6643]

Why does it matter? Enemies don't have higher health pools or better armor on higher difficulties.

[@ChaosMatrix]

@@squeezyjibbs6643 I stand corrected. Thank you for the information, friend.

[@yomaster12345]

I'mma keep it real with you, any electrical weapons should be stupid effective against robots

[@Burntrocity]

Only gripe is you didn’t show running while shooting with the las pistol.
