More Helldivers, make it even go faster, tested with 2 divers, and it was 10 seconds less (1.20 total), so every diver probably cuts down 10 seconds. So 4 divers saluting will make it raise 40 seconds faster. (1 minute total if 4 divers saluting) (This needs further testing I can’t say for 100% so take it with a grain of salt)

@@Yorushima Very much not the case. As Wayra said, the shots come from your super destroyer. If that wasn't the case for you at some point then it'll have been a bug.

Doing so nets 100% accuracy, not doing so meant it'd generally miss.

Support equipment: Rising Banner of the Patriots A flag with a relay beacon embedded. Significantly reducing fatalities from most friendly bombardment around the Helldiver carrying the flag by avoiding direct fire on their position. With a Super Earth flag at the heart of the conflict mechanics and fleet personals are inspired to work harder for the heros on the ground. 10% cool down on other stratagems while flag is equipped. During extraction, the pilot is able to locate and navigate more effectively to the landing area with the additional data relayed from the Banner of the Patriots. 30 second reduction on extraction. But enemies will be more aware and aggressive towards the Flag carrier and anyone near it.
