Have you tried out the Cutting Edge weapons yet? What do you think of the ARC-12 Blitzer? Let us know!

[alexsawchuk]

This weapon was never meant to replace the arc thrower, that would be strange of them, they aren’t going to replace a support weapon with a primary

[chrisandrews]

My palpatine build is not gonna stop. Stun nades, blitzer, thrower, EMS strike, EMS turret, and a Tesla tower. Unlimited dots

[jalontf]

I actually revisited this weapon and have not stopped using it for several days. Pair it with a Guard Rover to clear chaff, keep enemies at medium distance, and tear up the battlefield.

[alcatraz-nc]

The only drawback of that weapon is the firing rate, which could be buffed but that drawback can be mitigated with hit and run. The damage will depend on how many arc hit your enemy but at the same time it stagger things that doesn’t one shot.

I am fine with people comparing it to the arc thrower and calling it trash though, if it keeps this weapon under the radar then I get to enjoy it longer

[scaper]

Im so disappointed that I grinded this hard for a weapon that is immediately outclassed by literally the first shotgun I got in the game

[ohtheirny]

This weapon is the sluggers point blank damage with low range but can hit multiple at once. And no ammo constraints. I love it. Have been running helldive missions with it all day.

[DolphinRichTuna]

If it could arc or hit multiple enemies more reliably it would be a fine weapon vs terminids. Let it stagger multiple targets and I would love using it as a bottlenecking tool.

[monsterific]

i feel like the blitzer works differently shot from the hip and aimed down. aimed down i can hit targets specifically but hipfired i can hit more targets at once. really handy if swarmed by hunters since aiming down seems to not hit point blank targets.

[homersimpson]

I like this weapon. I want my primary to deal with light enemies so I can use my support weapon for medium enemies

[Sarcastican_]

I think they made that pump animation deliberately slow. I mean, you're telling me I can't pump that shit faster? Looks like they let a grandpa into the Helldivers.

[Christian]

Infinite ammo just isn’t as special as the devs seem to think it is. They seem to make these weapons intentionally weak bc of it and I just don’t think that’s needed. I almost never find myself in a position where I’m out of ammo.

[AzgarthX]

Arc to multiple enemies doesn't mean chaining to different enemies. Those are different terms. The weapon description saying it arcs is accurate. As in it moves in a curving trajectory to enemy or enemies based on distance from target/s. The amount of enemies will depend on your distance as you mentioned near the beginning of the video. Weapon isn't meant to chain

[truthhunter]

I’ve been using this on bugs for mobbing and I absolutely love it. I’m also running the arc thrower for larger enemies. Clearing level 9 no problem.

[wingless]

why does everyone seem to think primary weapons are supposed to be good compared to the support weapons and the orbitals? like the devs even said they don't want this

[sevroaubarca]

I used the las pistol to kill a Hulk Bruiser while running away and it worked fantastically. Made it a staple for me to run and gun.

[pitbullsensei]

I really love that your cape can now look shredded or burned at the bottom, or stained with green goo and blood.its a small feature but since you're seeing your Diver mostly from behind, give a great immersive effect.👍🏼

[mockingmadness]

It's -- it's a Primary. Of course Arcthrower's gonna have more impact(slept on range, doesn't give a damn about armor and will destroy chargers with six-ish headshots, will take care of tanks, hulks and turrets, etc) being a support weapon; but having something that can hit multiple enemies and also not care about armor upon *dropping in* without having to call it in again is plenty strong itself. Utility, coverage and always available.

[AzalofForossa]

What they need to do is make it so if you hit one enemy with more than one lightning bolt, the second one will hit the first target, then also arc to another, and same with every excess bolt. So if you have one enemy body blocking all the enemies behind it, you can at least have it arc to a couple behind them. I'm not asking for it to work like the arc thrower and chain a bunch, but it sucks to have it suck to one enemy who's blocking other enemies and being stuck with it's terrible fire rate.

[reeceybyrne]

Just used this tonight and it’s great! One shot the annoying bugs. Can get usually get 3/5 kills in one shot. Found my go to weapon 👌🏻 ( bugs that is )
