The Laser Cannon Is Broken Now in Helldivers 2

The Laser Cannon got some great overall changes in this recent patch, its ability to take out Chargers now is ridiculous!

380mm barrage has been improved as well, called it in 50m away, only killed 1 teamate

Obviously it's a bug. It has more than 2 legs and is extremely undemocratic.

Lascannon was capable of destroying container doors before the patch as well - just throwing that out.

Recoilless: instantly strips armor, but needs a backpack and reload
Railgun: strips in 2-3 shots if charged to near max (risky) but has no reload restrictions
Laser: can chew through armor but requires sustained fire, also has infinite ammo
Flamethrower: ignores armor but has short range and can hurt your team

Your videos is short, but contains the Info that people looking for. Unlike other youtuber just reading the patch note for 15min. Great Work. Thanks!!😊

I primarily use the autocannon, but having to sacrifice a backpack slot and the somewhat sluggish aiming makes we want to try out some of the buffed stuff this patch

Last night i was running solos with my bro and we were SHOCKED at how easily the Laser melted through Chargers, let alone Bile Spewers.

I wish more standard weapons were buffed

Love these videos, straight to the point, no nonsense. Thank you for your service, citizen!

An old Strat that I have dusted off since the latest balance patch is laser cannon + jump pack.

On planets like Fenrir, there’s massive clear sight lines and plenty of tall rocks.
Just hop on one and start laser-beaming every bug you can see, you won’t ever have to come down for a resupply.

It’s not the fastest way of clearing bugs solo, but in a team I can basically just be a long-ranged laser turret melting all but the biggest bugs in a patrol before they even aggro my teammates.
I’ve found that it’s most effective against hive guards and brood commanders, only taking a few seconds of the focused power of the sun to melt them to death, where previously it could take an entire mag or more from an SMG to kill one.

I hope your shift to Helldivers 2 content pays off, the future of the game seems bright. Really love your info content about strengths and weaknesses of weapons. Keep it up!

My favorite build right now is an all laser build. The scythe, laser cannon, laser drone, and orbital laser. Then i throw something else in thats kinda "lasery" like the orbital rail cannon. Its awesome swopping from the primary to the support weapon and back while the other cools down.

And now i can do it even better 😎

Charger leg armor has always been weaker on the back of the leg. Probably you can weaken the whole leg by blasting it on the backside with the Laser Cannon just like with the Autocannon.

[milspec.gaming]

you can also do this same thing with the flamethrower and use like 25% of a mag instead of the new 75% btw

Chargers have medium armor on the back of their legs and their joints, only the front of them is heavy armor. Since the Laser Cannon has medium armor penetrating now it can damage chargers from behind. its like the auto cannon, which can 2 shot a charger if you hit the back of their legs.

amen thank you brother I love these short form videos that provide great info with examples so we can hell dive more

Is the armor reduced after a charge? It seems like the back on the lags just have less armor and the laser got it's armor pen increased a bit so it can pen the back of the legs now.

[chexo]

I’m so glad the laser cannon is good now, that thing was really cool looking.

I’m going to try the laser rifle too

Anyone know the song being played here? Would love to listen to the full version.
