    Nice list! I'd say scythe is pretty great against the bots, infinite ammo, insane range, melts weakpoints and joints, the only thing is getting staggered, and the sight is too big for the amount of precision you need for the beam at range. Against bugs yeah it's pretty awful, no stopping power = death by hunter every time. C tier sounds perfect for bugs Yeah I'm staying with Helldivers 2 as well it's still fun, I'm just avoiding most of the community at this point, I think as a whole they're overly critical and generally negative.

    Mostly agree here - have some thoughts though. First, yes, the PP is medium pen (you weren’t sure at the time - I get it. Easy to forget) DCS - I love it for stealth play. It’s surprisingly quiet in terms of how close you can be and not be heard when firing it. Plus, having a scope for scoping things out is so handy Crossbow - hell yeah. Love that thing. SUPER quiet. You can actually distract enemies and draw them away from things by firing that explosion to a distant spot Sickle - couldn’t agree more. It’s like the stalwart of the primaries. Especially on cold planets when the cooldown is very fast Punisher - completely understand your placement. That lobbing of the shots can be tricky to get a hang of, but it’s so handy when you finally learn that arch. I would love to use other things more often on bots, but I’m just most effective with that thing. GREAT stagger and crowd control. Though, I’d probably kill myself a lot on bugs because they get too close. Scorcher - it’s like a slightly better DCS, but without the scope. I wish it had a scope. But its sound profile is only like 10 meters, so you can snipe the crap out of things up close and not be noticed. Very handy.

    I agree with most of it although the diligence counter sniper is generally my go-to for bots, eruptor is nice for lower level play but generally i need a weapon that shoots faster and still outputs high damage not to mention faster follow up shots to help with either bad aim or being flinched off target, since headshots will kill all bots instantly except for the berserkers with the chainsaw arms, although theres been talk about the eruptor getting its shrapnel back so maybe one day itll be amazing again

    I personally have the Crossbow in like C tier because while the utility is nice that’s pretty much all it contributes and in that regard the Grenade Pistol’s utility is nearly as good while also taking up a less competitive slot and the Eruptor also has the same utility while having significantly better combat capabilities. I really need the Crossbow to pull its weight in combat more before I can feel comfortable bringing it on harder missions.

  • @saltpoweredrobot5625
    @saltpoweredrobot5625 5 днів тому

    The laser weapons in general (Sickle too) are held back by their lack of any "stagger" or "flinch" effect on enemies, and the fact that they are Damage over Time weapons (but not the Sickle). If you shoot a hunter with a Liberator it'll recoil back JUST slightly, and that is enough to stop them from jumping at you, or if you behead a Brood Lord and keep shooting, it won't be able to catch up to you and hit you back. For bots, this will cause them to be less accurate as their arms will be knocked around (its not super noticeable, but it does happen). With the Sickle and Scythe, if you don't kill them outright, then the enemy will advance on you with no issues and easily jump at you (Hunters and Brood Lords) or shoot you (Bots). The Sickle doesn't struggle as much since it can put out a TON of damage really quickly and doesn't need to worry about accuracy as much since each hit will impart its full damage on the enemy. Scythe is DOT however, so anytime an enemy manages to land a hit on you and cause you to flinch off target you miss out on a ton of damage. There's really only two fixes that would make the Scythe as useful as the Sickle and that would either be buffing its damage over time to higher levels (something Thiccfila recommended by having its damage go up as the battery overheats) so you're punished less for getting hit and going off target, or by giving it a proper scope so you can beam enemies down at range and stop them from landing hits on you in the first place. For me I personally would prefer if it got a scope since I'd much rather have a solid long range weapon to deal with the bots that isn't the Marksmen rifles. Dominator and Scorcher are great, but they have red dot sights too so you're still stuck at close range with those weapons.

    @damienmcdonald7610 5 днів тому

    Yeah I'd agree mostly overall with your list. I'd rank the crossbow higher against bugs because that utility is really good against bug holes, even more so now that it's one handed, best thing for nest clears except the grenade launcher. I'd also put the DCS higher against bots, one shot to all troopers, great for popping devestator heads, it pairs really well with HMG especially so I'd put it maybe low a tier. If they gave it better durable damage I'd say high a tier but honestly i still feel like the regular diligence should have the pen value and damage of the DCS and the DCS should have 100% durable damage and some stagger to avoid power creep.

    • @NomadHD2

    The sickle can last for 7 seconds and shoot out 87 blasts while it lasts with a damage of 55 with the benefit that if you pay attention you can basically shoot infinitely as long as you pause for a moment. The assault rifles need a SERIOUS damage bump or magazine bump for closer comparison. Using the adjudicator for comparison, it needs 60 bullets to get to the same damage output Or increase its damage to 160. I would love it either way.
