The latest Helldivers 2 Warbond launched yesterday to explosive outcomes (except you’re attempting to make use of the brand new Adjudicator DMR.. yeesh), however gamers had been left scratching their heads relating to the coolest-looking new armor set. The CE-27 Floor Breaker, initially proven to have the Engineering Equipment passive, launched with the comparatively awful Servo-Assisted passive as a substitute.

A final minute change? Fortunately for these of us who wish to rock a candy gasoline masks, no. A put up to the official Discord by a developer clears the problem up:

For a fast comparability between these two armor passives:

• Engineering Equipment: Additional educes recoil whereas crouching or susceptible by 30% and will increase grenade stock and holding capability by 2
• Servo-Assisted: Will increase throwing vary by 30% (suppose grenades and Stratagems) and gives 50% bonus to limb well being

I’m fairly pleased this was a easy bug and never an supposed change, as I’m much more keen on rocking two extra grenades and decreasing my crouched recoil than throwing my Stratagems slightly farther away. Some individuals swear that the 30% extra throwing vary granted by Servo-Assisted armor is a lifesaver, however I swear it’ll simply trigger me to overlook my grenade throws after they matter most. The extra 50% limb well being may need helped, although, on the uncommon event I’m not one-shot or burned alive in seconds.

All this dialogue over armor passives and their immutable attachment to individuals’s favorite-looking armor has numerous gamers hoping for a separation of appears to be like and utility. I really feel like we aren’t an extended methods off such a quality-of-life change, particularly with so many shiny armors to unlock (and purchase). As a result of why restrict our democratic escapades to just a few outfits?
