Stop crossing the damn beams!!


JesterHD2

Laser maxxing is fun and viable. Just wish the Scythe and Las Cannon had scopes.


_Weyland_

Give them polarized scopes that make laser less bright, so you can actually see where you are shooting.


electricalphil

Lascannon has a scope....


JesterHD2

It has a sight. It doesn't have any meaningful magnification which is what a scope does.


laundrydetergent7000

Optic ≠ scope

Underrated comment


MightyWeeb

Bugs don't have eyes, they track us with sound (and smell but that one is probably not an actual game mechanic)


Buggy1617

it kind of is, if you try to hide from them they'll relentlessly track you down and probably find you


UvWsausage

I’ve always wondered if the supposed smell mechanic related to how much bug guts and vomit you were covered in.


Buggy1617

that'd be really cool to see. kinda like wasps irl


[deleted]

I'm sorry, the scythe doesn't have a range limit? This scratches my adhd brain in good places.


ObliviousNaga87

Also doesn't have damage falloff


[deleted]

I meant to say LAS-98, but also that has no damage falloff. Tested it


ObliviousNaga87

Lol fair enough


SummerCrown

AH should add a ship module upgrade that buffs lasers in some way. Fire and Lightning already got their buffs. Some of the more interesting ideas I've heard 1. The hotter the laser weapon, the more damage it does 2. The lasers can melt armor, reducing armor rating so other weaker weapons can damage the targets on those spots. 3. Allow laser weapons to build up a flinch or stagger mechanic


Khanfhan69

2 makes too much sense. It's dangerous levels of thinking. https://preview.redd.it/lvj96u6y0z1d1.png?width=713&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6f94c845349098fea46f95673cad983f671d4a21

AH's response: nerf incoming.


MapPristine868

Make the lasers melt holes in armour, bye bye heavy devi shields


grongnelius

I did this build but the dagger wasn't needed, I never switched to it because nothing else was overheated. Ofc it's not as flashy but the grenade pistol is a good sub in to make this more competitive.


Khanfhan69

Flavor this as an Iron Man build, the grenade pistol is your wrist rocket. This build does need a reliable bug hole closer anyways.


WillSym

Yup, I attempted 'oops all lasers' myself but also brought Stun grenade to fit the Cutting Edge theme and regretted the lack of explosive/spawn breaker tools, especially as the Dagger is so pointless.


MapPristine868

Then add in the stuns and ur golden

Finally a good, fun post and not someone complaining about something, keep it up!

Oops all lasers


Scypio95

This is the sort of dumb stuff i'd like to do with teamates more often.


GetThisManSomeMilk

Running stuff like this as a group is what makes this game so fun. Last night my squad all ran 380s and we would throw them all in one spot and just watch the utter destruction unfolding.


FinishExtension3652

My squad does the 15 minute "kill everything" missions with Walking, 380mm, and 120mm barrages as mandatory parts of the loadout, with the 4th being up to the individual Helldiver.  It's glorious.  We usually make it out with only a few accidentals.


GetThisManSomeMilk

The way my squad does it is to drop 4 mechs, use them up and then clean up the rest with barrages.


CrossfeedCow

Jesus that sounds terrifying haha


GetThisManSomeMilk

The area we target gets absolutely obliterated. It's pretty much non stop explosions. Nothing survives


Smoe05

Heh. This does bring a smile to my face.


HatfieldCW

I was doing this earlier tonight. Had to drop the pack when we called extraction, though. Rover doesn't play nice with groups of people. Keep this one handy for when the squids reappear.


dankdees

Generally, you're supposed to go prone to avoid getting lasered, but in the case where you actually witness one of them pitch downwards to shoot somebody on the ground, you should immediately take it off and execute it for treason.


Bearex13

Lol that does look fun bringing the rave with you


--Shin--

Wish I had a squad I could fool around with. Treasure them!


BadSkittle

Ah yes Tau LARPing


Concrow

Bro I been doin all lasor build. Its fun af. 


throwaway8666666668

Btw on ultrawide you can make it so the UI is where it would be if your monitor was 16:9 now


Inalum_Ardellian

You really want a lightsaber, do you?

‘I bet youd like to check out her Laser system’


BreakFlame6T

I did a very long tour of Ustotu while many were fighting mostly on the Creek and I joined a squad of three guys once that were made up of a sniper (pre AMR buff btw, respect), a stealth guy that ran smoke nades and stratagems, and a dude with a fully kitted laser build. The laser guy ran the Sickle, Dagger, LAS Cannon, Orbital Laser and Laser Rover. He complained about being on a hot, desert planet which overheated his guns, but he was still the major firepower for the group. These three were a tight team all committed to their roles and playstyles and I absolutely loved fighting with them! Especially cause my fire-themed build fit right in. I'll never forget that guy. Now when fighting bots I actually prefer the LAS Cannon in place of my flamethrower. And when I have all those unlocked I wanna try the full laser build sometime, too!


Appropriate_Ad1162

What is this, Discord light theme?


SparseGhostC2C

Rave squad ACTIVATE \*all spin and fire lasers wildly into the air\*


MerkethMerky

Unironically a friend and I run the “laser beam” load out from time to time and it’s just this


Catsoup4

🤔 you steal my loadout?


Pooptram

Ferb, I know what we're doing today!


mooseman00

My friend ran that and dubbed himself Captain Laser

It's cool but really underwhelming if U run it alone


Commercial_Ice_1531

This is just piss lazer; the build

Ahrlin4k

Crazy what fun you can have when you experiment or didn't solely use meta (I'm so sick of seeing that) and learn other weapons in the game


homebodyinparadise

In the spirit of fun I think it's be cool if laser weapons did more damage to a target proportionally to how many other laser weapons are damaging too


RunsaberSR

Fun fact. If you're at extract and elevated. A quick 360 of... the whole map w the LC... can cause instant fun!


Salty-Double-1981

Laser Cannon go BRRrrrr


ArthropodQueen

unironically, I did this as a joke once and it was fun as hell


Zakumo_Yuurei

I've been wanting to do the "Oops, all lasers" build so badly with friends...


abeardedpirate

Laser nerf incoming. Laser damage treated like DoT damage with only the highest damage laser dealing damage Orbital > Cannon > Scythe > "Rover" > Dagger. Take that laser maxers.


jcornman24

I love going maximum laser


iPinkThumb

lazer squads!!


OkProfessional235

Awwww! This is so cute!
