Helldivers 2 Gets Another Massive Buff Patch as Arrowhead Completes It's '60 Day Plan'
Arrowhead Game Studios’ latest Helldivers 2 patch has released a second mega buff patch following its last ‘Buffdivers’ patch released back in September. This double whammy of buff updates was part of a 60 day plan the studio enacted to win back the community after many patches of nerfs over the past few months.
The patch makes improvements to heavy armor, rebalances over 70 weapons and stratagems, makes another pass of nerfs on enemies such as Hulks, Chargers, Impalers, and Titans, and reduces the rockets fired by Devastators and Gunships.
Plasma weapons got some extra love in this update as Arrowhead delivered buffs throughout the game’s entire arsenal of plasma weaponry. Players who like to make things go boom with grenades will be happy to know that High Explosive, Frag, and Incendiary grenades also received significant buffs. Even Throwing Knives got some love.
On the stratagem side of things, the Autocannon and Recoilless Rifle were both given alternate ammunition options for different situations. Players can now enable flak on the Autocannon to better deal with close ranged encounters and the Recoilless Rifle gets high yield explosive ammo.
