The LAS-16 SICKLE: Testing the only LASER Type rifle in Helldivers 2 (INSANE DAMAGE)
Space play/pause · J/L seek 10s · [ ] previous/next
Summary
He introduces the LAS-16 Sickle: 55 damage, 750 fire rate, light penetration, burst lasers, and a 1,000-super-credit Cutting Edge unlock. Testing shows excellent rapid crowd control and little reloading, but overheating is quick and medium/heavy armor largely defeats it. He blames failed missions, matchmaking/Hellpod glitches, and poor balance, calling it inferior to familiar weapons and not worth super credits.
Insight
A monetizable Helldivers 2 focus shifts here from testing new content to condemning perceived weapon-balance decline.
