Stress Testing Helldivers 2's Most EXPLOSIVE Crossbow - INSANE DAMAGE!

He stress-tests the CB9 Exploding Crossbow against Automatons and Terminids, comparing its 420-damage explosive bolts with the Eruptor. Its five-round magazine, slow restringing, tiny area-of-effect, lack of armor penetration, and poor ammo economy repeatedly frustrate him. It one-shots small enemies or headshots infantry and damages exposed limbs, but struggles against Hulks, armored Terminids, swarms, and flyers.

As in recent Helldivers reviews, practical enemy tests outweigh headline damage: he concludes this weapon is not worth using.
