Quasar Cannon Stress Test & BREAKDOWN in Helldivers 2

hey look enemy sighted get that guy he's wanted for crimes against humanity hey there everyone Aran here to bring you the latest and greatest news on the allnew quizar cannon added in the most recent patch I'm going to be going over everything the weapon is capable of details on its functionality as well as my opinions on how this new support strategy is best utilized as a disclaimer all of my videos and all of my testing is carried out on the game's highest difficulty of Hell dive to give you the most accurate information possible on how well this gear holds up against the game's most challenging mode so let's get into it first of all the quazar cannon has infinite ammo and a heat sink like other laser weapons however uniquely this weapon locks itself from overheating to the point of needing a sink change out instead enforcing a cooldown period between shots of roughly 5 Seconds which can be affected by both the hot and cold planets I will say however that even on a hot Planet the cool down felt completely fine if anything it felt more balanced while cold Planet testing was unavailable as we've been very effective in our Liberation lately good work out there divers this weapon is essentially an eat without the e part as its damage and Effectiveness is very similar in nature besides the short wind up period before the shot is fired with the addition of infinite ammo meaning this weapon can also be freely utilized against any enemy moderately inconveniencing you as well as regularly used to close both bug net nests and Fabricators through the vent notably vent shots with this weapon are also in my opinion much more forgiving in angle than say the autoc Cannon worth keeping in mind as its ease of use against Fabricators has me questioning the Spear's usage once again the quazar reticle is also slightly inaccurate as there is some immediate fall off on the shot so aim a little bit high now that we're none discussing the technical aspects of the weapon what targets is it effective against well all of them every hard armored enemy hell divers 2 can throw at you this weapon is capable of putting down to go into the specifics of how many shots you can expect this to happen in let's go through the common anti-tank targets one by one the bio Titan is easily bullied by a few quar cannons as it takes anywhere between two to four shots on average to bring them down aiming for around the head region there's also rumors of being able to get one- shot kills of course to the mouth but I was unable to confirm these during testing the charger is effortlessly eliminated with one shot to the Head easily timed after dodging them as by the time they turn around it is good night it will also strip the armor in a single shot to the leg and kill through the leg in a second shot as you would expect the quizard dispatches each stock of the shrier layer in just two shots and instantly destroys the sport Towers in just one shot conveniently from any range and again infinite ammo no reason to not use it for this between its Effectiveness against both the bug Heavies and its convenience when destroying both nests and Sher layers this leaves the squad packing quizar to be extremely formidable against the bugs as bringing a primary that handles everything medium or smaller will leave your Squad feeling completely unthreatened even on difficulty n by the bugs on our first drop with the quer in fact my team and I felt so strong that we forgot that we even had other strategy and just didn't use them so there was that now as far as the Bots are concerned you will see the quazar feeling competitive with your other options but not blatantly overpowered it is capable of destroying hulks from the front in just two shots or one difficult shot to the Head the charge up however generally against automaton leaves much more room to be punished for utilizing it so try to charge the majority of your shots from behind cover before peing you're also able to kill Cannon turrets and tanks in just two shots to the front or funny enough just one shot to the heat sink coupled with a singular plas one shot sends them on their way something we found very enjoyable was the qu's infinite ammo giving us the ability to very carelessly take down enemy drop ships in one shot as they come in to their thrusters unfortunately Arrowhead messed up the corpses on heavy enemies at some point causing them to no longer very often crush the enemies dropped between them it does however make you feel cool and with the infinite ammo again why not right the quar is also able to One-Shot Devastators to the Torso as you would expect although it will not pen and eliminate heavy Devastators through their Shield the number of these enemies run into will leave you also wanting to instead utilize a strong primary for the task of Devastator elimination instead as the wind up to kill just one feels a bit dramatic as I mentioned earlier the quar very easily lands shots into the vent causing f Fabricators to explode with relatively low effort requiring no strange Ricochet instead being very straightforward as any shot that lands inside the vent seems to cause a detonation as my closing statement for the bot side of this breakdown I'll say the quara sits in a competitive spot with other support and at options you would typically bring in such as the spear for Fabricators the autoc cannon for hybrid fabricator and combat and the rail gun you would potentially bring solely for combat it requires no backpack slot as well so this is also a huge Pro it has as well considering your other options all in all a very solid support weapon option for Bots and an absolutely devastating option to bring along for bugs the likes of which we haven't seen since the pre-nerf rail gun that's going to do it for my quick breakdown of all you need to know about the quizar cannon and I hope you found this video helpful thank you for watching till the end and have a wonderful day see you and now another helpful tip from General Brash aavin has gone above and beyond to contribute so much information and so little time with his field testing for this I am ordering all active hell divers to like comment and subscribe to his channel failure to do so will result in the quazar cannon being nerfed immediately Brash tactics use them or die trying
