What The Democratic Detonation Warbond In Helldivers 2 Brings To The Table

The Helldivers 2 Democratic Detonation Warbond brought along new ways to spread managed democracy, an explosive way. Just like any other Warbond, the Democratic Detonation Warbond introduces new weapons, armor, boosters, and a myriad of cosmetics. And with the theme of the Warbond being rather explosive, rest assured, it will allow you to deliver explosive justice to the enemies of humanity.

The items of this Warbond include:

  • The BR-14 Adjudicator: A medium penetration assault rifle that rips through medium enemies. Despite the lack of the Warbond’s combustible nature, this assault rifle is still a great choice to shred the enemies of freedom. Unfortunately, the BR-14 Adjudicator has a rather restrictive magazine of 30 rounds, so pick your targets carefully.
  • The R-36 Eruptor: A bolt-action rifle that fires jet-assisted rounds that explode into shrapnel in all directions. As mentioned before, this is a weapon that may cause limb loss if used carelessly. Similar to the Adjudicator, it has a small magazine of only five rounds, but its explosion and shrapnel make up for it.
  • The CB-9 Exploding Crossbow: A semi-automatic crossbow that fires powerful exploding bolts. Due to its nature, the explosive bolts will fall rather quickly after being fired, so make sure to compensate. The crossbow also has a bonus of only needing one hand to operate.
  • The GP-31 Grenade Pistol: A single-shot sidearm that fires HEAT (High-Explosive Anti-Tank) grenades. Its HEAT shell gives it the ability to penetrate medium enemies on a direct hit. Rest assured, WarThunder players, it works as intended.
  • The G-123 Thermite: A special throwable that can stick onto any surface with its spikes. After it adheres to a surface, it will then burn at over 2000°C/3632°F. After burning for a short duration, it will then explode and deal enough damage to destroy most enemies, except for the larger ones.
  • The FS-55 Devastator: A heavy armor sporting the Fortified armor passive. The Fortified armor passive reduces recoil when crouching or prone by 30%, and provides 50% resistance to explosive damage. Thus, protecting yourself from the explosions from enemies and your teammates.
  • The CE-27 Ground Breaker: A medium armor with the Engineering Kit armor passive. The Engineering Kit passive works similarly to the Fortified passive, except it equips you with two more grenades instead of explosive resistance. As mentioned before, this armor supplies you with the means of throwing more bundles of absolute democracy.
  • The CE-07 Demolition Specialist: An intermediate light armor with the same passive as the Ground Breaker. An intermediate armor means that it sits between armor classes. In this case, the Demolition Specialist armor sits in between light and medium, which gives Helldivers a little nuance.
  • The Expert Extraction Pilot Booster: This booster decreases the time it takes for the extraction shuttle to reach your location. It reduces the time by 30%, meaning that a 2-minute extraction timer will shorten to 1 minute and 24 seconds. This booster is perfect for those who want to get out of dodge immediately.
