Btw the prox fuse can be activated by other helldivers so if you fire it next to someone else who is also firing one or just someone else it will detonate. It also has a large hitbox so fire it in a clear space away from trees rocks or bushes.

I don't understand what happened with it tbh. It used to be impact trigger/very low range proximity and it was so much better to use. Right now it detonates 20m away from anything - and usually that includes in your face.

Remember people, airburst does _not_ strictly mean anti-air. It could be meant to shoot over cover and rain those bomblettes on stuff below. Definitely looks bugged, though.

im guessing it targeting anything infront of its cone FOV rather than what you paint with your reticle. if its working as intended then you have to be far away to hit your target and no friendlies or enemies can be near you

So the issue is this: As many have stated this weapon has a proximity fuse. this fuse will trigger on enemies, allies and any random level object that isn't foliage, trees, buildings or water. so if there is a stack of boxes, a random teaspoon, a lawn chair etc. between you and your intended target it will detonate early and of course there is no safety distance.

So I tested it and it´s really simple. If something is in your way that´s a bit higher than lets say half a meter, it will detonate. The ideal thing is a flat surface like water or a cliff, where you can shoot it down on enemies. I shot it on water at a group of bots and it killed 25 bots in one shot. When it works, it works extremely good.

Turns out that an alarming number of people don't grasp how it works. I think I have seen only a couple people use it from acceptable range and elevation. Most everyone is treating it like the EAT where you just point and shoot at something as it's charging right at you last minute and be fine. It's a little buggy, sure, and the devs are fixing it but I have a feeling that just like barrage strats- you'll be kicked outright for picking it.

The new airburst reminds me a lot of the Deathbringer rocket launcher from Destiny 2. Basically you click and hold to shoot, then you release when you want it to detonate. When you detonate it, it splits into multiple warheads essentially that then arc down until they hit something or the ground. I assume it's proximity based, but I'm also curious if they would consider switching to a click and release mechanism so you have a bit more control over when it detonates... Or maybe proxy for un-scoped and click and release to detonate scoped in.

When we messed around with it, it didn't pre-detonate if their we're no friendlies(or anything) within about 15-20 meters. Less than that, even behind you seems to trigger the proximity sometimes. Didn't do extensive testing or anything but it always worked right if the person firing ran out into the open first lol. Really needs a dumb fire zone for the first 15 meters or so.
@SPITSPHIRE16 днів тому
Im pretty sure what is happening is the rocket is programed to explode if an entity is within a certain distance of the rocket once fired, and because friendly fire is a thing in HD2 teammates count. So if a teammate is standing anywhere near you when you fire the rocket within this range, it will detonate.

An important tip when using this thing: If there are enemies close by, please PLEASE for the love of god do NOT SHOOT. Since The rockets are designed to detonate as soon as it's in range of enemies, it also means they are not picky about how close the enemies are. You will find the rocket blowing up in your face to kill that one scavenger that is roaming nearby instead of the huge herd of bugs that is 50 meters away. Just make sure there are no enemies nearby when you shoot lest you want to wipe your whole team.
