- I have mastered the Plas-101 Purifier. Here's how I use it on the hardest difficulty in Helldivers 2 (helldive - 9).

lookn fwd to the comments "oh my gawd your teammates carryeded you so hard you didnt even do the mission!"
and
"(insert timestamp) punisher plasmascorcher would be better here"
blahdiblahdiblah
genuinely. I await them.
eagerly
bated breath
so are u saying if someone commented this- he would be factually wrong?
@@afielsch any statement that contradicts anything i've ever said or attempted to demonstrate is obviously totally factually wrong, yes. that's exactly what im saying!
@@Mogz-hd alright!
There is a HUGE difference between the Dominator and the Purifier when it comes to viability in a match. lol. HUGE. I will even say that the Purifier would be a GREAT weapon... if... If... IF they removed the totally uneeded and unwanted Charge Up feature. Its not only uncharacteristic of the weapon type, its hated hinderance to the weapon. This isnt the Scorches big bother, or even an upgade. its BAD design. The ONLY other weapon type that uses a charge up (that isnt a strategem) are the ones in the Electricity class (Blitzer, arc, etc), NOT the Plasma Class. It would be one thing if you could fire as quickly as a shotgun whee you had to rack a slide, but could still quick fire, but between the slow fire, and the AOE together its too much.
Also Im not accusing, just commenting here, but HOLY HELL LOL that is the LEAST hectic Helldive difficulty Ive seen! Ive been running 5-7's with friends this week and they have been way more hectic. Good job making it look easy
This weapons CONS do NOT balance out its Pros!
Cons:
-Charge Up
-No Indicator like most weapons had to add in later to que its at charge. (you really cant count purely audio as in the head of combat, you cant hear audio cues)
-Same HORRIBLE SCOPE as Scorcher. Pls Fix both lol
-You have to LITERALLY rely on either side arm AND/OR Stratagem slots to cover for its poor firing rate.
-RoF is a LIE!!!!!! It reads as 250?!?! Yeah Nah.
FYI i ran about 10 helldives with the purifier. this was just the one where i used it the most n personally played/shot well. I think maybe it looks easy cos most players who run Helldive are fairly experienced players n therefore of above average skill… ie. my teammates were cracked
On the new swamp planet theres a incredibly subtle yet creepy easter egg, eyes from something watching from the tree roots. They are not from any Terminid or automaton I've seen. They are very hard to notice
I’m not mad at the weapon. It’s meant to stun large group of enemies. It’s not my cup of “liber-tea” but it has its purpose. I do wish it did more damage.
I think it definitely needs a buff
I'm a fan of embracing the niche weapons. Back when everyone else crapped on the Blitzer pre-buff, I mastered it and had a blast.
I do genuinely wonder what the Devs had in mind with the Purifier as a playstyle/best practice. I suspect it might shine when the Illuminate show up...
Plasma weapons will be essentially useless when the Illuminate show up.
But why wouldn't i just use the plasma punisher instead?
The higher penetration on the projectile was a great step toward giving the Purifier a bit more of a defined identity in relation to the other plasma weapons but it still needs a bit more to set it apart. Bumping the projectile damage so it can 1 shot Devastator heads would be huge since the other 2 can’t do this.
I have been using the purifier against bots recently and by golly is it great. I usually keep some distance from bots and play a support role rather than rushing the objective. The purifier allows me to stagger devastators and striders and also crowd control from a distance too. If they get close I just shoot the ground and let the blast do the magic. Haven’t tried it against bugs though but against bots I think it will perform better. If a damage buff like up to 300 or a faster charge-up it will place the purifier at a better position.
A damage of at least 350 would make a lot of sense, since every shot charges and it's a flat damage no matter how long you charge it. I don't like the fact that I gotta waste time charging 3-5 shots on a medium size enemy when other guns like Dominator, Scorcher, or rail gun can do a better job. For me, currently, this gun doesn't have an identity.
Yeah haters are weird, they act like you are attacking their builds or banning them from using anything other than the purifier. Its a perfectly fine weapon, not busted but useful and if your teammates are running the 'meta' stuff, then its actually better to run some other gear to fill gaps and support
There's a difference between actual contribution and dragging the team down though. For example, if you bring the ballistic shield to the terminid side... That's just largely useless, where you could have had other strategems that may help the team more
It is not a perfectly fine weapon. A charge up shot for a flat damage of 250? Might as well use either, Dominator, scorcher, or railgun for similar features with way more efficiency. The Purifier is in a terrible state and there no point in using it over other weapons, when you're wasting time charging up 3-5 shots on a medium size enemy.
@@CloudyB_MT my brother in christ not everyone is trying to min max this PvE game. some people want to use weapons they find cool. we're not trying out for helldivers competitive or something
I actually really like the Purifier and have been using it quite frequently since I unlocked it maybe a month ago! The accuracy and range on the Purifier just makes it very reliable for supporting your teams further back and peeling/sofening mobs for them so they can reload or reposition. Personally I just pair it with an AMR and bring Orbital EMS and Gas/Smoke (Depending if it's a bugs/bots mission) strike for a more supportive role.
Its a weapon like the blitzer, where it was niche till it was buffed. I really like to go against the grain when playing games with builds, so i appreciate it when you see people championing the unorthodox weapons. I try to play it as often too, hopefully it gets the adjustments to make it really something to play in a variety of loadouts in the future.
im thinking about switching to this weapon from the scorcher his mass stagger of enemies like the shieldmarauder is no small feat. also its abillity to kill multiple enemies unlike the scorcher (the aoe is a joke) is nice, and if you get in melee you can use weapons like the amr as a makeshift shotgun or use a pistol if you dont use the grenade one. was nice to see how it works on bugs thx for the video. the behemoth charger can still be onehited, just no longer from the head
I think this was a much better argument than the other two vids, good stuff.
The purifier is great against the bugs. If do a little more with damage buffs than it’s going to be legit asf.
yeh man i think 50 more dmg would make it chefs kiss
If it's shiny it's worth it.

just bump the fire rate up to 1 shot/sec and increase the projectile size, that would feel so much better.
it already shoots at 1 shot per sec. Just gota know when to release the shot
Let it shoot at 0.75 second with appropriately less damage so there’s some give and take, and also so the weapon is less annoying to use when you release the trigger too early
@@Mogz-hd isn't the current fire rate is 1 shot per 1.3 sec?
@@ewy4010 nope. see my vid here:
ruclips.net/video/a6SLBllrIKk/видео.htmlsi=RtsSI0bQqBS00uqu&t=71
(from timestamp)
in fact i think its even slightly less than 1 second if you fire it PERFECTLY
Does it pop bug holes?
nope
The question is - can it take a gunship?
ye takes a while tho
I’ve Tried and failed miserably
haha awww.. not sure how much uv used it but i had to sink many many hours into it b4 i was comfortable enough to try this
I still think that pummeler Is top while purifier isnt near that. And punisher plasma Is more fun and last thing is that charge up still which makes it not so great. Scorcher with no charge much faster shooting sligtly less dmg and around same aoe? Both are better same with breaker and i. Breaker. It might be ok, but nowhere near S rank as you people call them. Now since xbow can also destroy structures... Dont see reason to use it over those.
never called anything s tier bruv
@@Mogz-hd Maybe you aint, yet thats how it Is. You want something perfect, this isnt it you know. Thats it. Fun? Punisher plasma as primary. You want op? Plasma shotgun, i. Breaker, breaker. Op fun, just saying that as long as they keep this weapon like that, charge up and all else. Only great thing is ammo... If you add higher pen, it would make sense that chargeup means something over scorcher, so far only clear win is dmg. Thx to aoe it looks like pen Is same...
it is very much viable
Nah it still sucks
@@jamestillman5247 nah its fine, its in the better half of weapons
first😊❤
