This has literally been happening with any gun that performs more than one task lol
Excellent choice of words. The gun is balanced, not OP. But also very fun!
It's got too much weapon sway
@@LazyEyePoliticsI.e. balance
@LazyEyePolitics It's a giant rifle what do you expect.
@@LazyEyePoliticsoh look a downside that allows the weapon to have such great damage
Just press ctrl to avoid animation
For those that don’t know you can actually shoot down gunships with the erupter
Good to know
Yeah, I found out by FAFO(F’ing Around Finding Out) XD
Not very good at it trough, the low bullet velocity makes it easy to miss
Yeah if you're strapped for choice and have nothing to take them down with, it works. The bullet speed though makes it a little tough as they strafe quite a bit.
HOW i tryed and didnt work
Tips for those of you who want to main this weapon (I haven't taken the eruptor off since it came out):
- you can insta kill tanks with one of any rocket launcher to the face and a single eruptor shot to the front
- cannot kill hulks/takes too many shots to the front to kill
- you can create your own cover by shooting the ground 3 times then laying in the crater if you need a place to hide from the bots in a pinch
- the shrapnel from the blast reflects off of any surface the explosion impacts so it's a good strategy to not aim for the lead enemy in a group but the guys right behind them so the explosion kills everything at once instead of just the front guy
- you can hot swap with this weapon to skip the bolting animation to make it fire faster (fire > swap to any weapon > as soon as you see your guy grab your swapped weapon swap back > ready to shoot again)
- you can close bug holes and fabricators by shooting them
- always run this weapon with stun grenades since you don't need regular grenades to close fabs/bug holes and the stuns are amazing for creating space if things get close to you (especially against hulks)
- there's a very slight drop on the bullet even though it's a jet propelled projectile
- you can very easily rely on the third person aiming mode to hit shots, it's not like other games where you have to scope in or else your bullet goes in a random direction (all guns fire in the direction their barrel is pointing)
- shield generator pack prevents you from getting knocked over/damaged from the explosion if you fire it point blank (I like to run it on bots and rover on bugs so I don't have to aim at hunters jumping at me all the time)
- bile titan sacs can be 2 shot to stop them from spitting although this weapon struggles a lot to secure the kill
- one shots bile spewers. Nursing spewers you can hit anywhere on the head but regular ones you need to hit the sac on their chin, in the mouth, or the side of their face to one shot.
- always reload with one bullet left, you'll know that you have one bullet left when the magazine icon turns red. Since the magazine size is so low it's very easy to tell when you have one round left and reloading doesn't waste that round as it remains in the chamber. This also skips the long reload animation where you have to pull the bolt back
- charger backs explode in like 4 shots but you have to hit the underside and not the armor or else it bounces
any other tips are appreciated!
It’s because there are so few primaries that feel good to use. Every time there is one they nerf it.
Dominator, scorcher, punisher, slugger (yes its still good) liberator you can still use in helldive, sickle!
@@snap26neo yes, notice he said "few".
And no, slugger is not good anymore, it's replaced by the dominator. The knockback was the main pro of the gun and they essentially got rid of it.
Sickle is a really good wave clearing weapon, but I find that the lack of medium armor penetration makes it far too unideal overall, and you're better off just 1-2 shotting trash with the scorcher or dominator (even if they're much less ammo efficient)
This gun is good until you get swarmed and then it's like it fucking sucks mate😂love how they balanced it
easy fix dont get swarmed
@@MIGSmoakzif only it was so simple
@@MIGSmoakz you only really need to worry about being swarmed on terminids, and even then, you just take rover and you won't really get swarmed
Picked it up yesterday, very good. However, the minimum range is a massive deterrent. If you're a run and gun player, it's not a weapon you'll want to use. However, if you're like me, and like to hang back with a spear+back pack, and rock this sucker, it's awesome. Just make sure you have a good handgun as backup.
Run and gun guy hear you can use it with no problem, only need a good short tange alternative wen the situation became to close and personal.
It’s still decent at run and gun at least against automatons, i like to bring the machine pistol to make up for the slow rate of fire and lack of short range capabilities on the eruptor
For bugs I run the redeemer and the rover to keep the hunters and other close range off my back, quaser for heavies naturally and that leaves the erupter for everything else and man just the ability to one shot bile spewers and stalkers make it a must have for me
I found myself thinking the same thing. It won’t be replacing my Scorcher, that’s for sure.
THIS. Everyone is saying it's the next best thing but honestly I do better with the Scorcher.
@@frozenheroe3771 na its the next best thing bro lol
@@bigmoneyshmoneymaker7697 I've changed my mind. I've been using it the past hour and it's decent when you pair it with stun grenades. Shooting the ground near basic bots is pretty nice.
@@frozenheroe3771 theres just something about getting a 17k with one shot or one-hit clearing an entire wave of basic bots from a dropship that just feels so good
I have oofed myself more than once due to the time it takes for the end of the barrel to clear environment or a wall of a building im using for cover, but it is my MAIN weapon now, and i can finally make proper use of a machine gun
After watching your stream I went and watched a few more reviews and I think your choice of word "balanced" is accurate. I'm new to the game so trying to be judicious with what I spend on at the moment
I'd say it's definitely worth spending medals and credits on. Feels fun to use and is definitely among the best weapons in the game currently, although not for how directly powerful it is. Don't get me wrong, it's by no means OP, but the versatility and utility the weapon offers gives it at least one spot on every team currently (probably not two but I could see a use depending on the mission type).
the new grenade in this warbond is very good too but bugged to only work some missions and others it's does 0 damage. if that helps with deciding. grenade pistol is very clunky but useful as an alternative for grenades when you use non explosive grenades for utility. crossbow is very fun but doesn't work like a crossbow. its a lob aoe weapon instead but good for stealth. imo the armor on page 2 is what makes the warbond above average. light armor (run faster faster stamina regen) with reduced recoil while standing and +2 grenades. page 1 gives you a throw everything farther passive too so for one war bond you can have 2 unique armors.
cutting edge armors look the coolest but passives are... well they are something that exist thats for sure
For what it is, it's pretty nice. If you find yourself in a good firing position, you can lay some long distance pain. Once enemies get close though, it's helpful to have friends or be handy with your secondary. I just wish that the round could cover up to 200m before exploding.
It doesn't break the game but it's a strong platform that does well when paired with something like the stalwart or another machine gun
Or the AMR, it’s not a primary weapon tbh so if u use it like a primary ur gonna have a bad time.
I enjoy running it with the Stalwart against bugs. Stalwart is basically a stronger Liberator, and Eruptor is basically a weaker Autocannon. Popping bile spewers with it is so, so satisfying. Just remember to bring call ins to deal with Bile Titans. 500kg plus either EAT or orbital railcannon.
It's got good uses against bots as well, but I prefer running Dominator+AMR and stun grenades. But if I've got a teammate who has it, I stick with them, because it complements your loadout well. It eats walkers and gunships (which you *can* kill, but aren't particularly amazing at), and you can easily cover the things they have trouble with. Fantastic two man team.
I love this gun.
Solo is different and I feel like the advice in this video mostly fits that situation where you need something for everything.
On a team, I don’t bother running a secondary weapon. You can make it work and when it’s not practical you can use a pistol, I suggest the redeemer for this purpose. Maybe bring +2 grenades if you need a little more get out of jail free cards.
Vs bots I run four non-weapon stratagems and it works great if I have teammates. I usually contribute the most kills and often do not die, even without a shield pack, because I stay back and support. Crush the medium stuff and toss a stratagem into every fight.
Vs bugs I run a secondary- arc, mg, flame, laser are all good choices.
Eruptor is fun as hell but very risk/reward. If you get overrun or blow your shots you'll probably end up dead.
I agree with your take 100%. It's impressive single shots and great on lower levels when you have plenty of time and not under pressure, but at higher levels I much prefer the buffed Dominator, which can deal with smaller bots and beserker bots that get up in your face without blowing you up. It's basically a support weapon which means you really need to spend a slot getting a primary weapon effect, so you're not really any better off slot wise or you're gimped against smaller trash.
Also, the Eruptor's slow fire rate allows rocket devastaors to get rockets off in between shots, whereas the Dominator can keep them staggered until you drop them, even if it does take more shots, you have 3 times as many shots in a mag. Try the Eruptor first and then switch to the Dominator with more shots, faster fire rate and quicker aim, and you will appreciate the difference.
Dominator is still my go too but glad you made this video cause everyone load out is the same cause of the internet.
People are going to use new weapons when they come out, that should be completely expected. It has less to do with the "hype" - most players don't religiously watch RUclips videos on the game.
@@sidpomyi’m not so sure that’s true when it comes to the helldiver community
because the eruptor can deal with every enemy bug except Bile Titans (unless their armor is exposed).
The other weapons just need to be on the level of the Eruptor
i identify as P-4 Senator
Yes!! Pls give us armor with a reload speed perk so that I may main hand our glorious senator!!
My entire identity centers around this gun and an attack on this gun is an attack on my character. How dare you…
MY LOADOUT for bug !!
Primary - Eruptor because its can do all the job like close bug hole , crack open container . mostly 1 -2 shot medium , 2 -4 shot on Heavy all depends on u aim .
secondary - Redeemer for close combat and clear all the small bug .
Grenade - Stun grenade because Eruptor can also use as grenade because it explosive radius so no need to bring HE , or impact grenade
1 slot - shield backpack or Rover backpack mostly Rover backpack because its can kill bug while u are running from horde .
2 slot - Stalwart Machinegun / FlameThrower ( Stalwart always my choice when im playing with team but when solo im using Flamethrower )
3 slot - EAT or orbital railgun cannon . ( use of clear Titan after using 500kg ) depends what my team loadouts
4 slot - 500kg use for killing Bile Titan
So Far the best loadout for me when im doing helldive with my team mate .
😘😘😘
It's fantastic when paired with a support weapon that can deal with lots of light armor enemies like a flamethrower or stalwart.
Also: shooting the bots out of their dropships is super easy with this gun, it’ll consistently kill all the baby troops and striders with one bullet leading to around 10-15 kills per shot most of the time
I think it’s fantastic on larger maps, particularly if your squadmates are all running weapons like the Sickle that excel in taking out the basic mobs while you focus on the mediums. But both the AMR and Railgun can offer very similar utility. And it really sucks on the small maps like eradicate or evacuate missions where you have to move a lot and the enemies swarm you. I agree that the Dominator is a much more well rounded weapon and can fill most of the same role while also being much more useful up close which is why it’s my usual choice.
Thé reload was exactly the reason why it didn’t do it for me. Nice to see someone bringing that up.
Dominator has been my main weapon as soon as I could get it. It doesn't do everything, but when you die and you no longer have your support weapon, I never felt like I was helpless. I could still kill most enemies, slower but I could. Eruptor is similar in this way.
Dominator worked against bugs really well when paired with guard dog rover to kill the smaller enemies and redeemer to kill pesky hunters.
This gun fits a role in a squad. I was using it last night with my squad and I became in charge of dealing with devastators and striders. Also finished off lingering fabricators which allowed my team to bring stuns if they wanted. My team would mostly clear the rank and file to keep me safe while I targeted the bigger enemies. I found myself barely using the support weapon I brought(stalwart,arc thrower) so with a coordinated team you could gain an extra stratagem slot by not bringing one. I think it provides great versatility to a team.
yeah I agree and would go so far as to say that against bots you dont need a support primary. Groups of bots die in 1 shot and the sawblade guys die in 1 shot/get stunned as a group so even tho it takes a while you can deal with em. Against bugs tho is another matter entirely haha.
Thanks for being honest I agree 100% people overhyping this weapon for no reason
Not no reason. RUclips incentivizes the clickbait.
@@NyJoanzy it’s actually just gotten annoying with a lot of games but I trust myelin as I’ve always enjoyed his lore videos but yea I deff shoulda got the steeled veterans warbond instead this one kinda sucks not too bad tho I already have like 500 credits so I’ll get the rest just by playing for the weekend
It’s a REALLY good weapon. And there’s tech right now which lets you shoot twice as fast, rocketing it to maybe the best for bugs. The amount of utility it has for a primary slot weapon is insane.
Most youtubers claim stuff is op, usually the new stuff. To get you to buy the new stuff. Anyone above the age of 12 sees this I hope. Thank you for being honest you earned a sub.
I think Eruptor is small Autocannon, just like Blitzer is small Arc Thrower. They inherited main attribures of suppot weapon, but make the, weaker.
Same with grenade pistol - grenade launcher and senator - slugger
You don't even really need to pair it with a stalwart/crowd clear stratagem. Just something to deal with heavies. In my opinion, this gun is like a mini autocannon, that doesn't require a backpack, making it extremely versatile. Its great at clearing hoards if you place your shots in crowds and can destroy multiple medium units at a time. Half the time you don't even have to hit the shot, just somewhere near the enemy. Having a primary weapon that can shut down factories and bug holes easily puts it at the level of the scorcher. I think that the dominator is not quite as good as the scorcher or the eruptor. Not being able to shoot through strider armor is a big downfall of the dominator.
Dominator can shoot through scout strider. The little part that joins the body to the legs you can pen, same with the tip of the leg. Not as effective though. Re: support stratagem, I think it depends on the team and difficulty, as I started doing more helldivers with it, just needed that support weapon more with increased breaches.
Dominator also can stumble striders, which is hilarious
I like running it with the redeemer to deal with small bots that are alone or close to me, and a shield and quasar cannon. The shield gives you time to line up your shots since the sway speed is so slow.
When i first unlocked it i immediately took recoilless rifle, senator and stun grenades. There was one guy with Cesar cannon and two others with autocannons. I was great helping with any kind of enemies. Drop ships? I can help with. Hulk? I can help with. Crowd of devastators? I can help with. Striders? Regular bots? One shot and there is -10. And yeah u need someone to keep u safe to be able to help with everything XD.
IMO the gun is very fun and well balanced
I find it very odd that you can't kill hulks with it. With such a sluggish, big caliber and slow weapon you would expect to headshot hulks with it.
I like it because I feel so cool running around with my jetpack, stopping for half a second to line up a shot that takes out a Fabricator.
Let me tell you, this weapon is a dream for Bot Blitz missions. Bring the Quasar or Laser Cannon and a Jetpack and you’re just cruising around blowing shit up from a distance.
Edit: also, 1 shot with Quasar and 1 shot with Eruptor to weakspot kills all turrets, mortars, cannons, tanks
Great for closing bug holes from a distance because I can’t seem to lob grenades correctly.
0:48 Im pretty sure, new explosive weapon create mini black hole for split second on the point of impact, and thats why you fly towards explosion xD
The reload is really quick if you keep one in the chamber, shoot 4 shots then reload also saving ammo that way and reload cancel to make it shoot faster.
I thought it was op in the first impression, but it really isn't. I think people are forgetting how good and important a tool your primary weapon always is. It is always easily more important than any one of your called down strategems.
Also I kinda love how I keep making setups with it and the grenade pistol that do feel OP as long as I'm in control of the situation and maintaining range, but then it gets ugly if I start to be a bit swarmed and worst of all if a couple brawlers make it into melee with me and I'm stuck with "Oh - F, gotta throw hands I guess". And it often doesn't go so well. And that is the balance.
However, that is a solo experience. I wonder if it might actually be too good (for one person or two) in a well coordinated group.
Maybe, just maybe, running dual support weapon is just a thing that makes sense as a potential option in the loadout ecosystem and this is the first weapon that introduces it and the meta just needs some time.
Yeah excalty, that is why I started running stalwart or flame thrower to deal with the enemy rush.
Teamwork is OP, no matter the game. People *ALWAYS* forget this
I initially thought the benefit of always having this as your primary whenever you die was going to be huge - but personally, I found myself in maybe only 1 outta 5 games in situations where I couldn't get back to my fallen gear and/or wasn't able to call in new ones. Maybe this case is better for newer players who might die more often in precarious positioning.
Ironically, I use this WITH the AMR and find it to be an excellent mid-to-long range support weapon along with the AMR. The ability to AoE trash and kill off big targets in the same while taking out closed-in targets on my own is a feeling I have not had per this point yet. I am LOVING this gun and find it to be a balanced build between the speed of the Scorcher, and the AoE potential of a grenade. Personally find it to fit my playstyle very well and I'm happy they keep doing these "it feels like this but not quite" sorta choices for weapons.
Don't start with that undemocratic AMR TALK! LUL
I think it's appeal to me is it makes support weapons like stalwart or arc thrower more viable. You can use those as your primary and the eruptor becomes your support.
I think peeps need to learn that certain Loadouts can be OP or strong, not individual weapons or stratagems. Just like a couple of weeks ago people were hyping up the Quasar as an OP weapon, but its only good if you pair it with the right Loadout to deal with multiple situations.
If I can use it in place of the anti material rifle and call in a stalwart or a machine gun it's sort of worth it but I will wait for the next warbond before committing.
Yeah, pretty much
What is unique about this as a primary is how much damage and utility it does. This means that it totally alters your build unlike most of the feeble primaries.
Always helpful Myelin. Thanks!
I like it for builds myself. was sick of the Autocannon meta, plus it gives me something I can rock to avoid death spirals while the support weapons drop in
Once you get the hang of playing with this gun it is so much fun i dont use another weapon as a prinary i go eruptor quasar cannon orbital laser 500kg and guard dog rover and because of the explosion and shrapnel u can crowd control very effectively and guard dog takes out anything that does manage to get to close
Against bots I was comfortably able to use the Eruptor, Senator and Eagle Airstrike to handle most things. I was playing a match where I was hitting all the POIs by myself to build up samples while the team handled the other areas of the map.
As an eruptor enjoyer, the is THE best review I've seen on this BY A MILE AND A HALF
The Erupter with the flamethrower/napalm combo and the new ship upgrade for fire damage, and a rover is my new bug loadout. I got like 580 ki11s on a match earlier
I like using eruptor+stalwart(or use anything for clearing) but i keep having trouble vs chargers/titans and dnt give me the "use stratagems" bc u only get 2 500kg and 1 railcannon b4 it goes on cd and i been getting 3 chargers in each patrol that can breach with more chargers and 2+ titans and more patrols while u're kiting. It gets hectic w/o the quesar to quick kill the chargers. It was still fun tho lol
When I first grabbed this gun and saw all that it could do I was blown away, thought it was insane. And tbf it kind of is. But the more I've played with it I've come to the same conclusion that it has sufficient drawbacks that keep balanced. It's powerful and fun, but it can't do it all.
I think it's pretty well balanced. Limited range, slower to aim, slow firing, slow reloading, limited range, and it isn't very accurate by itself. If I had to choose between this and the AMR for a support weapon, I'd choose the AMR.
Call me crazy but I'm using the guard dog as my "primary" with the eruptor. I can shoot at bigger targets while the drone works on the smaller guys.
All fair points and I don't think the weapon is OP - just effective. I did a few lvl 7 bug missions and it slaps hard against spewers, which was very nice. Pair it with a rover instead of stalwart for a good time. It also requires a very different playstyle where you hang back and take care of mediums and groups of lights with extreme prejudice while your teammates push forward.
Yep yep
I tried it for one game and found the drawbacks outweigh the advantages. The limited range is a huge drawback for me. As an Autocannon player I rely on the range to destroy targets from far away. Be it a spore spewer, an illegal transmission, or cannon turrets. And combined with the low rate of fire it's a no-brainer to me to keep the autocannon in the support weapon slot and use it as such, rather to bring the Eruptor and use something like the Stalwart as a mob clearer - which is tempting and I bet it works well, but I find the autocannon better.
It's a downgrade from the Autocannon in the same way that the Stalwart is an upgrade from the Liberator. If you want to run a Liberator+Autocannon loadout that is a little more shooty and a little less explody, Eruptor+Stalwart is the way to do it. Also frees up your backpack slot, which is nice.
Отличное видео. С этой снайперкой я наверное впервые задумался над вопросом: а с чем мне ее совместить?
Точно такой же вопрос я задал себе например с новым пистолетом. А с чем его можно совместить? Например со стан гранатами
I prefer the adjudicator tbh. But if ya swap to your secondary the back to the eruptor it cancels the aim animation bc its linked to the gun not uour character
I think the eruptor,stalwart,stun grenade and grenade pistol are gonna be my go to
I jokingly refer to it as "The Semi-Autocannon" because the fire rate is not great, but MAN the payload is worth it, for me at least =]
I absolutely love this weapon and haven't been able to put it down.
I agree people saying things like this being OP is excessive, and so apparently everything is OP.
I will continue to shoot cluster bombs joyfully whether it's OP or not, I just hope it doesn't get ruined from adjustments.
The only thing I want from the new warbond is the grenade launcher pistol
i wouldn't say balance but it lean more to the strong side. Effective at clearing bug holes, eggs, fabricators, ship, mobs and some tough opponents. Its like a stratagem on primary. Yes it have drawbacks such as being a bolt action rifle, long rounds per mag, slow bullet speed, effective range and being explosive means close quarter combat is gonna be suicide BUT some of its pros outweigh the cons. Unlike the cough cough adjudicator which has noo redeemable quality other than being an automatic rifle.
I love using the eruptor because i now have a full explosive build. Play what you want and have fun playing
my load out with eruptor is
p 19 / stun grenade / light amour /500kg boom / ob airbust strike or ob railcanon / guard dog rover / arc thrower
i feel very ez to compele the level 9 on terminid
I love the Eruptor and run it on any mission that isn't a defense. Still get absolutely juggled by anything more than two or three automatons though. Heavy devastators are the worst culprit for it.
I loved it until I was in a 4 man group where the other three guys liked getting into cqc all the time, I was using my pistol 90% of the game. It's good and the large aoe is fantastic for group clearing and taking down certain medium and heavies....but it can be a huge drawback too for sure. Also we REALLY need more pistols, another handcannon with maybe more ammo, buff the senator, maybe a mid damage high armor piercing pistol with a moderate mag, maybe an actual silenced pistol!
I prefer adjudicator and xbow over eruptor. I’m really excited that marksman rifles will most likely be getting a rework and the adjudicator will get even better
Very accurate analisis on the weapon. It's a very fun weapon but absolutly not op require god positioning an adequate loadout to support the it, for bots mission, for example I'm running the rover and the mg 43 for close combat with impact granade for extra croud controll and power against devastetor or tank. The weapon has an high trade in stratagems for make it work.
This gun is balanced, it's a sidegrade to most other weapons in game. It excells in some thing while failing in others, which is perfect.
I personally prefer marksman rifles, even if they need upgrade. When it comes to this warbond, I'm much more happy with grenade pistol, since most grenades I use can't close bug holes, and I often rely on picking any support wepon I find on map to just have more stratagems.
Eruptor is fine, but not for me at the moment, and I'm glad to see someone approaching new things with cool head instead of going with sensationalized "Everything is either OP or trash"
The bolt action slide is killing this rifle the assault rifles could use a damage buff they aren't usable in higher levels for some of us.
I totally agree I'm glad someone is finally honest about this weapon...🎉🎉
I do agree it's just a balance average gun most people in helldiver exaggerate they calling everything buff
Honestly, I think the jar dominator holds out better against bots since it has 10 more rounds, i have no idea why ppl say its better against bugs it can clearly stunlock any devastator with ease, and the reload is not horrible, but I still got the eruptor, dunno if I personally like it yet since I just got it and got off. The only thing I really want from this pass is the last armour set and the grenade pistol
Videos like this make me hopeful they won't nerf the Eruptor. It's still S tier by almost any measure, but balanced is the best way to describe it.
This gun takes a VERY specific play style and game knowledge to work properly. If you dropped this into a cadet's hans they will say it's trash
No matter how I load out the eruptor there's always a map spawn that'll fk me
With stalwart you mow down hunters but tons of chargers tax your airstrikes and EAT 17s
With flamethrower, you melt everything but need heavy airstrike or EATs for Bile Titans, the hunter swarms murder you, and you'd better hope you brought that EAT for shriekers
With Quasar the hunter swarms eat you alive
If you don't take shield gen pack you already know the tag team hunter headshots gonna fk you up
Just feels like your locked into 3/4 stratagems while you can get so much more versatility with Dominator, but boy is it fun
The explosion sucks enemies in (and you as well if you shoot something close) instead of pushing them away. Like it fires little singularities.
Eruptor is the perfect example of a primary done well, unique, good utility, great but with enough downsides to make it balanced
Why does no one ever mention the GL when it comes to a primary/ad clear gun? It's good at destroying "weak" spots and can get a lot of damage out in an area quickly. I've been running it with the Eruptor and I only need to worry about heavy units when there's more than a couple- but 500kgs tends to solve the issue. When I miss an enemy or two and they get close, the Redeemer does a solid enough job at dealing with them
imho it is brokenly OP, but thats fine because its a co-op game.
what isn't cool through is how we also get things like HMG and Adjudicator which straight-up suck,
either the devs should make everything fun and OP or lame and balanced, its just weird having both.
everyone has been having a blast with Eruptor, so i think that is the best way to go, buff the under-performers!
I think it is very balanced. I would say it feels more like a strategem though. If say you could drop in with a stalwart and this as a call in i would be cool with that
I 100% finished off a couple of wounded bile titans with the eruptor. Its not great to take them on alone but shooting them in the belly does explode their bile sack as well.
Yep yep. It does explode the belly. And yeah, I got a couple of full damage on joints, but was tough
Powerful shrapnel burst and high stagger force but with slow reloading speed, bad weapon handling and possibility of face-explosion.
Ngl I seriously doubt any gun they put in will top the current jar 5 dominator imo. I just enjoy using it in 5 and above missions. I have even soloed one of the base defense missions on hard or extreme (can't remember which level I went with) with the dominator, defender (auto pistol I think it's called that lol), quasar cannon, guard dog rover, orbital laser and eagle air strike. It's gonna take a lot for me to pick any gun over the dominator after that
Ok as support weapon but if you get swarmed il prefer the breaker spray and pray
Bout two hours ago I used a Dominator on a Hulk. Five shots to the face. I was like 😮
The Eruptor is a versatile weapon, can be meh with crowds and good with single/armoured targets. It’s good but not overpowered.
Quasar canon, incindiary breaker, grenade pistol, drone, 500 bomb, rail strike. nuff sed
I agree, I think it’s quite balanced. It takes a lot of skill to use effectively
It's about as strong as the Scorcher. Scorcher has splash and is easier to use but doesnt have medium armor pen. The eruptor is slow and cumbersome but packs a huge punch per bullet. I do think it is S-tier overall vs bots same as Scorcher.
I dont know but the explosion of this weapon has an inverted effect!
It is like a vacuum not a pushing force.
So i shoot a bunch of hunters and instead of blowing us all apart we get SUCKED INTO the center of the explosion.
Now you are prone ragdolling in a sea of hunters good luck!
ps: Some poor programmer added or forgot a - sign that is it...
Great video Myelin
I guess what I want is a gun that either blows up bases OR takes on heavies, but not both.
I feel like it doesn’t help that it’s the only primary that can do eiter
Edit: oh yeah right, dominator. Need to watch through vids before commenting more often
but the dominator doesnt deal with bases OR heavies?
It’s a popular game. This happens with every single popular game nowadays, you attract the meta chasers and anything that has OP in the title catches their attention, nuance be damned.
Welcome to modern gaming. It’s not going to stop as long as people keep clicking those videos. It’s like saying "stop putting a thumbnail of boobs or some dude with his mouth wide open!"
This is just reality now, sadly.
If you need a stalwarts as your weapon to pair with this, then you aren’t very good and you take on a lot of unnecessary fights. This weapon takes out crowds that can free you up and your secondary can help as the enemies get closer. Ijs…
Its pretty lackluster tbh. Yes its powerful, but thats all it has going for itself. If you get pinned down or swarmed, its over unless you have a fast firing weapon or the right stratagems. Even then you arent always saved
try using positioning and brain to avoid getting swarmed.

I'm sorry but they either need to change the Eruptor to be semi-automatic or move that charging handle behind the ejection port so it's an actual bolt action. it looks like the victim of lazy copy and paste on the model and animation team.
I respect your opinion on the gun, however you might not be using it properly, if you swap to your secondary before the reload you can switch back and do another shot right away increasing the shooting speed of the gun and making it significantly better.
I mean, that sounds great. But I dont know if that counts as "not using it properly". SOunds more like an exploit, that will get patched.
@@MoreMyelinGames quick swap reload tech its been in several games that honestly at this point I consider it more of a hidden feature. but well only time will tell.
I like the Eruptor, it's good.
But it's also the most sluggish, clunky primary I'm the game.
It doesn't hit like a truck. It hits like a zamboni.
Honestly, I don't care for it. I prefer the Dominator, or the Fire Breaker...
Almost every enemy is a rush down mob, and the delay and splash damage is too much to deal with.
its just the cringe clickbait youtubers . i cant stand these guys any longer + they leak everything whats still miles away and ruins the surprise . im realy done with those channels
