Holy crap.... I didnt know the Hulks had medium armor for their legs. That is life-changing information!
*Chuckles in DCS* You're in danger
Another thing to keep in mind. The max range of the laser cannon is 200m. So if you ping something and its under 200m you can take it out from a very safe distance.
Thanks for the tip!
Take for instance motar strikes that's 125m, other turrets are 75m (except canon), Shrieker spawns at 130m. Basically you want the sweet spot of 150m so nothing can spawn nor can u get hit by friendly fire to snipe things.
Damn
bro used his penis to measure out the distance for us
That works out great. I rarely see anything worth shooting at that far away. Either terrain, planet effects for reduced visibility, or not wanting to draw aggro.
New Gunships only need 2 secs from Laser Cannons. Brings it up to an A-Tier Support Weapon now IMO.
Right, guess I'm going with the laser cannon over the autocannon then for bot missions.
@@The_Mess85 Same, gonna take laser now that I realise I just lack patience
My no.1 piece of advice: learn to hipfire the Laser Cannon at every range. It's a perfectly steady beam, and the FPS zoom (while nice) is only really beneficial at longer ranges. This also offsets the fact the FPS view takes up half your screen too. The LC can clutch well in close combat because of its perfect hipfire accuracy, provided you keep an ear out for when it's going to overheat and keep your cool under pressure
I learned the same thing for the autocannon. It's just much easier to handle it in 3rd person. The scopes on AC, LC and Quasar are just awful.
Amazing video man. Its good to know this thing could be an alternative to the Autocannon since i want to use the shield generator 💀🙏
Autocannon is still my choice against Automatons.
I want to like it more, but I find it very inaccurate at times unless I’m prone.
I'm personally too addicted to having a backpack slot.
I agree but the shield is so good I’m trying to find an alternative
I usually bounce around between the Autocannons, AMR, and Railgun. All depends on mission type.
atm i prefer the quasar and railgun for bots but auto is awesome too
Glad you made this! I've been running the laser cannon against bots since they buffed it. It's a must have for me against them (unless it's a hot planet). I always bring the shield pack with it too.
I run the scorcher with it to deal with striders. Also the 500kg bomb and orbital rail cannon for flexibility in dealing with everything. Orbital rail is great for killing a tank or turret you can't get the right angle on. If I want better horde control or better fabricator destruction I swap out 500kg for Airstrike.
Apparently you can shoot the engine block of tanks with medium armor penetrating weapons, so that might be the better option for those snappy galvanized laser tanks, personally I use the jump pack and launch over tanks to get behind them and start blasting.
Love the video, love the laser cannon against bots, it's been my go-to ever since I used it and finally it's getting the appreciation it deserves.
As for my loadout I like to run:
-Scythe: More accurate than the laser cannon and deals with the fodder enemies that bit quicker, excellent sniping weapon and can give covering fire very well
-Redeemer: Covers berserkers and anything else that gets too close for comfort
-Impact grenades: Getting used to them but they deal with striders and groups very well
-Savior of the Free armor set: Democracy protects is plot armor and has made me invincible in a number of impossible situations
Stratagems
-Laser cannon: Deals with all automaton units due to medium armor penetration, excels at dealing with emplacements and tanks
-Jump Pack: Increased movement, can get you out of bad spots, jump over tanks, get to high spots for good vantage, fun
-Walking Barrage: Bombards in increments, great for advancements into bases and other objectives and can destroy detection towers, great orbital for taking AA emplacements
-Eagle Airstrike: The versatile strat that you can't fault, deals with everything, clears fabricators/patrols/objectives and elite units
These are excellent helldivers vids man. Loving the content
Great video. Going to try the laser cannon tonight
Im a laser cannon main myself, and i actually learned a few tips from you, thank you!
can you say your build please?
Just a note “real tank” is called Annihilator Tank and the “laser tank” is Shredder Tank. Keep up the great content, G.
Glad to see this monster of a weapon getting the recognition it deserves (post patch) also don't be deterred when choosing it against bugs, I run it with the jumppack on 7, 8 and sometimes 9 and it is still fantastic, shreds hive guard through their armour, brood commanders only a few seconds, can kill a charger in 4-8 seconds when concentrating on its rear (works amazing with stun grenades) can struggle with hunters up close so recommend pairing with your small bug killer of choice (sickle for me) oh and can kill Bile titans when their armour is exposed
100% Sickle + Laser Cannon is my main combo for bugs 👍 i love the up time you can achieve by always swapping between them
@@blueshell4859 exactly, you can maintain a near constant stream of fire it's awesome
Another thing to point out about the tanks. Use the laser to take out the treads. It wont be able to move after that and you can just leave it behind.
They should add a firing mode that increases the lasers speed at the cost of taking the battery faster, that’ll be awesome
your smile at 6:50 after disabling the hulks leg is precious 😂😂
been really good but now my beloved arc thrower is back
The scorcher 2 taps striders.
Sure does and pairs well with the Laser Cannon that can reach across the map and can be used infinitely if managed properly. Especially on the current planet that is cold environment.
1 taps striders if you hit high enough for the small explosion radius to hit the driver
this was helpful, thank you
Dude. Found you during D4 content, amazing btw, but now that you're doing the work of SUPER URF -- 👌 👍 keep up the great work 👍
"But they are no where near as cool as that turtle."
lol That got me good!
Can’t wait for your vid on the Quasar
LOL robot peg-leg hulk...I gotta try this out!
Maybe one day we'll have that kind of power.
...One day later.
QUASAR
Laser cannon > quasar for bots
@@jamesmckissock15 The biggest advantage of the quasar cannon for bots is the ability to take down dropships and to destroy fabricators. The laser cannon seems to be a better all-rounder, not having to deal the charge time and the big cooldown time between each shot
>devs make it so that killing the dropship usually doesnt kill anything
perfectly balanced
@@hiramesensei3112"big cooldown time" 😂😂😂 are you kidding? 8 seconds (with no reload animation) is a long time to you?
Laser cannon needs its cooldown rate to match the Quasar; IDK why quasar cooldown is so short.
Thank god for this video
And they just released the Quasar Cannon, which can kill dropships if you aim for the thrusters. It's so good, hope you review it soon!
Great video Reaper, whole lot of reasons to use the laser cannon. Highlight peg-leggin a Hulk ☠
I want to love the laser cannon. The thing this video is really showing me, though, is that positioning is more important. All these shots are against glued-to-the-floor enemies where almost any gun can hit head shots. This video has been illuminating and instructive, but I would like a little more to be convinced.
Laser cannon is the best for automatons...if your aim is dope.
Everytime I use LC during robot runs I feel like I'm just tickling them, so it seems I gotta work on my headshot aim lol
Great video as always man!
I love the “in character” comments like “teamwork makes the free work” and the riff about turtles being a freedom loving creature lol
I run the shield, laser cannon, and my personal fav Plas-1 Scorcher - The scorcher eviscerates the striders and most of the other enemies the cannon might struggle with.
my new fun build is LC with Plaz Shotty, incendiary grenades, rover, and AC sentry. it puts in work at every level vs every enemy and ammo is so much less an issue
Eagle airstrike for fabricators, orbital laser for command bunkers, detector towers and anything really. Shield relay for time to line up shots on hulk faces and also it's just superior to the personal shield in every way. Laser cannon, for everything, but especially for gunships, better than almost everything else at it.
Running EATs into bots to deliver sweet competence to rocket devastators is the best flavor of justice. Being able to shoot down 2 consecutive drop ships is also a major selling point. If there’s stratagem fuckery in the mission/environment modifiers, laser or auto cannon are also certified bangers.
great video! please try spray and pray with laser canon vs automatons and terminids video! TIA
I started using this gun last night on a snow planet and its so good into bots!!
I remember when the laser cannon would take out a flying dropship in about 2 seconds to the engines, which was a major reason why I switched to it from the quazar cannon. Ironically enough, the quazar cannon can still get rid of dropships very effectively, but the laser cannon cant. I still use it though after I discovered everything else it can do just by bringing it to missions. Oddly enough, it can still take out the gunships that shoot you during certain side objectives, but not the dropships🤔
If you shoot the tracks of the tanks you can immobilize them and make it easier to flank them. Additionally if you hit the legs of the devastators they'll die once both legs are down.
I never knew you could blow the Hulks legs off!!!
This cannon is good for shrieker nests too if you don’t want to go closer 😀
@12:00 Yess maybe one day...like now!!! With the new Quaser LASER cannon. Takes out fabricators, drop ships, everything.
But also has a horrible lead up time and a single tremor can throw the entire shot away. (And I love the Quasar Canon, it's just these do very different things).
I've been using the javelin recently, forgot the in game name. This smashes those turrets, fabricators , and motars from far far away. This opens up my eagle slot to have much more anti army since I can destroy heavy bases solo from afar now.
So the Spear can lock onto the Cannon Towers? Everytime I tried the lock on doesn’t even start so I thought it wasn’t possible
@@cannibalraptorIt's buggy, there's specific spots. They need to fix it but it's a one shot.
Amazing video mate ,I recently unlocked the laser cannon and I love it ,but I really thought I can deal with the drop ships with it 😂 but anyway it is very powerful weapon to spread that democracy 🔫🔫🔫
I dont know about the cannon tank, but you can shoot the laster tank in the rear of the main body to take it down.
Edit: looking at the cannon tank, i think you can shoot the rear part of its main body too.
I think you can shoot the barrels of the quad laser tank with laser cannon and it will deal damage. Course you're staring down the barrels to do that.
WE NEED A LASER CANNON SENTRY
can you make a loadout for the automatons like you did with the terminids
Laser cannon is cool but I prefer using the GL. While it cant really deal with Hulks, its great against everything else
Most slept on support weapon and in my opinion probably the overall best one. I dont think anythings quite as versatile, it really can handle anything you run into. Im loving the quasar cannon but the wind up time makes it shit against rocket devastators or even shield devastators. Laser melts their face instantly.
Great content tho
I have to admit i like the quasar but i just really love the laser cannon
WELL DONE HELLDIVER
Holy fuck this video is a saving grace
Anti material rifle is a two hit kill on any of the larger bits of you hit the red spot on the head. Including the hulk. Also you can hit them from so far away they never get close enough to shoot you.
Striders and bersekers seem to be the lite counter to the laser cannon, luckily the scorcher trivializes the striders and the shotguns can deal with the berserkers.
Can the laser cannon take out jammer or shrieker next?
Been lazer cannon exclusively for a while now. now. Use sheild 500kg and air strike with it usually.
Laser Cannon superiority!
For all the stuff up to like devastators I run the laser rifle thing basically for the same reason, that pinpoint accuracy is too good to pass up
I still prefer the railgun for the heavies. Charge, headshot, reload, repeat.
Me:
How about I take laser cannon on automatons.
Get owned by everything
Well, I guess laser cannon is not for automatons...
Next day:
THE LASER CANNON IS THE BEST SUPPORT WEAPON TO MELT THE AUTOMATONS
how the f people do that?
its all about weak spots hit the heads and visors and it melts them when it works feels great when it doesnt it feels trash
Laser cannon is legitimately awesome against bots... not sure what else to say. Practice with it more and get good at ADS aiming with it.
It's maybe the best support against bots. Takes down hulks in like 2 seconds if you keep it on the eye. Kills tanks and cannon turrets from behind. Can melt mortars from far away, don't need to hit the vents just cook the barrel. Aim for the faces on devastators takes like 2 seconds. I don't think there's a more versatile support.
It's fuckin garbage my boy. Being in a video doesn't always mean it's true. Playing on the highest levels I'd rather chew nails. In those situations where you have hordes on your ass this gun hits like a toothpick and will get your swarmed.
When I first used it, I didn’t play cover well and struggled but when I realised what I was doing, it became my main weapon for the bots. Love it.
The new quasar cannon just came out and it’s probably the superior option to the laser canon in every way besides horde clearing potential
Quasar is definitely awesome but I do find myself missing the laser cannon when I run into the shield devastators.
@@emufarm29 the quasar cannon has been able to one shot the shield devastators about 85 percent of the time for me but it’s ability to shut down bug holes, bot buildings, and bot drop ships in one shot if placed properly and I’ve had it one shot hulks constantly if near the head or just near center mass on its front side makes it one of the best options for solo play due to it not needed a backpack to use and being able to fire about every 6-8 seconds depending on the planets temperature tho I haven’t tested these numbers thoroughly
@@landonnorris2831 yeah it is really good. Being able to destroy outposts and hit dropships is a definite advantage over the laser but I did get wrecked by a rocket devastator earlier waiting for it to charge up, when the laser would've had it smoking on the ground already. I'll have to try it a bit more with the shield guys, I keep hitting em right in the shield and it just knocks em back a second. I do like it a lot though.
the voice has the bass to tickle some gibblets XD
Just because Autocannon can blow up facts i will still hold onto that, but i am very happy to see that this isn't a glorified lazer pointer anymorr
Great narrator voice. You should be doing voice over work man.
Now we got new guns!
is it just me or does the laser cannon seem like it ramps up damage the longer you hit a target, like the automatons face heats up but if you stop firing you have to reheat it some, if that makes any sense.
IMMA FIRIN MAH' LAZER!
Will it take out fabricators
I noticed that almost all of your examples were on ice planets. You still recommend it on hot worlds?
The description of hot and cold planets is wrong, the heat buildup is the same on any planet hot or cold, the things that is changed is how fast the gun cools down so even in hot planets u can ahoot as much as on cold planets but after u stop shooting ur gonna need to wait more for the gun to cool down on hot planets and less on cold ones
EATs trivializes drops 🤘🏽
The beam of the laser is too bright for me to hit the shield guys, how do I fix that?
While i do agree with people loving the auto cannon, its more of your personal tastes as many dont like it because of the backpack slot being taken up(dispite being a massive ammo pack for it)
and.. what about the gunships?
Does anyone know exactly what the spinny things represent on all the laser weapons?
Players who still hate the laser cannon:
"Perhaps I treated you too harshly..."
*quasar has entered the chat*
Ahhh very bad timing of releasing this video - i thought it is about LAS-99 new Quasar Laser Cannon that was given to us today.
Any suggestions for people who use controllers to pin point aim
Crouching will always be a huge help for accuracy, but best bet is to aim with first person view. The sight is jarring at first, but once you get use to it you'll be melting them in no time. Beyond that practice with 3rd or first person in lower difficulties to get a feel for all the enemies can be a huge help, until they hopefully add in a shooting range to practice in.
@@ragingreaper1190 Thanks so much for the speedy reply, I will continue to practice. I appreciate your vids.
Quasar Cannon
Also remember everyone, no need to go and play on difficulty 8/9
Difficulty 7 and below is just fine. We didn’t get any higher percentage for liberation.
I did not like the laser cannon vs the automatons, but lets see what he says.
I just blast hulks in the face with the recoiless
I have been using this as my alt sickle las cannon jumppack grenade pistol impacts or high explosives last 2 strats either big boys or herds armor your choice speed or tank have fun with the future soldier build might as well grab an orb laser too 500 kg like you know you want to 😂😂
YOU CAN DESTROY THE LEGS OF THE HULK??????
You can blow the legs off a Hulk??!
taking down dropships doesn't even do anything. At best you get a few enemies bugged, floating in the air unable to move. But nothing dies, they still land and continue like nothing happened
Aiming for the belly of the drop ship before the bots drop will take the bots out.
the more easier to destroy automatons just laser their leg its insant die
Take a shot every time "Is that of the" is said regardless of context (don't actually do this you will die)
My aim sucks
FRUSTRATED By flamethrower hulks??
no worries
use "DIVE" button, to avoid it's fire
it safes me EVERY SINGLE TIME!
I did that as a last resort yesterday and it actually worked, gonna try it in different scenarios to see if it’s 100% viable today
i prefer the quasar/shield backpack combo over the autocannon. i dont like wasting my shield slot.
And I don't like wasting my orbital/eagle slot on a backpack xD
For some reason simply searching Helldivers 2 doesn't bring up any of your videos.
That's treason against DEMOCRACY.
I think I’m first to comment 😅
You sure do have an odd way is pronouncing “Autocannon”. 😅
Agree. Laser is fine but autocannon is just superior.
@@TrixyTrixter Until it gets destroyed.
@@jamesbrice3267 Autocannon is a support weapon it does not get destroyed.
No its not. Autocannon is MUCH better.
Autocannon doesn't have infinite ammo and wastes your backpack slot. It's not better, they are just different.
it's 99% garbage
I talk to thousands of americans monthly as part of my work.....why cant you just talk normally?
That sounds like a terrible job and maybe I'm just not normal paul.
I can't. The way you talk hurts.
Laser cannon is my boo
