⚖️ Balancing

General

The Ministry of Humanity has issued an amendment to its Combat Mobility Safety Guidelines, now permitting Helldivers to self-administer stims while in mid-dive, an act previously categorized in the same risk zone as “running with scissors” and “juggling live grenades”

Primary weapons

R-2 Amendment

• Increased ergonomics from 35 to 50

Sidearms

P-2 Peacemaker

• Increased starting magazines from 4 to 5
• Increased max spare magazines from 6 to 8
• Increased damage from 75 to 85
• Increased durable damage from 15 to 25

Armor Passives

Integrated Explosives

• Now also increases initial inventory and holding capacity of grenades by +2

Unflinching

This passive has been adjusted to better reflect the core doctrine of the Truth Enforcers Warbond—relentless pursuit, battlefield awareness, and overwhelming presence

• Now also increases armor rating by 25
• Markers placed on the map will generate a radar scan every 2.0s, revealing nearby hostiles

Enemies

General

Stealth Detection Update:

Enemies will no longer automatically detect you when you're near Terminid spawners or spawners that generate flying enemies. Instead, these spawners will now only activate if an enemy has already identified you as a target.

• Previously, simply being within 200 meters of certain spawner types—such as flying enemy spawners, Stalker lairs, or inside Terminid locations—would trigger immediate enemy spawns and reveal your location. This update shifts detection to a more logical, line-of-sight or alert-based system, reducing arbitrary auto-detection mechanics and improving stealth gameplay

As a result of these changes, Automaton Fabricators now spawn enemies more consistently, ensuring smoother pacing and engagement balance

Objectives

Take Down Overship

• The Planetary Defense Cannon now causes an appropriate amount of damage when shooting at Leviathans

Illuminate

Harvester

• Their health has been rebalanced to make them easier to destroy using anti-tank weapons, particularly when aiming at their head

Overseers

• Reduced the frequency of Elevated Overseers spawning during Prevent Invasion Foothold missions
• Overseers can now occasionally spawn from landed dropships at outposts, adding variety to their battlefield presence

Leviathan

• Projectile damage was reduced from 1500 to 350. The intent is to ensure Helldivers are still eliminated on direct impact, while preventing instant destruction of Exosuits and FRVs
• Explosion damage and radius from turret shots have been increased to maintain lethality through area denial

Automatons

Factory Strider

• Slightly increased the health of its feet. It should no longer be destroyed by a single GR-8 Recoilless Rifle shot to the legs
