B Helldivers 2 They are preparing a new premium set for players who prefer to open battle from a long distance. Scope of Authority will be released on October 20th and will add sniper rifles, compact weapons, enemy control and protective equipment.Instead of the usual heavy assault Arrowhead offers careful positioning and accurate shots.

Two new long-range rifles

The set includes R-40 Sightliner, a bolt-action rifle with armor-piercing cartridges.It is designed for powerful, accurate shots and good range.For those who require a large-caliber weapon against particularly heavy targets, it is intended AMW-20 Apex, a huge anti-material rifle with ammunition supplied from a backpack and the help of a partner when reloading.

Presented as a backup weapon P-44 Mist, one-handed submachine gun.It will come in handy when the enemy comes too close and there is no time left to prepare a shot for a long time.

LAS-44 Nova and G-11 Caltrops decoys

Energy LAS-44 Nova releases a precise heat charge with just a little preparation.The authors promise an endless supply of ammunition, similar to the principle of other laser weapons, but this does not eliminate the need to monitor heating and breaks between attacks.

Throwing device G-11 Caltrops scatters small charges on the ground that go off when an enemy approaches.They slow and stun targets, allowing the squad to hold a corridor or defend a sniper's position.

New armor gives you an advantage in cover

Light kit SS-33 Mimetic Marshal resembles camouflage clothing for snipers.Medium armor SS-15 Focal Point uses similar means of camouflage, but looks more technologically advanced.Both options have a passive ability Stationary Shroud, which reduces weapon swing and detection distance while the fighter is crouched or lying down.

The difference between sets is related to the armor categories, and not to the presence of a unique passive in one of them.The set also includes capes, player cards, the Manual Ballistic Projection emote, and the Longshot title.

You will be able to compare the characteristics of sniper rifles in difficult missions after October 20th.From the characteristics of the announcement, one can assess the role of items, but one cannot in advance call the R-40 or AMW-20 the strongest weapons in the game.
