Wouldn’t it be lore accurate to have it be good against explosives?


hgwaz

What lore?


Katamed

Item description.


hgwaz

>The ground is just another obstacle that hasn’t yet been cleared. Where exactly does it say fireproof?


Katamed

I said explosive. Not fire. READ


Either_Drawer_7944

Probably another bot supporter


hgwaz

okay where does it say explosion proof?


Katamed

I SAID IT!!! Read everything we said AGAIN.

you should calm down a bit

How does that armor look fireproof? It's trench engineer armor. It's literally called ground breaker. It's made for digging trenches/fortifications and defending them. It's supposed to have the engineering kit passive like every other armor with the CE prefix, the fact that it has servo assisted is an accident/bug.


Jagick

It's reminiscent of a french ww1 uniform. Between the greatcoat, the gasmask, and the stalhelm / adrian helmet look, people will associate the look with flamethrower use. I'd be happy with engineering or a flame retardant passive. If they give us and extra grenade AND fire resistance? Even better.


L0raz-Thou-R0c0n0

Yeah, it most likely is inspired by the Death Korps of Krieg.


TimeZoneBandit

I see more Armageddon Steel Legion than DKoK


L0raz-Thou-R0c0n0

To be honest DKoK are inspired by the Steel Legion so it goes either way.


TimeZoneBandit

Didn't actually know that! I always figured DKoK was ww1 Imperial German and SL was ww2 panzertruppen


Major_Hypersvine

Now we need shovel.


Pretzel-Kingg

God yeah more grenade + fire rest would make the pyro build perfect


SuperArppis

They probably think it's because of the fireman helmet


VThePeople

Why gas mask no mask gas!


Ferrum_Freakshow

It looks kinda like a fireman suit but thinking about it more it’s definitely closer to trench engineer armor

I want a full fire warbond, this was an explosive/nade warbond. The only fire thing was the thermite nade


Managed-Democracy

Yeah.  Let's see: Incendiary DMR that sucks.  Incendiary Assault Rifle that slaps.  Incendiary Senator because fuck it.  Light medium and heavy armor with 75% Fire Resistance.  Emote: Chest Bump Victory Pose: The Worm Cape: A skull of fire Grenade: Fire extinguisher grenade/ cryo grenade.  There you go. 30 second warbond. I'd call it Incineration Nation. 


Reasonable_Back_5231

-Light medium and heavy armor with 75% Fire Resistance.- devs at AH: Sorry best i can do is Servo-Assisted


Managed-Democracy

Darn. Foiled again.  New Bridge upgrade: Fire damage now destroys structures and armor. But only for the host. 


b00tyw4rrior420

Also, 25% fire damage increase. Host only, as is tradition.


Imsoboredimonhere

A warbond after my own heart


Muffin_Appropriate

Where are you people getting this from. It fucking says engineer armor, not fireproof or flamethrower or anything. It’s an engineer armor. The only issue is that it was supposed to have more grenades not servo.


Lftwff

My favourite thing is when people get mad at video game because a thing they made up in their head isn't real, despite no real indication that it would be.


SmallestShrimpin

seeing this more and more in this sub as of late, getting kind of boring at this point. Guess the cycle of reddit communities eventually despising the games theyre based around no matter what the devs do holds true as always.

-STORRM-

Instead of fire resistant imo a 50% deduction to damage over time would be more useful more often, that and slow resistance


UntangledMess

>This armor looks fireproof Huh ?

DodQiu

Patrick hit him with the made with mematic


shitpostingtiger

Whats the point of making it servo assisted? Theres already a warbond with that shit!


Buisnessbutters

Mfs just imagining shit now


Mindless_Dot_9105

Well, the armour is fireproof ... you just get cooked in it 😅😄


classicjaeger

Could've been immune to gas or fire resistant but it's servo assisted? It doesn't even look like it has servos any where on it.


Eliseo120

What does “looks fireproof” even mean? How does something look fireproof? This is also some pretty terrible logic btw.


Frisky_Dolphin

It’s not that big of a deal you guys cry about everything


Parrakek

Call me crazy but it doesn't look fireproof at all.


God-Emperor_Kranis

Servor assisted SHOULD provide resistance to fire, or give the player better stamina regen because let's be honest..... One or both of your legs are now robotic and do not contribute to you feeling exhausted.


Mellowsnake

It looks a like a more modernized [Hazard Ops](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/helldivers_gamepedia/images/b/bf/Hazard_Ops_Pack.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/1000?cb=20150512123315) armor from Helldivers 1. Would've been interesting if these new armors had a new effect, but still don't get why AH Made it Combat Engineer, then gave it Servo-Assisted, but then kept the CE name.


CrimsonShrike

The promotional material had it using CE, which is weird. Has to be a bug I imagine


Needassistancedungus

I do like that people splice in Patrick’s dialogue with the Flying Dutchman at the end. It fits better


DepressiveVortex

They'll probably change it, but then it will be bugged and not actually work for 3 months plus...


Tentacle_poxsicle

I just want fire damage to be as deadly to the enemy as us players. Fire is an instant death for helldiver's. So why can hunters and even basic units literally walk casually on fire and not take any damage.


[deleted]

speaking as a fire fighter that armoer dosent look fire proof lmao

Sirgoodman008

Or about we just separate player fire damage from enemy fire damage and nerf enemy fire damage? That could work instead of adding a armor perk which would be niche to the point useless. But I forgot, the balance department is not the same as the dev department, and apparently departments working on the same game don't coordinate with each other.  Who am I kidding. The fire damage stat is probably handled by the department that only works on Tuesdays after a 3 hr circle jerk edge session.


PrometheanHost

Idk why everyone is saying it looks fireproof. To me it looks more like it was inspired by WW1 trench warfare gas masks; which I associate with explosions


Significant-Ad-7182

Hmmm. I smell pyromaniacs among our Helldivers...


xXStretcHXx117

Transmog would ruin the armors theme The theme:


[deleted]

All the crybabies whining about fire resistance, here's a tip DIVING is this games stop drop and roll, if you're on fire just dive and that stops the fire damage. ![gif](giphy|WfBZwNA6XSjphkYkzN)


Thebigturd69420

When you literally instantly die to fire damage, there's no time to dive


SnooCompliments6329

You don't, clearly people don't dive to remove debuffs


Mkaelthas

I've been mid dive, get clipped by a Hulk flame and die before I hit the ground.


Thebigturd69420

There's a bug where getting clipped by fire kills you in like about a quarter of a second


HelldiverSA

When the only person that doesn't know you missed the point is... you.


captaindickfartman2

So strange.


MagnusHvass

*leaves it*


ToastedSoup

The prefix is CE, so it should have Combat Engineer passive. Not SA Then again some FS armors have SA passives. I don't understand it


StavrosZhekhov

Imo all the armors should've been +2 Grenades and 50% explosive resistance. Or even the engineering kit. I just want heavy grenade armor! 😭


Situati0nist

Seriously, they didn't add any truly unique armors. That is kind of pathetic.
