Greetings Helldivers!
Today I'm going talk about the direction of balance in game as well as addressing assault rifle specific balancing! We'll take a bird's eye view on the situation and where it might be heading towards. Then we'll take a step back to see how our assault rifles can be made more fun and impactful, as well as looking at some weapon concepts I came up with!
This is going to be a long one, so sit back, relax, and let's get it on!

![Is Ascendant Blaze STILL USABLE? | Patch #7 Update | Warhammer 40k: DARKTIDE
A blanket change to burn damage-over-time has unexpectedly hit one of the Psykers key abilities - Ascendant Blaze. Reduced damage against Flak means a neutered potency in the highest difficulties, but what can we do to least make it usable once again? We test that out in this video here.
