Helldivers 2 Devs to Overhaul Fire Damage System

Arrowhead Game Studios acknowledges the current fire damage mechanics are excessively lethal and commits to phased improvements.

Fire damage in Helldivers 2, described as 'ridiculous' by developers, is set for a comprehensive overhaul.
Recent updates have increased fire damage, leading to player complaints about its instant lethality.
Developers plan to adjust damage per second (DPS) and damage over time (DOT), among other elements.
The fixes will be implemented in stages, with no specific timeline provided for completion.
Community feedback has been instrumental in prompting these changes, with ongoing discussions in the Helldivers 2 Discord channel.
