Hello

I have been playing helldivers 2 since shortly after launch, but have not really bought many war bonds due to a lack of funding.

I have almost saved up enough super earth credits to buy one, and I was going to buy one with cash as well.

Which 2 would you guys recommend?

I play a lot of solo, but have been grouping with randos recently to play the higher difficulties and to get the pink samples.

Yup I've been running the grenade pistol since that one dropped, its such a great side arm.

I saw someone with a laser pistol as a side arm the other day (I think?) which seems kind of cool, I run the Scythe cause I hate managing my ammo, but if I had an unlimited side arm I think it might open up new options.

The dagger's (laser pistol) alright, it's not very high damage but it can set stuff on fire I think.

If you want unlimited sidearm, the talon's amazing for that, in the borderline justice warbond. You can almost use it as a primary weapon.

For higher difficulties, I usually roll with ultimatum. It's nice having a pocket orbital strike for when big stuff gets in your way.
