Overview
Daniel purchased 1,000 super credits for £8 to unlock the Steeled Veterans premium war bond and test the Liberator Explosive rifle.
Testing in combat demonstrated that the Liberator Explosive performed poorly, requiring over a full magazine to kill a Stalker, displaying no noticeable explosive effect, and deflecting off heavier armor, prompting Daniel to regret the purchase and switch back to the Breaker shotgun.
The Breaker shotgun significantly outperformed the Liberator Explosive in damage per shot and per magazine, while future unlock plans were set for the P4 Senator, Dominator shotgun, or Breaker incendiary from the war bond.
