The FLAM-66 TORCHER： Testing the only INCENDIARY SPECIAL WEAPON in Helldivers 2 (INSANE DAMAGE)

Hello, welcome back to a new video. So

today we're going to be testing out the

brand new special weapon, the very first

new special weapon in Helldivers 2, the

Flamme 66 Torture, which is like

a flamethrower but for your primary weapon

in the brand new Warbond Freedom's Flame.

So it's on the second page and only costs

about 40-something medals. You don't need

too many medals, just a couple hundred

before you get access to it, and it's

pretty damn cool. So as you can see, it is

the very first and the very only special

type primary weapon, and it has 250

damage, 80 capacity, 3 recoil.

It does medium armor penetrating and it's

incendiary, so it sounds pretty damn good.

You can take care of Chargers and medium

armored enemies with it, and I don't know,

it should be as good as the flamethrower,

the Stratagem support weapon. So if you

want to run using 2 flame weapons, you

can. You can have the Flame 66 Torture and

also the Strastrom support weapon, the

Flamethrower. So I'm gonna guess it's

gonna be kind of like the Arc Blitzer

because this also does medium armor

penetrating and does about 250 damage,

but it's going to be fire-based instead.

So let's go down to a planet and give it a

test. Okay, gonna land on the planet and

we're going up against the Terminids. See

if this is any good. So it looks pretty

cool, and you got pretty rubbish aim down

the sights experience. Okay, let's shoot

it out. Um, it works pretty much

like the stratagem support flamethrower.

I don't know why they added a second

flamethrower that basically does the same

thing as the other one. For some reason

it's not giving me any allies or

team members, so I'm gonna have to do it

all by— oh, it's Out of ammo. Yeah, I

don't know if it's better or worse. I

guess it should be worse than the

Strassgrim Support Flamer because it's

easier to get, don't have to call it down.

It seems pretty good, I guess.

It's got medium armor penetration.

I think I set myself on fire. That's a

good thing about this new armor set.

That's why they got all these new armor

sets where You take 75% less fire damage

because you're gonna keep setting yourself

on fire. Oh crap, now I'm

screwed.

Oh, I accidentally pressed my stratagem

menu button. Yeah, it seems okay for crowd

control if you can keep them back without

setting yourself on fire. I should have

landed on the Brood Commander. Okay, just

scorch these. Brood Commander has

medium armor but gets scorched.

That one took a lot of damage. I can't get

the SOS Bacon. Come on, it reloads so

slowly. Like, oh my God. And then you get

surrounded and you don't have any stagger

ability, so you get surrounded, you easily

get overwhelmed. If you had a shotgun,

you could have pushed them back.

Sometimes the game bugs and it doesn't

find you team

members to join your squadron. Look, I was

flaming that guy for ages and he didn't

die. It's not very good, to be honest.

The damage is okay, but it has no crowd

control ability. You get swarmed.

Look at this.

Hey, look at that. It shouldn't have taken

such a long time, but you just end up

getting swarmed like this. It's pretty

and it just doesn't take people down. I

mean, doesn't take the enemies down quick

enough before they're on you.

I'm gonna have to cluster bomb those,

there's too many.

What have I got? Rocket pods,

orbital laser. Ah, just got it out.

There's too many of them. Oh, I nearly got

it. Did I land on it? I think I did.

Oh my God, where is it coming from?

I'm trying my best to take them down, but

it's just not doing a great job

at it, and then it runs out of ammo pretty

quickly.

It's just not great, is it?

Yeah, mission failed because stupid game

bugged and didn't give me any squad

members. Why does that happen?

Okay, next let's test it out against the

Automatons, although it's supposed to be

really a Terminid weapon because usually

Automatons you fight them from range

because they have guns too, so I don't see

how A flamethrower is going to be very

useful against ranged enemies unless

you're fighting the Berserker chainsaw

robots. Let's just do

ICBM. Okay,

dropping into Automaton mission.

I think it's going to be rubbish.

I don't know if it's going to give me any

members. Look at the— oh yeah, as if it's

gonna do anything against Hulk

Devastators. Just run away.

Might have gotten them. Oh, I got them

both. 500 kg bone,

and then— see, it's rubbish.

Heal.

Eh, it's not bad against these ones, I

guess.

Insane damage. Wow,

they're still not dead.

Still not dead. What? It's still not dead.

Oh my God, he's got a flamethrower too.

And I'm out of stims.

And I'm dead. Great. What a great

weapon.

Is that a nuke?

Isn't that gonna nuke myself?

Yep, that's not good.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend this weapon for

automatons.

It's just good for Terminids. Look,

it just takes too long.

You can't kill it before it gets to you.

I think it should slow them down a little

bit at least. Whoa, look at this thing!

Oh my god, it's got like a bazillion

rocket tubes.

Look how many tubes it's got on it.

Look at that thing, so funny.

Can you flame it?

Nope.

Look at this stupid thing,

looks so funny.

None of those flames hit them.

It's pretty good against— I ran out of

ammo.

I'm dead.

Why am I climbing up here? Can't even

reload his gun. Yep,
