Is the LAS-5 Scythe a Good Choice?
Despite the allure of a laser weapon, the LAS-5 Scythe fails to live up to expectations in Helldivers 2. The weapon's damage output falls short compared to other primary weapons in the game. While it can be useful for lighter tasks, relying heavily on the LAS-5 Scythe can put your team at a disadvantage, especially if there are no heavy-damage dealers present.
While LAS-5 Scythe has some utility in specific situations, players are advised to invest in alternative options such as the Laser Cannon or the Guard Dog Rover for more effective laser-based combat. Ultimately, the decision to acquire and use the LAS-5 Scythe will depend on personal preference and playstyle, but it is important to weigh its limitations against other available weapons in Helldivers 2.
