M90A Shotgun Armor Penetration LIGHT -> MEDIUM 1.0

A Mod for Helldivers 2
M90A Shotgun Armor Penetration LIGHT -> MEDIUM akl_mod_preview_image
This mod upgrades the M90A Shotgun’s armor penetration from Light to Medium, with the goal of making it both a little more faithful to its Halo counterpart and a more practical weapon in Helldivers 2’s current ecosystem.

In Halo, the M90A is depicted as firing massive 8-gauge shotgun shells, so giving it only Light Penetration felt a little underwhelming for a weapon with that kind of reputation. Medium Penetration helps sell the idea that this is an exceptionally powerful combat shotgun while also giving it a more useful niche against armored enemies.

Much like our VG-70 penetration tweak, this mod was built using “Produced by the Ministry of Defence – Bolt Pistol Rounds for the JAR-5 Dominator” as a base/reference, with the relevant values adapted for the M90A.

Requirements:

  • Bingus’ Mod Loader v16 or newer
  • Make sure the loader is installed and configured correctly with your mod setup.
The intention is not to completely rebalance or redesign the M90A—just to give it the penetration you would expect from an 8-gauge Halo shotgun and make it more competitive with the other weapons available.

Heavy pen M90A is Super simple to do since SillyBatman did all the hard work, unzip the mod, open the 9ba626afa44a3aa3.patch_0 file, change line 37
from this : "local AP_MEDIUM = {3, 3, 3, 0}"
to this : "local AP_MEDIUM = {4, 4, 4, 0}"
Save and replace the file in the zip, delete the mod in the manager, purge, add the mod back, deploy. Enjoy!
thanks but it does not workTAT
