AR-11 Arbitrator (Realistic) v1.0.0

A Mod for Helldivers 2
AR-11 Arbitrator (Realistic) akl_mod_preview_image
My Realistic collection of weapons aims to rebalance Helldivers 2's weak weaponry into competitive choices with reasonable, mooostly realistic tweaks.

The original AR-11 Arbitrator has an outrageously low ergonomics value and a low ammo count despite caseless 4mm serving as a lighter weight alternative to 5.56mm. This mod fixes that.

- Damage increased from 70 to 80
- Magazine capacity increased from 45 to 50 rounds (matching real-life prototype G-11 magazine capacity)
- Ergonomics increased from 30 to 45
- Underbarrel shotgun capacity increased from 20 to 40 rounds
This aims to capitalize on its niche rather than simply giving it more rifle magazines or a faster reload.

It now holds a total combat load of 400 rifle rounds + 40 shotgun shells.

Made with great help from my friend Claude.

th thing about the underbarrel attachments is that you get more utillity in one weapon slot, the stocker has flames (frenzy effect, DOT, and armor pen), the one-two has the abillity to close spawns and AOE, but the underbarrel shotgun on the AR11 lacks said utillity, apart from the obvious medium pen shotgun, and maybe killing 1 or 2 enemies that get close to you while reloading. pls add to the mod stager force to the underbarrel shotgun, the same as the bushwacker secondary.

Does the extra 10 damage help with some kinda breakpoint? Why not touch damage falloff (drag?) instead? Blah blah blah.

honestly this is better balancing than ah by far, but just like the one two auto the reload times need the biggest buffs, if they had short mag reload speeds for just the auto rifle aspects of the weapon both would be more ideal to use.

great mod, im a nexus mod author for skyrim and starfield ,so i might have to start with hd2 too lol i just need to learn what to do

After playing with this for a while. Love it. Great. makes me not hate it, one thing, you forgot to include that extra magazine on ammo brick pickups from pods and regular ammo.
