Plasma Powerhouse 1.0.8

Cozy Panda's Plasma Powerhouse v1.0.8​

Five plasma weapons. Bigger magazines. More damage. More explosions. MORE DEMOCRACY!

Plasma Powerhouse significantly buffs five of Helldivers 2's plasma weapons, giving them substantially improved ammunition capacity, increased damage, stronger explosions, and additional functionality such as bug closing explosions, the Epoch no longer exploding and more bug hole destroying explosions!

This mod aims to make plasma weapons more powerful, enjoyable, and versatile without completely changing how they play.

All five weapons are upgraded in one convenient package!
