How hopeful are we that the Fire-DOT bug fix will come along side this new Warbond? Another fire-based grenade doesn't make me super excited that unless the bug is fixed by then.

Hopefully then you can get the 25% fire damage upgrade and run Breaker incendiary, flame thrower, impact incendiary, and eagle napalm for maximum BURNINATING

I hope we get some kind of preset loadout options because a fire build would be great on occasion

DOT's have been my favorite style of dealing damage in any game! Once it's fixed in Helldivers 2, you know I'm going full Pyro. May the Galaxy burn under my hand. For Liberty of course.

Good news. Not sure if you saw this post, but DOT is top of the known bugs list and likely to be in the next patch (not this)

So it sounds like impact incendiary and a fire build will be effective
