About this mod Author’s original text
Helldivers Beam Guns (LAS-5, LAS-7, and LAS-98)
The most exotic class of weaponry in the SEAF arsenal are the beam weapons. Harnessing internal energy sources to project a focused beam of energy, they utilize cooling elements to keep projecting damage downrange. While this allows for theoretically infinite ammunition, it also means that the weapons need to cool down after use or the heatinks will burn out. They come in all form factors, namely the diminuitive LAS-7 Dagger, the general-purpose LAS-5 Scythe, and the potent LAS-98 Laser Cannon.
Features
- LAS-7 Dagger (laser pistol! Found under exotic weapons)
- LAS-5 Scythe (laser rifle!)
- LAS-98 Laser Cannon (laser... cannon?)
- Replacable heatsinks for each weapon

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
