📋 About This Mod
Coming in (heh) with another release, a big, explod-ey boy well beloved by Helldivers, the R-36 Eruptor comes its successor, a meaner gruffer mean, green hammering machine, the XR-70 Fragmenter, for when you want everything, everywhere all at once.
Obligatory: Barrel spins when cocking

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 138 endorsements and over 8,300 downloads.
- Gives the Eruptor a more intimidating look that fits the 'big gun' fantasy.

⚠️ Cons

For Helldivers 2 players who love the Eruptor but want a beefier, more menacing appearance. If you're into visual overhauls and don't mind a purely cosmetic change, this is for you. Skip if you're looking for gameplay modifications or if you prefer the original look.
