The BR-14 Adjudicator is an Assault Rifle utilized in Helldivers 2.
It is unlocked on the first page of Warbond: Democratic Detonation at the cost of 20 medals.
Role:[ | ]
This BR-14 Adjudicator fills the middle ground between the AR-23 Liberator assault rifle and the current line of marksman rifles such as the R-63 Diligence. It boasts high accuracy and a decent fire rate. Despite this, its high recoil may inhibit accuracy under fully automatic firing. Due to its low ammo capacity, it is less effective against large groups. However, its ability to penetrate medium armor can be used to kill Devastators and Scout Striders with relative ease when compared with many other weapons. The BR-14 Adjudicator is overall an effective weapon choice, especially against the Automatons.
Trivia:[ | ]
- When originally released, the BR-14 Adjudicator was listed as a Marksman Rifle despite its official marketing referring to this weapon as an Assault Rifle. In patch 0.1.000.300 the designation was changed from Marksman Rifle to Assault Rifle.
- The BR-14 Adjudicator bears a distinct resemblance to the Heckler & Koch G3A and the FN Herstal FAL, both being battle rifles. From this, it can be surmised that the BR in BR-14 stands for Battle Rifle.
- It is (so far) the only Assault Rifle in the game that isn't in a bullpup configuration.
