Intense Heat – Periods of high temperatures increase stamina drain and speed up heat buildup in weapons.
Effects
Intense Heat is applied depending on the time of day and weather conditions. Planets with Fire Tornados will activate the Intense Heat modifier only for the duration of the Fire Tornado storm.
- Maximum stamina is halved. This means it takes half as long for a Helldiver to become winded from constant sprinting, but it also means they regain their maximum stamina in half the usual time (because the rate of stamina regen is unaffected).
- Heat-based weapons lose heat slowly, contrary to the in-game description of increasing build-up. This means that once overheated, it takes longer for the weapon to cool down, usually by a factor of 33% relative to it's normal cooldown duration.[1]

Changes
- The Intense Heat modifier is no longer static throughout the entire mission, and may now change based on time of day or different weather conditions.
- Some desert planets will now only have the Intense Heat modifier active during the day. This means that during night the planet will either have no modifier, or in some cases have the Extreme Cold modifier.
- Arid planets (similar to the Hellmire planet) will now only have the Intense Heat modifier active during fire tornado storms.
