Sandstorms – Dense sandstorms reduce mobility and greatly reduce visibility for both enemy and friendly units.
Details
- Reduces visibility
- Things past 5m are more difficult to see
- Things past 25m are not visible
- Detection-ranges of enemies and Stratagem targeting-range are also reduced approximately by ~60-percent (E.G. AX/LAS-5 "Guard Dog" Rover targeting range is reduced from 30-meters to 12-meters during the storm)
- Lock-on ranges for guided weapons such as the FAF-14 Spear or P-92 Warrant are unaffected by weather conditions.
- Slows down Helldivers, both normal walking and sprinting. Does not affect sprint duration.
- Functionally identical with Blizzards
