Maybe play the game a few times and figure out what’s really working / isn’t before dropping the next video.

This video is soo fucking great thanks. way too underrated (also im curious about armors??)

ayo i was Like number 500. great video man, you've earned another sub to the channel!

I’m having the same issues with the Arc Thrower.

what helmet is that?

How did you get that helmet?

My only gripe bout the shield is it only works while aiming and it counts as using a hand. I want to hold my MG and have my shield at the same time!

A lot of the time I feel like I play a completely different Helldivers 2 to a lot of people. So much so I suspect. Some actual chicanery. For example some people will say "Oh the Illuminate guys cant hit the broadside of a barn so you dont need an energy shield". Meanwhile I constantly get sniped WHILE EVADING by both the Jetpack and the normal Overseers. Similarly someone in a video on YT said you can just lay down and the Harvester cant hit you with its laser beam. Be me - always get f****d by them prone, no prone, sideways or straight. Sometimes even get killed through a full bubble and heavy armor while trying to hose a leg with the MG, because I end up needing so much face time the blasted thing feeds a full beam into my face. How people run around 8-10 and complain the game is Easy is Beyond Me.

I switch back and forth between the machine gun and the autocanon.

17:19 yes I’ve noticed this and I don’t use rail cannon strike anymore

I was using the adjudication as a DMR, guard dog, stalwart or MG, gas grenades, and loyalist.

I don't think the explosive damage immunity on shields is an accident, i think it's intended and I'm okay with it, it gives the high dps ballistics an area to shine

If you have a stalwart, it's great for taking out the shield generator rods for teammates on the harvesters

I hope they don't patch the armor passive and just let it work with support weapons too

6:50 i have to disagree. i run this weapon and get around shields perfectly by shooting at their legs, its a 2 shot kill if you charge the shot, and the first shot will take out shields so you can spam lesser shots too if you needed to

I was down in the comments at the start of the video. When I scrolled back up, and saw the cat, I reflexively hit the sub button!

This nub sucks.

Explosive weapons are amazing against both of the overseers. I get consistent 2-3 shot kills on either of them with it as long as I'm hitting the chest area. I know they have some armor that, while it's only light armor, it has to be stripped away before you start damaging their body. Explosives ignore this, so any weapons with some boom basically liquify their insides. Energy shields seems to be very resistant to explosives, but kinetic weapons tend to shred them pretty quickly. Best thing to do against the warp ships (squid spawners) is to shoot the shields down and then toss a grenade into one of the doorways. They are kinda bugged rn where this will only work on one of the two doors, so if your grenade kinda just bounces out, go around to the other door. Precision strike and 500kg will one shot these spawners, and the orbital laser will wipe them out quick too. These spawners don't have a health pool like the bot fabricators do btw, so anything that doesn't one shot them isn't worth trying to use on them. The striders are fairly easy to take down once you get used to them. once you take down their shield, they can be stunned by a lot of things that stun normal enemies, like the arc thrower and the GL. They can also be stunned with the new melee weapons, so you can do what I did the other day and jump pack onto their head and beat them to a pulp all while they're powerless to stop you.

I have found that the railgun is not very good against the Illuminate. That said, I have been aiming for the eye of the Harvester, not the shoulder. I also find that it takes more than one fully charged (90%) shot to kill the Overseers. Is anyone else getting this?

Don't forget they are releasing a non-warbond stratagem- the gas mines. We just have to earn them first

Im in love with the directional shield... makes you waaaay tankier ... and can even tank a cannon round directly graba a crossbow and some thermites and u can go up to a tank and termite it to death

I do wish they would add tons of free stuff instead of drip feeding stratagems.

What helmet is that in the beginning?

Cool guide. Shame it's useless now that we've definitely defeated the illuminate forever, and they'll never return

I definitely agree with you on stratagems within warbonds. I would much prefer war bonds similar to democratic detonation, where you got three full armor sets, three weapons and a secondary. I'd much rather pay for a war bond that has weapons in it rather than taking weapons out of the war bond to put stratagems in

I play helldivers to drive ! Beep beep! Get in Ken! 💁🏻‍♀️ 💅🏻

Omg amazing !

So gross to sell us a reload speed buff.

They're too easy!??!?

Armor got released bugged, suprise suprise Arrowhead

I don't play Helldivers to hit things. I play to shoot things. The desire for more melee weapons like swords is baffling.

Heads up: I've heard that the Peak Physique armour passive (100% increased melee damage, weapon handling increased) does not work with the Melee weapon's primary fire, you have to hit the dedicated melee button in order to get the benefit. After a brief test the baton feels so much better when wearing Peak Physique and using the melee button when compared to wearing any other set and using the primary fire so I think what I've heard is accurate. Hopefully this will be fixed at some point as I'm loving the Ballistic Shield+Melee combo against bots, being able to just walk up to Heavy Devs, blocking everything they throw at me just to hit them with The Stick™

I think the way the game is currently monetized is fine. It just comes down to whether you value saving your time or saving your money more. If prices stay stable to where they are now it’s not that hard to grind out the credits. But if you don’t have the time you most likely have a job and 10 bucks every 6 weeks is not that bad. Also I kind of like weapons popping up in the shop if they are priced like the baton. Say you wanted the sickle but nothing else from the warbond, you would have to spend 1k credits for a mid warbond just to acquire one weapon. If they sold weapons in the store and you really wanted it you would be saving your credits. And on top of all of this they still are giving out stratagems and vehicles for free.

I'm gonna try out the Lib Pen primary and Guard Dog with the new Siege-Ready armor that gives more ammo. It seems to work well against Illuminates.

Please please please AH, do a light, med, and heavy armor

Blitzer, loyalist, impact. Commando, rocket sentry, 120mm barrage, gattling barrage

Appreciate your high-quality content, Maplewood

Guys pls don't use your 500k on something that can be destroyed with your primary and a single grenade 😭

Aww a happy cat, I can tell it's well taken care of

Cat ballin

10:45 to add onto this, I'd like them to include all of the patterns into one package that will cover all future vehicles and reskinnable things. Patterns are adding an unbelievable amount of bloat to the warbonds taking up over half the pages. If they did that they could add a lot more things into them. It feels like a way to cheap out and put less effort into them by fattening it up with the separate patterns, although I understand if they think all the extra effort wouldn't be worth what they'd get out of it monetization-wise.

Another thing you can do with the new shield is right before it breaks you can put it away for it to charge faster then waiting for it to break. I hope they add a feature where you can turn the normal shield backpack on and off so it can charge faster as well.

what helmet is he wearing

I want the Laser Cannon to be solid so bad. It needs a damage buff, I feel like the Schythe should have a bit more damage as well imho

MG-43 reloads so fast

Siiiiiiic

i went under the harvester a few times and shot it with the recoiles rifle xD

The gatling and machine gun sentries aim for the harvester eyes, so they will definitely rip it apart.

Stalwart sounds like a good option on paper but I found myself taking too long to deal with tier 2 enemies and it's not great enough at horde management to prefer it to the other machine guns. MG43, HMG and strafing run really seem to be in a sweet spot right now

I've had great success with the Laser Cannon, you just have to really hit the Heads of the Overseers and Voteless. It also takes down a Harvester without overheating
