Helldivers 2 // Stealthy Sniping - Lvl 9 Automaton Solo Helldive - All Clear, No Deaths - AMR Build

HTML-код
  • Опубликовано: 6 июн 2024
  • Solo Helldive, Max Difficulty Lvl 9, all objectives (Main + Optional) completed, all outposts destroyed, 0 deaths.
    Mission Modifiers: 50% increased Stratagem Cooldown and 100% increased Stratagem Call-in Time.
    After the bittersweet ending of the last run ( • Helldivers 2 // Up Mal... ), I knew I had to put things right. Went a little more gung-ho on this one, and it ended up the deathless one, funny how things turn out eh?
    Hope you'll excuse my constant radar pinging at the end - had a few 'perfect' runs ruined because I'd missed an objective, I didn't need to worry though as I'd done the radar objective already which highlights the rest of the optionals.
    PS: Really love the day/night cycle in this game - not only can you see what time your mission will start at on the mission map, it can transition from day to night mid-mission, lowering visibility for the enemy (and you).
    PS2: Apologies to my latest kick victim, Psyqhical :( - if only the game had a private setting...
    ___________
    Build was more or less the same as last time - scout armour for the movement speed, stamina, stealth and radar bonuses.
    For weapons I've gone with the Diligence and the Senator - the Senator is amazing at one-shotting the basic enemies, which are your primary targets when engaging since they're the ones that can sound the alarm, while the Diligence offers 1-2 shot damage at close or long ranges.
    The Anti-Materiel Rifle I think gets slept on a lot - while it's nothing special vs the Bugs, vs the Automatons it's an amazing all-purpose weapon - it can 2-shot hulks or 1-shot Devastators if you hit them in the eye, and has the magazine and firerate to be spammed at targets if they get too close. Its scope means you can use it at very long-ranges more easily than the railgun too. It does require much more aim than the railgun though, as hitting those weakspots is necessary.
    The Eagle Airstrike and Eagle 110mm Pods I brought for destroying objectives, though this time I swapped out the Orbital Railcannon for the Orbital Laser, as a tool for clearing out a busy objective while I take care of another, as well as a panic strat if things get too hot.

    I absolutely love that so far the way to play isn't heavily dictated on using whatever does the most DPS because everything you fight is a bullet sponge. It allows weapons to have either a priority on mag size rate of fire or precision. And it allows faction types to feel very different from one another entirely. Really allows playstyles to shine through as I actually enjoy engineering builds, for once, against the bugs and against the robots I can feel like seal team 6 sneaking into an outpost. Really love the build. I've often just gone autocannon for the support weapon against the bots, but I may have to revisit the AM Rifle. Team wise, one of each probably works very well. As those stupid chainsaw guys don't like going down easily.

      You are likely right about the spray and pray. Strafing run was a go to for Helldive+ missions against the squids in the original. No armor, but quick Regen shields so volume of fire is important!

      @ates423 3 месяца назад +6

      You should try the armor with the increased throwing distance and pair it with eagle 500kg, eagle airstrike, orbital walking barrage, and orbital laser/orbital smoke/orbital precision strike.
      You can basically snipe fabricators detector/jammer towers, cannons by throwing the stratagems from really far away
      Another build is pairing the supply pack with a stalwart or grenade launcher, impact nades, and explosive resistance armor. Using a supply pack allows you to rely on the stratagem weapon as your main weapon and you can spam the rounds like crazy for every engagement, the impact nades being restored let’s you take out tricky enemies quickly as well, even towers/tanks. You can pair this with the 500kg and smokes/orbital rail cannon. This thing melts highly dense enemies and is good for sustained or quick combat. Explosion resistance makes it easier to storm towers and absorb tank rounds/mortar fire. You rely on your air strikes to take out bile titans/hulks/tanks/chargers. The grenade launcher is really good for taking out hives and fabricators as you can snipe them with it, and the stalwart is great for mowing down bugs.

    I really like how different the playstyle is against bots vs bugs. You have to carefully pick your fights, and when you do fight, make heavy use of cover and focus on accuracy over volume of fire. Very cool change of pace compared to the spray & pray strategy for dealing with the swarming mechanics of bugs.

      @@newspiked7385I wouldn’t be surprised if they have an “energy shield” type mechanic where you have to overwhelm the shield with volume of fire before you can hit their otherwise relatively fragile body underneath. Maybe energy weapons can deal more damage to their shields, thus incentivizing their use and making the laser cannon actually good.

    During the Galactic War against the Automaton menace a "Secret War" was being fought behind the scenes on planets like Malevelon Creek, Ubanea, and Ustotu, unknown to the Media or Public, what seemed like Ordinary Helldivers preformed daring behind the lines raids on Automaton territory. These Elite Hellldivers ran solo missions, their only support was provided by their Super Destroyer and brave Eagle Pilots. On Malevelon Creek alone the Automatons dedicated 50,000 bots, their sole mission: Kill these Elite Helldivers.

    Watching this inspired me to test out how enemy detection works. Finally completed a mission without any alerts/bot drops and it seems like the arc thrower is the best stealth weapon as it doesn't fire a projectile. As long as you one shot every enemy it arcs to you won't trigger an alert. however killing any member of a patrol will alert the entire patrol, and killing and detonating a jetpack bot while they're standing close to another bot will result in auto-detection.

      I'll be testing out a lot of stuff when the new patch arrives and I already have an idea of what I'll choose.
      Feel free to shoot your ideas here too.
      Also, here's some neat info about stamina and armour I tested myself.
      I just got curious and wanted to see what the differences and numbers were.
      Because I love my stamina booster, but might swap it for the upcoming "reduced encounter" booster when soloing of which you can find my full map clear solo helldivers no death run videos here.
      Tests below were ran on 13th March with no support weapons being carried and without running into any obstacles.
      Armour: SC-30 Trailblazer Scout - Speed 550 - Stamina regen 125
      Booster: Stamina booster
      38 second run
      7 second full stamina regen
      Armour: SC-30 Trailblazer Scout - Speed 550 - Stamina regen 125
      Booster: None
      30 second run
      10 second full stamina regen
      ###################
      Armour: Medium armour - Speed 500 - Stamina regen 100

      Booster: None
      16 second run
      6 second full stamina regen
      The stats are strange and armour seems to have some kind of hidden stamina bar that changes depending on your armour.
      Also, I don't think the passive stuff for the scout armour helps that much. The radar isn't accurate and is mostly useless.
      The 30% less distance to detection doesn't really change much. But there's a new light armour with 100 armour - 550 speed - 125 stamina regen. I think that'll be worth over the stealth passive when your shield breaks against bugs and against bot light weapons in general.

      ​@@newspiked7385 Okay, so I just tried my idea.
      It was the B1 supply back pack + grenade launcher + mech + airstrike.
      The idea was to have a ridiculous number of stun grenades to replace the shield backpack.
      Then I'd take the CE-74 breaker light armour with +2 grenades.
      Problem is, the idea sounds nice...
      But it's INSANELY HARD to execute.
      There are just too many small buggers and jumpers to be aware of from every direction. One hit from a jumper will ruin your day and stims nor stun grenades will stop the CC chain.
      You have to watch your mini map a hell of a lot more for stalkers, because you can't afford to take a hit from them.
      Because as nice as stims are to regen health, they will CC stun you for about 5 seconds and knock you some place you don't want to go. Making it really easy for nearby enemies to finish your off and gives the other bugs time to catch up on you.
      I tried. I really tried, but the B1 supply backpack will not replace the shield backpack.
      It's just too hard to pull off solo level 9.
      Also, the supply backpack only resupplies 2 grenades at a time. Which sucks. 2x4 isn't a lot. You can easily find a grenade resupply drop in a nearby point of interest.
      And 2 extra grenades out of a max of 6 isn't going to change the outcome of a battle that heavily.
      Stun grenades do make extraction a hell of a lot easier against bugs though.
      But man, I really wanted to make it work. Lol.
      I'll be going back to my older build of trailblazer scout armour + airstrike + grenade launcher + mech + shield back pack.
      The only difference will be I'm using stun grenades instead of HE grenades.

    So 110mm will home for fabs? Thats really good to know.
    How are you preventing the base from alarming as you take it down? Maybe it is because I tend to throw 380s at them, but inevitably I get an alarm and then get locked into alarm phase. It seems by airstriking them you mostly avoid this?

      Thanks, and good to see another HD1 vet! Didn't play much solo back then though (at least not by choice...)
      Yeah, the homing is really useful though hulks can attract the targetting too.
      If you mean the bases that I'm airstriking, I have a feeling that they won't aggro on thrown stratagems unless they see the stratagem ball land, not 100% on that though. I'm definitely tripping some alarms once they explode though, I'm just usually out of the area by the time the bot drops come, it's why I try and get as close to my exit direction before I throw the strats.

    Geniune question, how do you find such safe spots to land in?

      I generally go for areas far away from the red zones of activity, preferably near the map edge - I like to start somewhat near the extract especially for automatons so you can clear the extract first - if things go loud, better to draw patrols to the extract now than when you're about to leave.
      Also as you drop, do your best to steer clear of enemies - you can save yourself an alert sometimes.

      If you mean railgun, they're both good. Railgun is a lot more forgiving on your aim, but I prefer the AMR vs bots as it's easier to pop in and out of cover and get shots off quick as you don't need to charge your shots. If your aim is true you can two-shot hulks and one-shot devastators, and move onto to the next target without having to reload or charge up your next shot - it's just tough to get those shots off under fire without practice. I also find it better vs the berserkers, you can go for headshots or even just spamfire and they'll go down quick.

      Clicking was to check for any sub-objectives I missed, but I'd done all 5 so it was unnecessary.
      When the mission timer runs out, the evac dropship is automatically called and you have to book it to the extract. You can still do sub-objectives in this time though. Letting the clock run out means you don't have to stay on the point, but it means you have to survive without any stratagems or reinforces, so it's a tradeoff.

I can recall them in a safe place if they die and pick off heavies from hella downtown lol AMR underrated hella. (For those wondering if build can translate to co-op it definitely can.) Tho I recommend changing some Strats(EMS mortar beside you SLAPPPPPS) depending on team picks. Tried out smokes but they're just...Idk not a good enough impact. What are your thoughts on them? I think Missle pods could use a little buff maybe two missle shots? Not too many it would get op fast, but still. One's rough if it locks wrong intended target lol. Also FOV does make an impact on Long range gameplay in games. Maybe play around with it and it'll make hits easier too. One last thing is the AMR seems to shoot a little to the left of center scope for me... Not big deal on closer targets but 250 range it's noticeable. At least for me.
