how to PROPERLY use the flamethrower - HELPDIVERS
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 май 2024
- The flamethrower build is one of the most complicated playstyles in Helldivers 2. In order to make it a little easier to grasp, I go in depth into everything you need to know about the flamethrower, flame weapons & all things related to fire. Tier lists, moving imagery, loud noises. Ill use it all to retain your attention in episode 3 of HELPDIVERS.
Thank you to mr Scroid for the voiceover. He played CSGO 7 months ago.

Not that this was a serious tactics video, but one thing I think is important to know when using the flamethrower is that chargers die quickly if you focus on one leg, not center of mass. Randoms that use my flamethrower never seem to know this, and are left with charger that is F****** RAW.
Its FWUCKIN RAWWW
Easiest charger kill IMO with flamethrower is stun grenade + hold flamethrower steady on closest leg. I know you know that OP, I'm just sharing my favorite way.
@@TheChrisLeone In a perfect world where it’s just me and the charger, stuns wouldn’t be necessary since it will die after one charge. However, it’s me, the charger, the bile titan, 8 jumpy bastards, and assorted riffraff preventing optimal roasting positions.
So yeah I agree if you want to be the dedicated anti charger, stuns are helpful. I really should have gotten that warbond, but got Detonation and Polar. On the bright side, a helmet from Polar and the fire fighter armor from Detonation looks dope when using the flamethrower.
Wait really? So that's why some chargers die faster than 3/4 tank. And some take more. I don't know how charget legs work. Since I was never part if the leg meta when railgun was around. Thanks for the tip
I think the ttk is around 4 seconds. Stuns/ cover fire are a must since your usual cover is all focused on its leg. Emphasis on fire.
Having to dodge hunters while focusing a moving leg is like being neo without the slow mo
“Ooh that smell, can’t you smell that smell”
Ever since figuring out how to use flame effectively, the flamethrower has been my go to support for every bug planet. I do always warn my fellow helldivers that ill be cooking, so to stand well behind or to the side of me so as to not feel the burn.
I would totally use that weapon you made in the video
Sounds fun. On paper, until alexus gets his grubby hands on it.
Great changes are coming overall.
Now, what would be realistic, 4 seconds of flames? 5? 6 extra mags? 35-40 rounds per mag? Dmg, per shot, eh, the fire is the main attraction so who cares?
Probably gonna be same as pummeler anyway. Ergonomics should be good since it’s an smg for cqb. How many shots to charge it? A whole mag to charge ti seems fair ish. Fire is really strong after all.
Cooking is a passion of mine, and while I love the energy, you seriously underestimated the utility of a cast iron mech. I think you're leaving that steak practically blue. Heat your element with an eagle napalm, that gets the little veggie ones sautéed. Then, jump back in your mech and season its face WELL with your missile pod. Then, make sure to pepper the bile ducts. Bile titan strip, hellmire style.
Alright, Louie. I'll do you proud.
Using robots in the meals? Very audacious! I've never seen such a quality chefdiver since the first galactic war!
I wonder how we would cook Sushi…
As someone that works as a cook and plays Helldivers, finally, a video specifically catered to me.
Nah. I believe any good cook will cook themselves a bit too. If you're not diving backwards and setting your foot on fire are you even flaming?
PYR-107 is fire.
Holy shit, this madman is using a Flamethrower on bots. Great video! 10/10, perfect plating.
Powerful video, very good. Flamethrower is good weapon, gets me roasted bugs in hundrets.
YEEAAAHHH NEW VIDEO BABY
10/10 video, I shall be putting my new knowledge into practice soon o7
HELP, DIERS
Man, just wanted to say your content is top notch, I really dig it. Really appreciate your work and just want to let you know
Another banger vid. Keep up the good work dude!
Such amazing video and so well put together ,love it
Glad to see you’re getting some more recognition man as always good work g
10/10 production value, well done!
These videos are soooo good
Loved the video! Great tip to use stun grenades with the flame thrower. I read the whole Chefdiver certificate, and I have to say that fishing is fun!
Love your editing and timing. My favorite part was the Cooking information juice
damn somebody had a lot of fun making this video, great work!
I love your way of making vids, don't stop!
This guy reminds me of a channel “I did a thing”? I think that’s what it’s called . Same funny energy here . I love it !
idk why but 7:27 really sent me for some reason. great video man, seriously top tier
Oh boy!
I can't wait to unlock all these Delicious stratagems and put theory into practice!
This is a masterpiece. An absolute classic. This the HD2 guide magnum opus.
Loving the new graphics! The 3D models are so cool
Love the humor, nice video bro.
haha this was so well made. the VHS style was very well done
scroid voiceover :)
Bro that [pokemon mystery dungeon OST: great canyon] goes hard at 5:07
Do not ask how I instantly recognized this song, but know that you have fantastic taste
This video was...hot
I’m gonna need to use all of these tips to fry all my fish! God I love fishing, it’s so meditative. Finally getting a break from from the ole ball and chain. It’s just something special! And I gotta say, fhe British Dogger is definitely a top 3 soiling trawler for me. Very few can beat it!
Good weapon idea
reminds me of playing my N64 on a good ole CRT telly. or watching those old VHS tapes that Nintendo would send us every month to advertise new games.
As a pianist: the Residual needs a fire-rate cap, to prevent people like me from playing with both our index and middle finger on the fire button, and alternating between them for infinite damage. (For people who are far more skilled than even myself, check out some osu! world records.)
Otherwise, absolutely brilliant idea! I need it!
power to the people with the skills I say!
My takeaway from the certificate was that luring bugs into water then lighting them on fire is a cross between fishing and cooking so boiling.
Babe wake up, Lohue uploaded again
this is the hottest chefdivers 2 video ever cooked up.
I used to go fishing with my grandpa when I was younger, good times.
Extra crisp for Punch-Out music! 5 micheline stars!
RUclips videos of the best helldiver content on the platform. you bring me enjoyment like no other Creator currently! thanks for being insanely based!!
thank you so much man, even just the comment makes my day. stop by for a stream one day so I can thank you properly!
@@lohue9029 I will
As a veteran chef diver, nothing smells better than the flames of democracy
tfw the amazing editing makes you go subscribe, but you're already subscribed
If only there were more piscivore options
Instructions unclear, another squad deployed™
Ngl fishing is one of the best ways to spend an evening
Love it
You had me at 'Chefdivers'
Unfortunately my subscriptions were private for some reason, maybe next time I’ll get to see myself
Charger legs on direct flame = my favorite. I was surprised when the Chef recommended them over any other cut.
I love fishing but the worst part is that the fishes keep on getting scared by all those bug breaches and all of those bot drops.
That has to be Pokemon mystery dungeon music. I recognize that almost anywhere.
Well some of it is.
Perfect timing! Needed to think of what to have for my last meal since I am being executed tomorrow for stealing my Democracy Officer’s eyepatch. Thanks Louie!
If I have a penny every time I miss click B instead of "V" to heal when I'm burning, I would have a very hot penny while hugging the flame
Damn, now I’m hungry
When TF2 chefpyro discovered helldivers
You are the fucking best man
I feel much safer after watching this
I _need_ a backpack fed heavy flamer.
Oh cool, we wear the same armor
When recommending the Flamethrower, I like to make two points; the technically correct answer and the objectively funny answer.
Technically correct: The flamethrower is exclusively a bug weapon. It's just coded to be bad on bots and straight up just can't kill tanks. If you think it can kill Hulk, it takes too much time and requires you to hit the heat sinks on its back. The flamethrower does much better on bugs and will kill everything minus Titans and Shriekers.
The objectively funny answer: Bugs have nerves and therefore feel pain. Bots don't and therefore do not feel pain. Use the flamethrower on bugs!
i always run flamethrower, supply and stun grenades for bugs. chargers dont last 3 seconds with it.
God I love fishing
WTF have i sumbled upon...
This is great! 🤣🤣
Man, I wonder if I could use the flamethrower to cook fish? I just love fishing SO much, but cooking them is such a pain. Maybe I'll have to try it out on an Illuminate if I ever find one. They are basically fish right? Though I'm not sure if other fishermen would accept burning sentient aquatic aliens with gouts of intense yet portable fire to be "actual fishing". 🤔 Only one way to find out I suppose. 🐟🐟🐟
Was that...the punch out theme?
Tips I've learned by mainly using the flamethrower. Don't ADS it's useless and slows your turn speed, if a bug is calling for a bug breach even if it's a Scavenger you won't have time to kill it, you can kill any bug easily (even easier with Enhanced Combustion) besides Bile Titans (you can light them on fire but it doesn't do much damage) and Shriekers because of range, hit the ground and the target with your flame, Hive Guards are annoying to kill and Spewers are annoyingly tanky to kill (the Spewers seriously need to be nerfed a lot), thermites are terrible, flamethrower are really good at holding off bug breaches, but be careful if friendlies throw shit (especially gas idk why people use it it's not really worth the risk and limiting a very good player for swarm clearing), your flame is affected by wind (so if you fire perpendicular to the wind, flame will appear on the ground behind where you fired), and finally bonus points if you fight on Hellmire (seriously am I the only one that plays on Hellmire, it has only been conquered like twice)
Also it is very good at destroying eggs, and you can easily get 50+ kills (on level 7 atleast) on a bug breach if you are smart with your plays.
Hmmm~ the smell of A5 charger meat lol
Fishing
song names? :(
I was looking for actual tips to be honest, so I couldn't really appreciate the humor as much as I wanted to.
Like where is the best to aim on smaller enemies? I've heard some people say the ground, others say onto the enemies themselves.
What's the best way to avoid that kind of "back draft" you can get that lights you on fire sometimes?
How much of a tank is required to kill certain things before and after the flame upgrade?
You know... Actual research work.
Am I an asshole for being disappointed when the title of the video is "The Complete Guide on Proper Flamethrower Usage" ??
no I think thats fine, its mostly a satirical video so I can appreciate it might not have been what youre after. I find most guides on the flamethrower to be very inconsistant & present a lot of "potential" truths. for example to answer your question about where to aim on smaller enemies & to avoid back drafts, its near never consistant over a large play time of "testing". sometimes it just happens for seemingly no reason. It feels like aming below a hive guards front armour works faster but other times it wont register the damage as quickly & back drafts will sometimes occur without any visual flame touching you so its hard to dictate whats going on. I think the flamethrower is the peak of just have fun with it & it will do its job, find your own style of play & dont worry about the numbers side of things. thats just my take anyway. love ya.
@@lohue9029 that's fair. I've noticed the inconsistency as well and I use it a lot. I manage to do good work with it often but then sometimes (like my game last night), I just end up screwing up constantly. Lit on fire left and right and a disappointing amount of kills. But you're probably right. Embrace the chaos and just do what ya can. Cheers mate.
The PYR is such a cool fucking idea I love it
Bump
Hey sweety im here for some kino
Bile spewers and such absolutely suck, can't just hold the line firmly with a flamethrower anymore, those shits attack behind the wall of flaming death
First 🫡
unironically suggesting mines in any build should be a thoughtcrime - report to your democracy officer.
Nah, he's using meat tenderizer seasoning, where he should be bringing the mechwok to cook up those biles.
The vcr effect is cool, but it’s way too much for an entire video. I just can’t watch
I don't want to be negative and hit you with a "Make this video how I would have made it," but I want to like these videos more than I do, and I'm not ENTIRELY sure why I don't.
I feel like actual useful advice could be delivered in these, but I also get the joke that it's useless.
If anything, I think it's that the Frequency and Impact of the jokes isn't high enough, this isn't a format where you can dwell on a bit that's not making someone laugh for too long.
Also too much of this is just Not Advice, rather than the much funnier, Advice that Sucks.
Like the open Flame Roast is what comes to my mind here. It's not advice, it's not anything. It's just "Don't aim with the flamethrower."
... Why? It's a statement thats not a tip nor trick, and there's no justification given outside of it giving swagger that no one sees.
That joke could have been "Try not aiming. It's a flame thrower. You are trying to cook his whole zip code, not thread one between his eyes. A true chef is as wielded by his tools as they are by him, so become one with the stream and just let the napalm flow, until a crisp charcoal black. Now you are cookin with War Crimes!"
Sorry I don't mean to tell you how to run your channel, I'd like to see you be successful, as the idea here is good, I'm just not feeling them like I want to be.
thank you, this is invaluable feedback. always working to improve my writing & I will definitely take a lot of this on board. Im still figuring things out as I go so any pointers in the right direction are always helpful.
I think it's mostly personal preference. I love the way that the jokes are delivered, more genuine as opposed to an obvious punchline based joke. I feel like a little more advice could be fit in well, but I still adore these videos and the editing style. @lohue9029 seriously well done, and keep up the good work!!
@@Totally_eViL incorporating more actual advice will be something Ill do next time im thinking
