Great tips as always! I just want to add my five cents to stratagems selections against bugs: I highly recommend trying Orbital AirBurst Strike. It's very fast, you can throw it into the breach and it will solely clear it, and it's great when you want to have 500kg because it will allow it to be the only eagle stratagem so it will be easier to cooldown.

Was discussing this with a guy in a mission the other night, and he favoured the Gatling Barrage over it since the rounds it fires are explosive and thus will harm anything but chargers and Bile Titans, as well as coming with a shorter cooldown. So that's an option when dealing with planets where there are a lot of Bile Spewers and Brood Commanders, where the Airburst Strike probably comes out ahead vs it on planets with lots of pouncers and hunters.

Last tip is game changing for me, because i started helldinving on bots. runing away from bot drop ships is a complitly optimal way to play, trigering a bot drop and running away on to the next objective, will leave a bunch of bots droping on nowhere with nothing to do and you can outrun them even on heavy armor.

They still havent even admitted the nerfs to the Railgun were unwarranted knee-jerk bullshit despite them literally making nearly every other support weapon better than the pre-nerf railgun and most of them "trivializing" Chargers and other heavy units more than it EVER did.

Great job! Great videos

The positioning tip is why I believe the jump pack is better than the shield. You can force more opportunities using the jump pack by crossing larger gaps/drops. Not to mention it gives you the ability to get on rocks the bugs cannot climb and will only be able to get to you by burrowing - which only happens one bug at a time if you’re stationary - or with spit attacks, making most other potential threats, like chargers and brood commanders, a low priority because they cannot reach you.

Good Timing Diver! about to report to the bug front after my time against the automatons. For Super Earth!

Have you done a video on movement? How to dive and sprint effectively, how to get out of being perma slowed by hunters, just overall getting out of tough situations

When it comes to balanced vs specialized I say play to your team. If someone picks up a ton of anti-tank grab a bunch of CC and horde clearing options. Let them tackle the big stuff while you sweep the little bugs. I played a game on Sunday where I was flamethrower, napalm, mortar and supply pack. I was clearing swathes of bugs while my teammates were crushing the heavies with eats, recoilless rifles, and one dude had a spear IIRC. I was the only horde clearing dude, and they glued to my ass the whole mission. xD

Nice tips, can you make another for the Automatons. Thank you!

Legend, what do you think about the Punisher shotgun? After the Breaker nerf i consider Punisher as better option, since it does more damage, have wider spread so less shots are being missed, and 0 problems with not finishing reload animation due to explosion or anything else. Also it hardly gets out of ammo.

Okay great tips but just one question. For the play aggressively tip, isn’t it better to avoid patrols for example if possible than to attack them and risk a bug breach?

Good tips. I've been watching people play lvl 9 missions as if it was a walk in the park but every time I've tried to reproduce it in my games I end up struggling dealing comfortably with any missions above lvl 5... The first reason might obviously be a skill issue, as I seem to be bringing all the adequate weapons and stratagems yet most often than not end up being caught in freaking unwinnable reinforcement loops. The second issue I have though - which relates directly to the tips in this video - is the fact that most anti-heavy unit weapons are incompatible with backpack assets. If you take a shield (or a drone for trashmob clearing) you have to give up on the autocannon, the recoiless rifle and the Spear, which only leaves you with the EAT (hard to cast when swarmed + requires cooldown), the flamethrower (aka the (self-)friendly-fire weapon of choice), the grenade launcher (useless against armor), the Quasar (great but hard to use when swarmed), or minor options like the (inefficient) arc thrower or the defunct railgun... As a result, I either have to sacrifice being able to deal fast with chargers or accept the risk of being 2-tapped by Hunters or Stalkers, hence my exponential difficulty scaling past lvl 6 for which I haven't found a parade yet.

Why werent stalkers/shreikers even MENTIONED in this video??? Also, stealth is just as usable on bugs as bots, just give them a wider range. If you kill all the bugs in a small group at around the same time (strategems, grenades, rapid fire/teamwork) they will NOT be able to call for reinforcing. The SMALLEST bugs are the ones calling for more bug breaches, there is a spottable thorax movement before they do it, much like the bot flare launch.

I feel like the small obes are the more dangerous cause they come in hordes, theyre fast af, they got unlimitet attacks

2 more tips number 1 Do not I repeat DO NOT Engage every single fight or enemy your just gonna have a shit load of problems for absolutely no reason (I think he brought this up toward the end number 2 when on an objective do not bring your swarm of bugs to the objective that is clear when someone is on it also if a lot of bugs on it one person hide the rest draw the enemies away from the objective the one hiding and has no bugs aggrod go do the objective quietly and quickly quill save alot of time rather then drying 10 times to clear the objective only to give it up in the end and rotate back!!

Honestly Rover > Shield for hunters. Shield just drops off too fast and then you get swarmed. Rover will both shoot down hunters mid pounce while you are dealing with the ones still taking their position and he will constantly protect your back while repositioning. As a result you will consistently have to deal with much less hunters actively. if you pair it with Arc thrower and focus on bigger threats, most hunters will get zapped as a collateral damage, further pacifying them passively before they become a problem.

It made sense and felt good and was risk/reward because you're liable to straight up insta a fellow helldiver if it chains badly or you aim wrong. Now it's full charge or nothing, anytime.

The full charge time is reduced compared to what it was before, so the speed nerf isn't as bad as it seems at first. It still has enough dps to effectively clear hordes, and the stagger vastly improves its ability to deal with chargers, brood commanders, devastators, and even hulks. I think overall it's in a more healthy spot now, it just still has targeting problems to do with corpses and mines blocking despite clear line of sight. It was fun to half-charge, but it was pretty awkward that the moment you stopped shooting once (for instance after switching weapons to deal with close range bugs), you needed 2s before the next shot.

I'd take consistency over unintented power any time. Doing the quick charge with it made it awkward (and painful) with longer use, and sometimes it just won't do it when you really need it to. Plus Takibo has done a video on it after the patch and it still does really well (stagger was actually great against chargers and such). The DPS is longer but it's still powerful. You just have to work harder with it.

I used the Arc Thrower a lot prior to the patch (I'm a sucker for ways I can both carry my friends and kill them all at the same time!) and have to say that I actually like it better now. It felt nigh unusable for bots before, but now with such a large knockback, it can really help tame Hulks and other bots, helping your teammates take them down without injury. This is a big deal when you're trying to defend a chokepoint and stick together as a group. So yes, while the charge speed is slightly slower compared to the half-charge, it's less annoying, more balanced, and yet even more of a "support" wep. The only "downside" is that it tends to kill my friends less often. :(

Im only level 17, i take breaker, flamethrower, guard dog rover, 500kg and eagle cluster, get like 500 kills a game and we do all the objectives

ya know what also dove to hell ...the performance

The only tip you need is to pray and hope you dont crash after 20m in the game

Just fix your system, mine hardly ever crashes

Possibly 2 to 3 crashes in 90 hours game play. You’re just sour milk

​@Isok115 like the other two commenters pointed out, you just gotta fix your dogsh*t system because my game crashed only 2 to 3 times in over 60 hours of playtime.

iuno about everyone else but i started keeping track of how much time went down the drain due to the game crashing and I'm currently at 410minutes. Arrowhead needs to fucking figure it out or give us some free stratagems or special content cause its fucking pissing me off

you tried looking up how other people have fixed crashing with similar setup to you?

@@sadghfajdslhgsadklgk I play on PS5 so the setup is very standard. Since they patched the crashes its been good.

Best advanced tip, don't create or follow a meta, use what you want to use, KZreadrs are always saying something is overpowered.

just a side thing: dont solo objectives. seen too many players think they can solo a heavy nest just to die, drop 20+ samples and then quit out of frustration. Just stick with the group pls

i solo

It’s definitely doable but attempting to solo nests, shrieker nests, stalker nest, and the geological survey guaranteed spawns will very likely result in death

We’re all flocking here now that we cant kill some clankers

we are playing a different game - you are running away from 40 hunters, 1 charger and 1 titan im running away from 40 hunters, 3 chargers, 2 titans and 10 bile spewers
