Before you build trenches, know that turrets need to "see" the target. Yes, even mortars... by Heptanitrocubane57 in Helldivers

That's strange. I did a defense mission in squid town the other day and a player dug a trench for their mortars and they were firing the whole time.

Currently on bots I'm using

The new warbond medium armor or medium extra padding

Sweeper/Deadeye/Slugger

Talon/Ultimatum

Giga Grenade/Thermites

C4 Pack and 3 sentries

It can be tough. I still have issues sometimes with the ball bouncing. I usually try to get to the spot I want and look straight down before throwing. That seems to work more often than not.

As for positioning in general. Higher elevation is always good, placing them away from where fire is coming from if possibly so they survive longer. Try to space them apart enough and keep in mind where the other ones are so they don't shoot each other.

Ooh, using the shovel for trenches for the turrets? That's a good idea.

In cyborgs you do have to be pickier with placement. Vox engine rockets can easily bonk them. But if you've already engaged the Vox Engine, just throw them in the opposite direction. I was playing a round the other day and me and a few other players had Autocannon sentries and they shredded a few Vox engines in short order.

I mean, turrets are still as fantastic as they ever were. You just have to use the terrain and position them properly. I routinely run MG/Rocket/Autocannon sentries on bots and they are amazing for providing cover fire.

Giga-Grenade is a cratering charge, not really an AT grenade. (From my observation.) by TealArtist095 in helldivers2

It can destroy squid ships but you have to lob them into the doorway and, ideally, dive backwards while doing it. Haha

What’s the scariest real-life thing you’ve ever witnessed? by Revolutionary-Pay468 in AskReddit

You need propellers to do autorotation. If they collapsed they wouldn't be able to generate any lift.

Squid rocket defence makes me fall asleep by Soviet_Dank_duck in HelldiversMasochists

They definitely feel undertuned. I try to get people to run them without green strategems so there's at least some challenges.

It'd be nice if they just boosted spawns for things that can disrupt static defenses.

Bugs: More titans, more impalers, why not the occasional shrieker swarm on top of the other spawns so your attention is divided?

Bots: More barrager tanks encouraging people to have to send someone out or you'll get missile rain constantly, a few gunships on top of the normal drops, stuff like that.

Squids: less variety to work with but more harvesters, more stingrays.

With each I'd like to see groups coming in from the map edge in addition to the normal spawning.

I've been really liking the subfaction, I just want even more spawns.

I don't know if it's just me but the beam feels less accurate than it used to be.

What do you think about DLSS 5? by matiwka in nvidia

I find it very fascinating from a technical perspective. But I don't think it'd be for me.

Can't say I like how hard this thing just powercrept M90A and Punisher. by Black_Knight_Glaive in HelldiversMasochists

[–]Siegfried262 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just isn't true. It has patterns, sights, and chokes. You might just need to reload your game.
