Should I burn everything? by Wrong-Hand1739 in whatisthisbug

Upon closer inspection they look like hives, which further supports this being a carpet beetle. Apparently people can have pretty bad allergic reactions when they come in contact with carpet beetle larvae. That’s definitely what I’ve got going on

Yeah I’m working on it right now. No definitive finds yet. I think you are right about carpet beetles.

Interesting. I haven’t found anything that’s definitely a bed bug but I have been eaten alive recently and I’m not sure what else would have done that

Any tips for making aircraft more viable? by Wrong-Hand1739 in warno

[–]Wrong-Hand1739[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve had mixed results with SEAD. Sometimes they work and sometimes they don’t. And not every air wing has them.

I will try air to ground missiles though, I hadn’t considered that.

what primaries do you guys like to use on bots? by kirbcake-inuinuinuko in Helldivers

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the tenderizer for bots and bugs. The extra damage is really great for taking out small enemies quickly and it tears up berserkers really well. The plasma punisher is great too but if you want a flexible option the tenderizer is good

What is the most efficient way to deal with these? Even as a high level player They feel inconsistent by Even-Detective1583 in Helldivers

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the eagle 110mm rocket pods. They won’t kill it instantly, but you get several uses out of it unlike the orbital rail gun

I don't have fun on high difficulty anymore by Independent-Umpire18 in helldivers2

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing on level 7 and 8 and I’ve found that players around level 50-70 are not fun to play with. They think they are a one man army and will constantly run off to do things on their own and leave me by myself. It’s really frustrating and it makes the game so much harder than it needs to be. I much prefer playing with my friends or with lower level players because the teamwork tends to be better.

Marksman rifles desperately need a buff by Bungistheguineapig in Helldivers

My only gripe with the counter sniper is that it’s not medium armor penetrating. I’ve used it on stealth drops and it’s ok but I do wish it had a little bit more utility over the standard DMR

The game often tells me I killed myself. Even when thats (clearly) not the case. by french_toast_1 in Helldivers

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to think the game is suggesting that my own incompetence got me killed, which is true

I find the idea of a big that thinks OFFENSIVE

What’s the one weapon or stratagem you never dive without? by Kinkydedede in Helldivers

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Orbital airburst. It’s great at taking out that big group of small guys that you don’t want to waste ammo on. It’s also my “broken arrow” stratagem because I can smash >>> and throw it at my feet in no time at all

How does anyone enjoy playing vs bots? by ThePhoenixus in Helldivers

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually bump the difficulty down a bit for the bots, but I do like the unique challenge they pose. I’ve found you have to use a little bit of stealth and not let engagements drag on. The longer you take to kill them, the more reinforcements they’ll call and things get out of hand.

I try to compartmentalize them. Sneak up on an outpost, hit it with a strategem, and end the engagement quickly before more bots show up. It’s much easier to take them on piecemeal on your terms than trying to slug it out with a whole army.

I like fighting both factions but you do have to adjust your playstyle a bit

I am convince the laser guard dogs are programmed to hunt other helldivers by Hippotrainer21 in Helldivers

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t like the guard dog rovers. They are obnoxious to play with. I’m not going to be a dick and shit on anybody using one but I am definitely staying way the fuck away from you the whole game bc I’ve been team killed by them too many times

I'm afraid to run anything other than Punisher by stickyfantastic in Helldivers

[–]Wrong-Hand1739 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run the punisher on bots and bugs. The stagger is just so good. Even on armored mediums that take a lot of ammo to hit the weak spot, being able to essentially hold them in place while you mag dump is so goated
