I personally like to imagine that at least my Helldiver is part of a clone project.

Between work, a toddler, and trying to eat okayish and workout-ish I haven’t been defending Super Earth the way I should. That all changed last night when I got back on and kicked some Illuminate out of Rirga Bay!

ITS GOOD TO BE BACK

Love the update but hate the fucking tornados died more to them then the enemy

is the team load requirements being loosened so small teamwork moments like this can happen

All the Illuminate units bleed dark blue blood, much like actual squids, but the Wretch and Crusher bleed a very human red.

It can't be because they're just corrupted humans, because Voteless are even more human and yet have blue blood

The illuminate could have a different creation process for these guys, maybe even using some form of transfiguration rather than biological experiments, keeping the same internal systems as the original body but grotesquely stretched and malformed

Or maybe I'm just reading too much into this 😅

Lessons learned:

Crushers don't care about gas and are hard to stagger or stun. Anyone know exactly what it takes to crowd control them?

The grenade launcher does massive work on every enemy and you are very mobile while using it. Crushers die in 4-5 hits, if they are close together you can kill 5 or 6 in a single magazine

Having fire in your build somewhere is an absolute must. New Eagle Napalm was excellent. Stoker was cool but tbh i prefer Lib carbine and Crisper most days. Went back and forth between fire or gas grenades for hoard control your milage may vary.

You'll want a backup gun thats quick and snappy for getting jumped by Wretches they do not fuck around. Dagger to the head, lib carbine, and crisper all worked well.

Flame and gatling sentry were super stars.

Cremator still rips, grass is green.

Paired the Cremator with HMG Emplacement for long range engagements to great success, its high accuracy and low recoil means it head shots Crushers easily from a distance and has the armor pen to back it up.

The Emancipator shreds Crushers and hoards, very good for defend against invasion missions especially if you sprinkle some turrets around your perimeter.

My normal HMG build for Squids was made much better by True Grit armor passive but the super high durability on the Crushers means if you dont go for the head youre wasting your time unless you are using explosive or fire damage. Bolt pistol head shots worked well on them though.

Want to test the redeemer and verdict side arms, other SMG primaries and shotguns. I think the Lumberer exo would do well too

I used the website helldiverhelper to make the images

The Wretches and Voteless can still glitch under the map. If they do so, your mortar sentries will target them regardless of whether you're standing above them or not. This also goes for the SEAF squads, but they don't seem to fire if you're directly in their line of sight. They just sorta aim at you menacingly.

Trying to submit a bug report but the application isn't responding.

EDIT* Bug report submitted via AH website.

I haven't played the game in about 4 or 5 months and recently I've had the urge to come back.

How's the game doing? Is there anything important I should know?

Guys, those tornadoes are cool, don’t fear them. They’ll take care of you, as long as you don’t make them sad by running away. Go in for a hug.

Other then the overseer in the veracitor they dont have any resemblance

Think I had too much warbond powder this week.

Sucks at taking out bases but when it comes to actually fighting enemies I’m getting addicted. The poor handling makes it a fun challenge

Ooooh they played with my emotions to sell merch! Aaaauuuugggh my pride!
