My favorite part about the gatling sentry is that like all other sentries it focuses on the larger enemies such as bile titans and chargers despite not being able to penetrate their armour.

Airburst Strike is low key S tier against bugs. Throw that sucker on every breach you see and everything but the bile titans be getting mulched. I'm the only one I ever see run it, and I can consistently get 200+ more kills than my squadmates with it.

The AR Guard Rover NEEDS medium armor pen, because its just wasting ammo. It would make it viable but still not even close to broken

Another busting thing for supply pack is that if you use all of the supplies for your friends, you dont need to supply yourself before taking the resupply. It refills both the normal supply AND the backpack. So unload those grenade pistols like they are a true support weapon and have fun ALWAYS being topped off.

Autocannon sentry claps cheeks for days. With good placement it can mow down multiple Titans and Chargers, plus it takes aggro from you and the homies. Been crutching on it since AH made the Quasar fire only once every leap year.

Omega underrated is the Melee, I'd bet at least half the people who play the game have ever even pushed the melee button. You can parry the Hunter jump with a melee, Hunter flying at you just clock it in the head and it will stagger back then you just pop a quick dome. Little automaton bots also die in 2 and the melee doesn't alert enemies to you. If you're playing stealth you can kill small bots before they can alert their allies. You're able to sneak into bases and as long as there isn't anything bigger than a small bot between you and the objective you can get in completely undetected, actually incredible for Strategem Jammers. It's niche as hell but it's amazing in the right situations. Another underrated weapon is the Redeemer in single fire mode. If you need a weapon that can just kill the small guys it's pretty amazing, pairing it with an unruly weapon like the Eruptor, Jar 5 or Slugger which isn't very good against the small units is great. It's just an extremely reliable weak headshot weapon that can kill infinite small bots, Scavengers and Hunters. I bet most people use the Redeemer in full auto mode to burst down medium tier units like Meat Saws and Brood Commanders but using it like the basic pistol is extremely underutilized and can filter out the Stalwart in more builds than not. Smokes against Bots is also really underutilized. The secret is to throw it when you're next to a LOS blocker then duck behind the sight blocker and run away, pairing it with stealth armor will let you escape so many situations.

I’ve been using recoilless rifle since I unlocked it, still using it on most missions and I’m lvl 125. Such a fun weapon to use, and it’s so powerful. Really strong having an anti tank shot every 3 ish seconds in d9 for both bots and bugs. Pairs really well with sentries (specifically Gatling sentry) too since you can take out all the big stuff while the turret does the rest. Does require practice though to get the positioning optimized.

I think the eagle strafing run is also an underdog against bugs. It definitely needs more charges (absolutely criminal it has less than cluster) but it's super versatile because of how precise it is. There's a lot of situations where a cluster bomb would need to kill your teammates or yourself to hit the bugs but the strafing run can be spammed every encounter without friendly fire and in the right situation it can really thin out hordes of bugs. Especially effective against both types of spewers since they're such big targets.

You know what's crazy? Orbital Airburst Strike cooldown was 75sec on release, along with Gas Strike, they were my two main strats all the time, then they nerfed Airburst to 100sec and I leave it, now it's 120sec, and it never got mentioned anywhere in a single patch note.

Autocannon Sentry is amazing against bots. Takes out hulks and mediums consistently. Just hope there isn't a dropship for it to waste rounds on tho lol. No idea what I would ever pick rocket sentry for, it just doesn't punch hard enough.

The main thing you need to learn with the autocannon sentry is *range*. The damn thing can take out chargers and bile titans in quick succession, as long as it gets the 5 seconds it needs to aim at them. It's not ideal if the bugs get to it, but if you can keep it safe long enough for it to get it's cannon on target it can take out up to 4 bile titans in about 20 seconds. If you manage to set one up in advance it can do some serious work. It's an excellent ambush tool. As for the gatling sentry: The thing about sentries is that they're more than just bug killing. They also draw aggro. Which can give you the breathing room needed to get a situation under control. They also overpenetrate small size bugs I think, so they may be more effective in more enemy dense situations. Plus, they're excellent against the most important bug type to keep under control: Hunters. The advantage it has over the tesla tower is that it can do all that without being an extreme liability to the team. The reason why I don't prefer the JAR against bots is simple: Range matters. The bots are most effective at medium range. So that's the range you don't want to fight them at. That's also the range you use a JAR at.

They really should just make the MG turret be an HMG turret instead.

Guard Dog needs to be able to resupply half ammo off of ammo packs. Needing resupply pickups is too feels bad, will never be picked over rover sadly 😞 Oh shit! I had no idea Airburst could kill Chargers! Pro tip: Airburst will kill Bile Titan if the back armor is stripped (big hole in the back armor with orange guts showing)

I swear by the eagle strafing run. It's different from all others in that it's angled away from you and not perpendicular. This means that it's good with softening up and clearing out groups of enemies that are chasing you. Get them through a choke and it thins out the mooks easy-peasy. Even takes down Dominators occationally. I very commonly throw that thing at my own feet when getting swarmed, jump onto my back and watch the strafe as I reload.

As someone who has been using Ammo Backpack since launch, I have a few gameplay tips. 1, be greedin'. Don't go handing out Refills off of the HUD, because the HUD's broken and doesn't actually display proper information after the first refill. If an ally uses the "Need ammo" callout or asks for it in VC or TC, go ahead and hand one out, even when using the HMG you will have more than enough to go around, so long as you only give to those who need it. 2, be frugal. When with the squad, be sure to have an empty node on the pack before you touch the Resupply call-in's nodes, you refill both your ammo and a backpack node off of a single resupply call-in's node, effectively double dipping on the ammo you recieve. 3, be shootin'. You will not run out of ammo in fights, almost ever. Keep the pressure up. Ignore ammo counts and mag dump pretty much every compound you come across, and be sure to refill your magazines between every fight, no matter how many bullet's you've actually fired, because a full mag is better than saving 30 bullets in your HMG or 2 grenades in your GL. 4, be stimmin'. You have 8 extra stims on your back, so make use of them whenever possible. Always stim back to full. When sprinting across the map, take damage somehow and pop a stim when your stamina bottoms out to fully refill it instantly and have infinite stamina for a short duration. 5, be nadin'. You have 8 extra grenades on your back, so you best be tossing them. Take impacts if your build lack a good strider-killer, take smokes and stealth for minutes at a time, take stun to play the game on easy mode, seriously stuns are so strong with this pack because you can basically toss them with impunity. GL or Grenade Pistol allows you to still preform essential HELLDIVER tasks like nests and fabs, and if you haven't tried using GL as a primary with the Ammo Pack, I HIGHLY recommend, GL refills both it's mags off of one node, meaning you can haul around some 120 or so Grenades at a time, and it's so consistent for taking out striders you can bring the instant-win stun grenades as your throwable.

I switched to recoilless after the quasar nerf and I actually like it more, the reload animation cancels make it more involved to use

I use the Orbital Airburst all the dang time. One of my favorites. Placed correctly it will also take out hulks and tanks if enough of the splash hits the heat vents. Especially if you trick tanks into getting stuck. And I really just love how damn dangerous it is.

Part of the reason the supply backpack is slept on is because it doesn't "make sense". It basically gives you an extra supply pack from the resupply pod. By carrying an empty backpack, your helldiver gets double the grenades/ stims, and ammo from the same pack. It makes zero sense physically and it's not something a player would expect without being told about it or using the supply backpack themselves.

Love the orbital airburst but sadly some planets have the accuracy modifier that make it far more dangerous to your team and often just get zero value.

The secret for gatling sentry is to throw it really far in front of you and kite the bugs in front of it, also pretty good for killing bots at long range and getting them to focus the sentry so you can flank them. Solo helldive with gatling and autocannon sentry a lot and I think its a fun playstyle

AC sentry is goated, using it almost every time on bug missions. Has to be positioned right because if anything is near it ever its fuckin dead. Its got massive range tho, it can take extra BTs and Chargers off your back if you give it space to breathe, clear some of the chaff so the targeting doesnt do dumb shit and ideally the elevation that was mentioned. It can also kill dropships if you get lucky with the angle and it hits an engine, not consistent tho. I generally dont run it against bots because all it takes is one rocket, havent tried it with the fixed sentry health tho. Mostly I just like it because its an autocannon tho.

On the sentries I personally run the Auto Cannon heavily. Even though like you said it tends to kill itself, get overrun, or shoot at the least important target, but when it gets put in a good position with some range it is on like Donkey Kong. It will wreck everything and anything short of Bile Titans that can't be staggered and tend to charge it down. But it can and will absolutely still wreck a titan if it's given a chance and a bit of range. I like to wing it off a ways as I'm being chased to unload on my pursuers or just simply as a distraction to draw enemies away as I bail and run. Or toss it on the rim of a large nest or out a bit from a bot base to position it to start unloading on stuff before I go in. When I hear and see that thing start hammering into something it's just so satisfying. But like you said it can also be infuriating all to often such as when I wing it off to the side somewhere and a massive patrol spawns right next to it and obliterates it or draws it's attention away from the Titan or Chargers that are hot on my heels lol.

Supply backpack with light medic armor and the flamethrower is awesome against the bugs. I didn’t realize how good it was until about a week ago. Now I take it on Automaton and bug missions.

Love the in-video visual timestamps of the weapons, very clever

Currently I'm running an MG-43 for support with a rover drone for bugs and supply pack against bots. I love how easily it shreds low and medium enemies.

This video is really humorous, just what I needed to get through this shift

I love the Gatling barrage. I’ve killed Biles and chargers with it after missing a full blast from a 500KG and only doing partial damage and only cracking armor. It’s also great for small enemies and it only takes 80 seconds to charge. But you need stuns for chargers. But with 6 stun grenades it awesome even in helldive. I get most people prefer air burst but the Gatling barrage can come back like 40 seconds sooner which makes it my preferred strat. I’ve been running 500KG, orbital Gatling, shield gen backpack, Flamethrower, sickle, grenade pistol, and stun grenades. With the light armor that gives 6 grenades It’s really unconventional but super effective.

You are positioning your autocannon sentry atrociously in that first clip. The other clips are better, but note that sentries all have a range of roughly 70 meters (~100 for mortars) so they should be much farther back. Also rocket sentries have the damage equivalent of a mech rocket. Aka not very good. I'd prefer if the rocket sentry had a much slower firerate and a bit less ammo, but launched EAT rockets. It might not need the volley of 2 if they made that change, but they should keep it so that it can perform anti air against the bots. (Though if 2 EATs to the body of a dropship don't drop it, they should force the dropship to die to a single volley) TLDR; sentries have way more range than you'd expect, you can place them well before engaging & rocket sentry needs a buff/rework.

I've had some pretty good results with the Gatling sentry. It's just the same as all sentries where the spawns and placement really dictate it's effectiveness. I've had plenty of drops of the Gatling Sentry where it's killed over 50 enemies, but also plenty of drops where it kills like 10 enemies and gets overrun by Brood Commanders and taken down

Recoilless has reload stages now too. Meaning you can interrupt the animation once you pull out the spent shell (?) and hear the sound, and when you commence reloading, that stage is already done with. Nifty

Pairing the supply pack with the grenade launcher is one of my favorite kits. Mob control for days.

The only instance of me using a 500kg is on those missions with one less stratagem slots. Otherwise I go with airstrike for dealing with hordes and the occasional charger, as well as sometimes finishing off bile titans, and the railcannon strike to reliably kill heavy armor enemies. Quasar or EAT is a pretty nice option to fill up the loadout if you want to go all in on the tank killer build. Just grab a breaker or some other crowd clear primary

Supply back is an insanely good backpack against bugs, coming from a hell commander. It's slept on because you get it so early then forget when you start unlocking the others. I rarely see anyone run it anymore. More stims = more survivability More ammo = more horde clearing for ammo-hungry guns More nades = faster horde clearing or more survivability/utility by using stun nades 2 for 1 uses when you refill from a resupply pod. You're not slowed down by regrouping to share the resupply pod. Constant uptime on supplies means you run away less, clear bug nests and onjectives faster. You don't need the shield or rover if you know how to kite bile spit, dodge attacks, parry (hunters) and prevent yourself from being overwhelmed. Jetpack is nice style points and mobility, but unless you're that guy that runs from bug breaches and leaves the squad to fight (viable strat, not hating this) then you're gonna drain time looking for ammo crates or resupplying. Supply backpack with an aggressive playstyle is pretty much my go-to these days

About the recoiless rifle, if you can do consistent animation cancels, you can lower the reload time down to about 3s

What happened to the ship module that reduced placed sentries by 100 seconds? Am I overlooking or did it get removed?

you can also cancel a bit as you're pulling out the used recoiless shell

You have awaken mine eyes toward the Airburst Strike, good sir. I shall give it a try posthaste.

I tend to run airburst most big missions. It can be a bit sketchy with scatter mod. I like the jetpack, I think it just needs a few secs, 20s to like 15s, quicker jump cooldown, and to shoot while flying and it's in a great spot. Some of these things like airburst and HMG not receiving some ship upgrades for some odd balancing reason hurts them.

I just started revisiting the HMG Emplacement oddly enough, and man am I addicted. Pops them Biley bois like crazy!

Autocannon sentry shreds against bugs with correct placement. You have to anticipate when you'll need it, and place it far from a fight for it to cover you/be a safe spot to fall back to. It can and will kill multiple bile titans if you defend it. I bring it every mission against bugs. If its suiciding on you more than clearing the screen of heavies, you need to get better with your placement of it.

I'm in a love/hate relationship with the 500kg. I have literally headshotted bile titans with it and they lived. I've landed them directly under titans while they are *not* spitting, just walking around so no damage reduction from the spit animation, and they lived. A few weeks ago I was one-shotting titans left and right with it, and since the last patch/MO i've been lucky if it only takes two.

Shoutout to the orbital gatling barrage, my go-to fast and always available bug option for breaches, POIs, nests, objectives,everything

I was trying out the rail gun on bugs since i only started playing post railgun nerf and ive been enjoying it, the one thing i was struggling with was bile titans mainly cuz im ass at figuring out the 500 timing. Decided to run eats inplace of the 500 and been liking that immensely more. Also like running it with the jar, grenade pistol and supply pack with airstrike as my final stratagem and its been my favorite loadout as of recently for bugs

I think the guard dog with a machinegun is a underdog.

Iv been running a bile titan/charger killer load out last few days. 500kg, Precision Strike (both of these 1 shot a BT), Airburst strike for bug breaches and the recoilless rifle.

The orbital railcannon seems to target Brood Commanders first, too. For some reason the auto-targeting of stratagems puts them ahead of Bile Titans.

I found that the tesla sentry really shines with the rocket sentry but it covers both of the sentries weakness

Shield gen is extremely usefull against automatons due to its extremely low cooldown. Inside it you can deal with small targets with your trusty cluster airstrike and then finish off hulks easly because they will stay steady firing to your shield as you pop their heads. I even use it as a decoy as enemies prioritize deployables and the shield will take a good amount of aggro before getting destroyed. Deploy it on a high spot and melee enemies will not reach it and will remain stuck until a ranged unit destroys it or it wears off.

The supply backpack is great. It takes guns that are good but hungry for ammo like the scorcher and lets you use them constantly without worry. You can also go absolutely insane with the flamer and grenade launchers when you have 5 times the ammo. The resupply stratagem also fills one of your backpack slots so it last even longer than it looks

The Gatling sentries are good with the servo assisted throw, You can toss it near friends in trouble if you are not able to get over there. Has 75m sight excellent with hills. And particularly helpful with Shriekers acting as a flack cannon. Most of the sentries have pretty crazy range too.

The cluster airburst strike works pretty well against bots, too! Reliably kills devastators, and regularly kills hulks because the shot lands on the back.

A note on the supply pack, when taking a normal supply u get the stim *and* the use of the pack so is triple value not just dubble

I've never seen airburst take out a charger, it even says its medium armor penetrating on the stats Also if your using the incendiary breaker watch out for friendly fire, a tiny shot will light them on fire and that can kill them almost immediatly Its a cone of death for allies

Jump jet works really grwat with charge weapons like arc thrower and quasar. You can charge while in the air to immediately counter attack something your running from. Also works great if u do stratagem inputs while flying.

wait if you can synergise rockets with RG, that means you can use teamwork right? does that 1-2-combo you did with EATs and RG work with other rocket launchers too?

That bile titan kill with the pistol grenade is sick

Supply Pack is also great with the Grenade Launcher. Really lets you spam it. Grenade spam will kill just about anything, but is super efficient at clearing big mobs of enemies.

the turrets so well at being decoys at least or to corral enemies to an area... now that im saying that i wonder if you could use it to line up enemies into a conga line to then napalm or some other air strike

Recoilless rifle is quite underrated imo. You can just whip it out, instantly kill a heavy enemy and then reload it later. Its staged reload lets you reload in 2 quick parts and you can even skip the third bit of the reload. It can 2 shot bile titans too. Its very fun and my main support weapon against bugs and bots alike.

Advice on turrets, best way I’ve found to use them is alongside another. E.g. the battling and the matching gun. Separately, they’re ok but you’ve got to be cautious with how you use them/ defend them from being blown up. Used in tandem, the mg sorts the medium armoured enemies whilst the gat sorts out the hoards. It’s not the most versatile way to play but it’s definitely a fun way. Also they’re not great against bots, they’ll blow them up in seconds :/

Does the ballistic shield actually protect you from melee? In a defense mission I was in, I ran out of bullets on everything and I had to get to extract. A hulk swung the saw at me and I saw sparks flies on my back. Then it did again 3 times by a hulk saw, and a raider ground punch. Berserker saw also made sparks as I went past their attack. Some of the melee do damage of course, but it seem to deflect melee attack too. Left with 0 death from many close call that game. I want to try using it on bugs next time, see if it does block some melee attack. Since it blocked some bot melee.

I've been filtered by the Airburst a few times due to its slight variations in hitzone between each burst lmao

I find that autocannon sentry works immensely well vs bugs if placed pre-emptively before you reach objectives or tossed far from your location. As in, toss it to your right but the lead the bugs left. The thing has insane range and it can kill multiple chargers and even bile titans at range as well as mow down way more enemies than gatling sentry with the AoE. Like seriously, just toss that thing out in open where there's no enemies nearby about 50-100 meters away from an objetive - as long as it has line of sight it will absolutely tear and shred any patrol that might be heading your way for as long as it has ammo, as well as clear out the objective area at range. In multiplayer it can also be used in the same manner against teammates that just got bug breached. It's got enough ammo to kill two bile titans and leave the third one somewhat injured if it fires at absolutely nothing else - which is a ton of damage. If it's tossed when a swarm is already on you though, yeah it's not gonna do anything.

Not saying Minigun is perfect by any means, but compared to most air strikes and orbitals the Minigun will rack up more kills more reliably while drawing aggro away from you, while compared to the Tesla Tower it has nearly 7 times it's range and you can stand right on top of it and be perfectly safe, while even with the Arc armor it'll take nearly a fifth of your HP off with a single hit.

I'm a huge fan of the low cooldown orbitals. Precision, air burst and gas are lots of fun to spam.

My friend tries to get the whole squad to run arc resist all the time. It is cool as hell to have a full team of tesla towers, blitzers and arc throwers tho

what I love about airburst the most is that it's the easiest stratagem in the game to call down, even in a panic, for how effective it is

Outstanding video! Thanks for the great content.

the gatling sentry is not meant to carry you, it's meant to provide cover in times of need. Like if you have an army after you, you can plop it down to provide cover fire and as a distraction, allowing you to escape (bugs and bots will always focus it and ignore you). It runs out quickly but the firerate has saved my ass many times when i was sure i'd get pwned by some bugs or bots. Even better is that sentries won't call in reinforcements, or bug breaches. So if you see a patrol and want to take it out without alerting enemies, the gatling sentry will do that easily unless theres a charger/titan.

Autocannon sentry fires "beyond visual range" almost. Make sure you throw it far away but with a clear line of sight and it mops up

When I am fighting bugs I always bring the recoilless rifle for bile titans and chargers. It's really good.

You are quickly becoming my favorite Helldiver KZfaq.

The autocannon turret is one of my favorite things to bring in with bugs. When I'm assaulting I'll throw it to my forward-right or left and then go in from the front or flank to the opposite side. I start the fight and all the bugs focus on me while the gun starts pummeling them. Thankfully, usually it targets the charger. Sometimes I'll toss it where I'm standing then run into an area and let it cover me. Sometimes it might blast me but, I'm usually aware enough not to stand in the direct line of it's firing solution. Can you do better with a stratigem? Yeah maybe. But the range and it hits hard enough to just be an extra gun that helps along side with a laser backpack and sickle to gun down a bunch of bugs. Against bots? It's . . . more like you want to lure the bots into it but it's not gonna do great honestly since it's more than likely gonna get targeted and overrun even with fire support.

Airburst needs three thing to become very good: 1 - A 4th shot with the upgrade to barrages (give it a barrage tag if needed); 2 - Longer window between shots, so that it becomes a true bug breach killer; 3 - Tighter spread around the edges of the map, cuz it can completely miss hordes of enemies. Gas needs to be fixed for non-host, just like fire. As it is now, enemies can just shrug it off if you aren't the host. I'd also settle with a radius and duration upgrade. EMS Strike: As it is now, it is inferior to EMS mortars in every possible way. It needs a wider area of effect and it needs to stop all enemies, including Bile Titans and Factory Striders. Make it work on massive enemies and now we have a reason to pick it over EMS mortar. Autocannon sentry I just throw it as far away from the action and usually on high ground if possible. But I would like it proritize bigger targets and not the small bugs around me....which it seems to prefer. Rocket Sentry: same for autocannon. The tooltip says it targets large enemies, but it doesn't. It prioritizes small enemies and will completely ignore the Bile Titan right in front of it. I think it shouldn't even target small bugs, no matter what.

I know airburst is great against groups but i wasn't aware it kills chargers so effectively!

Orbital Airburst Strike is badly slept on. It's one of the most consistent area-clearing tools in the entire game on a 2-minute base cooldown. Yes it doesn't help with heavies, but by weeding out so much chaff, it buys you a ton of breathing room to use your tools for killing those. Just chuck it at a bug push and watch kill count go brrr. Orbital Precision Strike gets written off because other burst damage stratagems are easier to use, but if you can break the skill floor for using it properly, its potential is as limitless as a stratagem can have in this game. Being able to delete priority targets in one shot on a 100-second cooldown is crazy. I find that the easiest way to make effective use of it is to use it in tandem with stun grenades and/or armors that either boost stealth or stratagem throwing range. stun a patrol or sneak up on a garrison and use the OPS as your opening shot to pick off the most dangerous target. In open combat it wrecks tanks because of how easy it is to stick them with the orb too.

tried railgun + expendable = very nice, thank you!

The sentry stuff comes down to your placement of them ngl, but I do agree they need a little buff

Walking Barrage is absurdly slept on. Once you get used to how it fires, you are artillery god

I’ve killed bile titans multiple times with airburst strikes. As long as it hits it while it’s emerging from the ground

Precision strike is really nice against bots. Not only can it one shot tanks and hulks, but it can take out detector towers fairly easily. As long as you throw it in the right side so it doesn't bounce it takes them out really consistently.

Love the incendiary breaker.

AC turret is my shit on the bugs, but once I went up to 9 it definitely got a lot harder to use. Not because it works worse, but just because you have bugs coming from more directions and more often when you get bogged down, and it's really difficult to set it up during a fight without it getting instagibbed. If you can see a fight coming and position it well, it absolutely still does gangbusters though, you just have to be way more proactive about it, even going up from just 7.

How do I supply myself when running the Supply Pack? I had no idea it is possible xD

I've killed so many bile titans and chargers, hulks, tanks with the orbital strike. You know, the first one in the game? It's intense. One shots every single one. Unlimited uses, 60 sec cool down. How do you hit anything other than biles? Stun gernade. Biles? timing or you dance underneath it and get it's guts rained on you.

Been rocking the supply pack after they added the last module. Mixed with a nade launcher and i have more explosives than ik what to do with.

I absolutely love the AC sentry, but it has the durability of an ice sickle in summer time. It's definitely a glass cannon.

i saw a comment saying mrs should be effective 55m+ and "every gun is basically a shotgun" (paraphrase), but i couldnt help but notice thats about the detection range on enemies. thats what they should be used for, takin out specific targets to reduce reinforcement calls and such, but they cant do that and are virtually useless. the slugger was the best dmr cuz even unscoped and some skill, you could effectively take down all the targets fast enough to not matter if you're in detection range. the dmr however, you have to scope and slowly take down enemies and body shots would even one shot the weakest of bots, also not far away enough so you get bot drops. i havent played with the updated marksman rifles yet so idk how they feel now.

my fave load out for bugs is recoilless, kg, orbital airburst. 4th is flex based on team load out. Always gets me 400+ on lvl 7, higher for higher difficulty

0:35 I think you are saying when you see "white" in the rifle. Is that immediately after firing you crouch? Could you explain a bit more, this seems to be a very helpful tip.

The Orbital Airburst is now pretty much a Must-Take for me while going against bugs now. It's just so so good at dealing with bug breaches, and the cooldown is low enough that it typically is ready to go for the next one, provided you're not playing like a muppet. The Ballistics Shield is almost always with me during Bot runs, and it's saved my bacon so many times. Even if rockets do send you flying, it minimizes the damage and even more so if you're wearing heavy armor with Fortified. Plus you can pretty much just tank whole hordes of bots so long as you can keep them all in front of you... which can be hard when the game literally spawns a flanking patrol right behind you despite having cleared the area behind you just moments before. It also can protect you when it's on your back and you're running away like an unpatriotic coward

bro got the yap timer on top 😭🙏

I never knew you could resupply the supply pack...

I agree turrets are kinda weak, like we upgraded their turn rate and ammo expecting them to do some work, and they are super weak. AH really need to increase the ammo cap even further I think, because they barely are up a minute. also fix the explosive protection delio, and give the machinegun turret a faster cooldown by like 30 seconds.

Airburst has been my favorite ad clear for a while. Def slept on, but I think most people are afraid of the friendly fire lmao.

Precision strike is great against factory striders. Does a ton of damage and is really easy to kill afterwards

You didn't mention this (maybe you don't know?), but you can use the jump pack when you're crouching, sliding, prone, or diving. It's actually kinda busted when you're getting run down by mobs of hunters that are jumping at you all at once.

Yo my favorite backpack is supply pack, back before railgun nerf I always ran railgun and supply pack and used railgun as a pseudo primary that could do it all even if bile titan and tank kills weren't super effective without ps5 glitch.

I feel all the turrets minus the mortars need a base ammo increase. Even with the ship upgrade they run out too fast.

I believe vitality boost is effectively giving 50 armor rating, because with the armor testing videos I've seen when it's added it pretty much matches the next tier of armor.
