@ivannevarez9174 4 ай бұрын

Tips from lvl 45: Railgun and personal shield are a MUST. CC and delaying the enemy becomes more important than damage output. Heavy armor is a death sentence. Bile Titan takes 3 rail guns to the face. Charger takes 3 to the arm or two and then small arms fire. KILL STALKER NESTS AS SOON AS YOU CAN. They will end your run. And lastly keep moving. Staying in one spot guarantees mission failure.

@@hallow2387Yes nades work, but also the grenade launcher and many orbital/eagle stratagems work too. Best gun is the first Breaker shotgun from the core warbond and best armour is anything light, go with whichever has perks that you like as they are all pretty useful imo.

This is the best warhammer 40k game without being warhammer 40k. This setting is perfect for being a space marine, dropping down on planets to fight tyranids, necrons, orcs or demons. And you could have different space marine chapters as helldivers, ---- bolter, melta weapons etc. When someone pointed this out I was so mad and now I cant unsee it, please Arrowhead, get a collab with Gamesworkshop and make this happen!

@brianhum8765 4 ай бұрын

Change the strategem controls in your settings from WASD to your directional keys so that you can key them in without impeding your movement control. When the fight is at it's nastiest and you need to call stuff in faster than ever, only being able to move in the direction that matches your strategems will get you killed so many times. Dynamic aiming setting is also a real convenient way to just 3rd and 1st person aim by holding/pressing the same aim button (while aiming in 3rd is plenty fine in most situations, even most assault rifles are surprisingly proficient at sniping via tap firing in 1st person at long range).

While you didn't have any unlocked, boosters are an absolute godsend and a tip I would give is to try and prioritize unlocking them as soon as the page they are on becomes available: boosters are equipped in the drop prep screen just like stratagems and they apply to the entire squad. The first one is already useful since it applies both at the start of a mission and whenever someone is reinforcing after getting killed, but there are also other really good ones like the increased stamina capacity + regen combo that makes traversing the map in general as well as, ahem, "tactically relocate" much quicker since you can sprint for longer and more often

The EAT-17 Expendable Anti-Tank actually calls TWO rocket launchers down, not one. You can share it with your friends, or just use two yourself. 70 seconds per call-in is surprisingly short, and unlike the GR-8 Recoilless Rifle, the EAT-ITs don't take up a backpack slot. I'd actually put them about equal in terms of usefulness, but it does depend on the situation.

@sauceinmyface9302 4 ай бұрын

Backpack slot has a lot of competition. The guard dogs and the shield generator are really, really valuable.

@Radintoriov 4 ай бұрын

It's honestly pretty competitive with the recoiless especially when playing solo since in addition to getting two launchers per drop, the quick cooldown makes them expendable for luring patrols away and just disseminating a bunch across the map. Recoiless gets better with other players since with the assisted reload it can be fired incredibly quickly.

@craigfunk3453 4 ай бұрын

I'd certainly use the rockets more against automatons. A tad slow killing a patrol and a dropship got called? Blast that ship out of the sky and take its reinforcements with it. With the bugs I say the rockets mostly have use against chargers and titans to help crack that armor if you can't quite get a consistent line on a weak spot

@Scotland_James 4 ай бұрын

You could fire every rocket from the recoiled launcher before you’re cooldown is done for another 2 expendables

I love the smell of Liber-Tea in the morning! I noticed no tips for Automatons. Tips: Aim for the head. With the exception of tanks and heavy mechs, headshots can kill the rest very quickly (even the ones with shields). The Automaton dropships can be instantly destroyed along with their passenger(s) by hitting one of their 4 thruster pods. Use cover or the Ballistic/Energy Shield equipment. They can save your life if you get caught by a large swarm all firing lasers at you.
