Helldivers 2 How to Beat Helldive Difficulty Guide!

[@DTA316DTA]

Dropping samples at the extract point os a good idea for any difficulty level. One thingg to add though, if your team passes by at the same time have everyone but one drop samples. Have the one guy pick them all up before dropping and all your samples will now be consolidated into 1 pick up. If you pass by alone, pick up any other samples while there before dropping for the same reason. Easier to grab one single pickup with all samples than run around picking up multiple, especially if your extract is under heavy fire. Oh and when Pelican-1 does show up, the sample holder should enter first.

[@andrewcollier3495]

I tried doing this and placed all the supersamples at the extraction point. I was then kicked and I presume the samples stolen by the rest of the team. I now always keep them 😬

[@Article15Angling]

We do that mid match too. If you move in 2 man teams only one dude should have samples so you don't have to back track if you get split up

[@coldestfuture7049]

Nah man, 3 of 4 times samples simply disappear shortly before extraction. That's from my experience

[@Robbins2324]

I would say don't expect to drop in and be safe. There is always people around. So run off and find a safe spot to call in your stuff. Also don't stand and fight, shoot, move, and communicate. Never stop moving, I run up to a bot Fab and throw an eagle air at it, and run off. With the heavy bases, I throw the orbital laser at it and run off. If I need to finish it off, I'll come by later and do so. Fighting equals death keep moving and know you'll win the fight before taking it. Extraction is hell unless everyone lays down and hide.

one big piece of advice that I've recommended with pretty much every game is to play consciously. Go in lose the mission but remember why you did. Oh this primary weapon wasn't killing small enemies fast enough, I don't have much in my kit to deal with striders, this stratagem I brought is not performing in the way I was hoping it would. Learn from the mistakes you make and play helldive, from there you will adjust your play and loadout piece by piece until you figure out what setups work for you.

[@PCBuilderChannel]

@@gutlesswarrior Haha! I'm already in your games, completing your objectives. :)

[@misty1226]

An another tip you should have mention is, drop weak bots first if you have to engage, because if at least one of them is alive, they will call for a bot drop and you know how it feels like. And if they are all dead, no matter how many of others left, there wont be any reinforcements. Its also possible to just hide at LZ and just peacefully wait until extraction arrives. Just dont leave pods with what ever it has inside, because they will see it.

[@wizsword.]

been playing helldive for about a week now and in all honestly you can use any stratagem just bring an anti tank weapon and if you feel confident split off from your team and do the main objective

[@Mythoatissodry]

I do the same thing cuz I feel like the enemy spaces out more when your team is in different parts of the map

[@thestarhopper]

i do the same, especially for bugs. i'll run light armour and run around the far side of the map, clearing out nests, tacticals, POIs, etc. while the rest of the squad focuses on the main objective and thus absorbs the majority of the bug breaches. once they've triggered a breach, i have a window to move without fear that i'll end up being swamped with enemies, and because they're probably all together they should be able to handle whatever comes out. on a good run i can clear out my entire side of the map without dying once. this tactic is also why i like the localisation confusion booster from cutting edge, because it increases the 'cooldown' before another breach/drop can be called.

[@atheos.1383]

The biggest tip about helldive is that YOU CONTROL THE SPAWN RATE. Basically by doing everything you just listed. Know when to engage, when to retreat, when to avoid, and how to clear fast and efficiently.

they are technically the most elite soldiers Super Earth has, which is why it's so funny that missions can go from making you feel like a squad of commandos, dropped inside enemy territory to sabotage their war efforts, to making you feel like a total goon squad thrown into occupied/contested territory in the hopes that one of you will press the right button on the computer and launch the nuke

If you play the game because you want to kill as many enemies as possible, THAT'S FINE. You just need to acknowledge that you are actively choosing not to play the actual objective.

I will say jump pack and explosive resistant heavy armor, are super good together. Think of the jumpack as a "super dive" spam it all the time especially going downhill at all. will also allow you to jump, in drop hellbomb, jump out

[@natomiltary4573]

As a Hell diver-Helldiver I can confirm boots on the ground nonstop movement is the best way to handle most situations. Keep moving and when you engage make to sure prioritize the enemies that can call in dropships or summon bug holes, for robots the bots with the red swords are the first ones to call in for backup, but all bot infantry can call in back up which actually makes them a higher priority than tanks or hulks especially when engaging a patrol or a new area that you were previously undetected in. For bugs, scouts are the first to call for backup and then bile titans, thats right. Bile titans will call for backup usually when they first see you. Broodmother bugs also call in reinforcements but not as often and all the tiny green spitters also call in reinforcements.

[@thestarhopper]

helldive is my go-to for bugs and i think one of the biggest things you need to keep in mind is that you don't need to fight everything you see. even if it's just a few smaller enemies, unless you know you can take them all out quickly (and preferably without using a stratagem, because you ideally want to save those for bigger groups and elites), being too slow can lead to having a breach or drop called in, and the tide of battle can very quickly turn against you. also in terms of loadout, you can generally run whatever you want, so long as you understand what it is that you have and thus what your strengths and weaknesses are. for example, i usually run medium armour against bots, which gives me more speed than heavy armour but also makes me slightly more fragile, so i know that i can't take fights out in the open and should play from cover at all times. for primary and secondary weapons, of course some are just better than others, but for armour and stratagems it's less black-and-white, and if you know how to use it you can take whatever you want and do fine.

[@timekillerjavi3929]

During extractions don't shoot the bots just hide behind things and prone they will search for you but as long as you don't get caught it's easy to extract

[@stevenobrien7686]

I started dropping samples on extract and it is such a good idea if you can swing it. Level 8 is my usual comfort zone. It feels more well balanced for me. But Stylosa you’re right it always baffles me even on level 8, how many people bring builds that are just not gonna be effective against the faction or mission type. You don’t always have to bring META, but you damn well better bring stuff that is effective and appropriate to give you and your team a fair shot at the mission.

[@TalosEscanor]

lvl9 is not that bad anymore. Split for fast and ez mission. Bot drop spawns only for 1 guy at a time.

[@Spectacular_Insanity]

Now that patrols no longer randomly spawn on top of you, it's a lot less frustrating.

[@Spectacular_Insanity]

Running light armor against Automatons is fine, but you do need to be more cognizant of your surroundings and utilize cover when it's available and use your mobility to seize advantageous positions. Heavy armor is definitely nice if you're struggling to avoid damage (some maps are really open with very little cover) or if you want a greater margin of error.

[@ionmedicaldesigns8122]

We actually started dropping in on an objective. 4 hellpod missiles coming in on targets and get 1 task done right away. Then, call in gear. Works very well for us and it’s fun! It’s about a 90% chance you’re going to get attacked immediately anyhow so why not jump in and get after it!

[@Romanian901]

I recently started running quasar, ballistic shield, defender smg and grenade pistol with heavy armour. It's not a jack of all trades but it's wonderful for taking out the devastators and troopers while quasar can kill cannons, hulks and tanks, nades for striders. Preferably never go in alone because striders and rockets can still fuck you up

[@joshizfly]

This sounds nice, I like to defender too. Bonus points for explosion resist

[@RQS321]

I use the shield gen strategem for helldive difficulty. I tend to join people mid game and the first thing I do is up up left right left right. Because I know for a fact i'm getting swarmed the moment I land. And ususally it gives me enough time to get everything I need set up.

[@ScoundrelzNTwK]

Helldive is a fighting retreat through the objectives.

[@Acadeimos]

Treat Helldive difficulty with caution. Less running around and engaging patrols willy-nilly, and more ‘choosing’ when to fight whenever you can. Don’t fight bot drops if you can avoid it too.

[@ac2jones]

Being able to snuff out a bug breach just like shooting down a dropship would be cool

[@trulsrohk1]

bots and bugs play fairly different. While some of the tips and tricks here apply to both, me and my buddies default to 9s for bugs and you need to move when you need to move, but you don't need to avoid fights nearly so much if you're decent, decent loadouts, and know what you're doing. We often just engage and kill whatever we come across. Total bug kills for a 40 minute session for the 4 of us are often well north of 1200. Have seen some discussion of it, but at least for the bugs, if you kill basically everything you come across, extraction is usually relatively easy and can just stand ground at the extract and kill off anything that might crop up without too much issue

[@BeastOrGod]

Stun Grenade, two AMR or Auto shots to the face, Hulks dead. Ez.

[@Noobish_Camper55]

Abusing the despawn mechanic of running across the map and back can save a helldive fast, especially against bots who are in general slow. Wasting a couple minutes in a 40 minute mission to avoid a spiral into defeat is worth. The only downside with the strat is if you public lobby queue. In that case expect to lose half your games with the empty headed randoms that speed run deaths.

[@TheStrayHALOMAN]

I love playing hell dive so long as my team isn't near me or making too much noise. I play like rambo and ambush enemy communists by using hit and run and ending fights within seconds... I hate bombers and splash damage since I can just use my auto canon and smooth moves and normally I've killed everything before my team mates eagle comes in and team kills me. Now I just need the devs to add claymore mines and other ambush equipment... ALSO a silenced pistol and SMG like the ones from Halo ODST... like the Knight could have a silenced variant called the Silent Knight.

[@SteveMorris-c2r]

Been trying to get into 7-9 but I seem capped at 6. I have been maxed out on everything but super samples since March. I have no stable squad so Im stuck with randos most of the time. Every time I jump into a 7 things get weird. Either the squad has no coordination and everyone scatters or I get weird connection issues. I for the most part use all of these tips as best I can but I guess nothing replaces allies who know what they are doing. Side notes, you can never ping targets enough. Pinging targets gives your squad info and in poor visual conditions helps with longer ranged shots. I like the eagle rocket pods against bots. It one shots tanks and towers reliably, can one shot hulks if the angle is right and pairs well with the AMR.

[@slayzet4293]

Just keep trying diff 7 and either go as 4 or 2 pairs. If its 3 and one guy is wandered off, its good idea to follow him to make pairs. Unless that guy is too far then forget it. I also noticed that players under lvl20 tend to fight everything so keep that in mind. Also try to fill in what your team is lacking in strategems. However I do not recommend you to use support weapon you are not familiar with as it can hold you back. For example, i main AMR and when i noticed that other 3 were bringing 3 AC, i thought we needed quasar so i swapped to it. Turns out they cant aim for shit and hulks everywhere, devastators murdering us, i dont knoe how to use quasar effectively beside being aa. Dont be like me, bring ur partner. If i had AMR, we probably wouldnt have that problem as i would have sniped them.

[@RandomCivilians]

Maybr for bugs, but none of this is true for bots in my experience. I always run stealth armor, sniper, jumppack, and orbitals. You can easily sneak your way into major objectives, drop the hellbomb, and jumppack out before any aggro or bot drops come. And sniping is essential. Can easily scout objective locations and ping patrols from miles before theyre anywhere near you so you know if you should lay low or dip. Plus, if youve got the aim, everything goes down in one or two shots in their crit spot besides heavies, so youre not wasting ammo. So you can just post up in a sniper nest for ages before you have to move, but more than likely wipe the enemy. Orbitals especially like the walking laser can clear entire objectives without getting near, because the jumppack can yeet strategems if you throw at the top of the jump. I run this infiltrator scout all the time and leave generally with all maun and side objectives and with 0-2 deaths on average. Helldive isnt really hard, it's knowing when to fall back and hoping your team knows when as well. The only time when we fail is when im trying to stealth in to get rid of the flying bot spawner, but they pull its attention anyway and spawn too many fliers for us to escape or reinforce from. Seriously, you see someone crouching/belly crawling, you best do the same. Do go in Rambo and screw things up for everyone.

Eh, that first bits not entirely true, taking fights in Helldive is entirely possible and sometimes even necessary. You can absolutely stand your ground with your squad if you work together properly. The key skill you need to develop though is a constant assessment of the situation, knowing when to pull out and when to push through is very important, and if you aren't able to determine that then you're going to have a bad time. Taking proper positions and funneling your enemies is also important, getting surrounded can very easily make your situation untenable if you let that escalate.

[@cableitoh01]

Will I still keep all the samples even I fail the mission?

[@Sarinadragon]

You will not, you have to extract to keep the samples collected.

[@LordLeif1220]

Okay, not even a minute in, and I'm going to have to disagree with you. Your first tip shouldn't be to keep moving, it should be to end engagements quickly. The second tip is if your finding yourself and your squad in those prolonged engagements and you are getting instantly killed on reinforcements, GET ORGANIZED! Think of the engagement as a large circle on the map. Find a place on the edge of the engagement where you can all group and take cover. From there you can being to disengage. Having one or two stand and fight will allow for the others to break away from the fight. Then either they fall in glorious battle and get reinforced far away or have an epic tale of heroic valor for later. And don't worry about your samples you can go back for them later. Of note this works for extraction as long as you have enough time remaining. Which circles back to my first tip.

[@raniasaad8772]

kill as much as you can, when there is too many enemies simply run away

[@wusaint]

[@inflatable2]

I think level 7 suicide is the sweetspot for this game when playing with randoms and you still want/need those pink super samples to unlock stuff.. Any higher requires a coordinated team with players that know how to play this game effictively.. Level 7 also still gives you 3 super samples if you manage to find them, and just 2-3 more on level 8 and 9 Helldive is not worth it imho.. To high risk the extraction will fail and you end up with no samples and just wasted another 45 min of your time..

[@SirEvilestDeath]

You are not playing this game correctly if you do not litter the extraction point with mines and a Tesla tower as well as make sure you collect all the samples and jump into water to drown. How can people keep playing this game and not understand the basics of how to play with others?

It's definitely a problem when the method to be most successful in a game's higher difficulties is to NOT play the game.... I'm hoping they'll still be doing something to fix that and have it so that instead of having cheating spawn stacks, which is so 90s, they'll have difficulty naturally emerge from the initial spawn setup, unit density, and objective locations. Having the difficulty broken right now is fine since it's absolutely more important to fix the more serious issues with crashing! What's rad is the game is tons of fun on just about every level =D

[@kamikeserpentail3778]

That includes commenters who claim your useless for steal thing, when I'm solo destroying a jammer and 2 artillery, or 2 heavy bot bases. I'll stick with the team and blast through patrols or points of interest. But in my opinion that should involve either getting the right angle before attacking, or call ins that nuke the small bots quickly. So many are concerned about fighting 20 hulks, that they stopped bringing stratagem that can't kill heavies. But if my strafing run or cluster bomb kills all of the troopers, all that's left to worry about is that one or two hulks the entire rest of the team brought stuff to deal with. I like stealth it has nothing to do with "meta" But stealth also doesn't mean never killing anything, not to me.

[@ryanpost1446]

@kamikeserpentail3778 all I play is helldive. Never seen 20 hulks at once. Most I've seen is about 5 or 6. But to those who are useful on their own. Is completely different than the weirdos I've found who literally crawl around the map. On helldive I find maybe 3 or 4 out of every 10 games I get those team mates who do no more than exist. They finish a 40 minute mission with 40 kills, 90 shots fired. That kind of player is the one who's absolutely useless and should just play solo but know they cannot make it alone.
