Helldivers 2 Shield Buff is amazing

Hey Jubei here, just want to say thanks for the views, thumbs up and comments! Didn’t honestly expect this video to blow up over the months really makes my day to see new comments!

I was doubtful until you took a knee and went eye to eye with the hulk lol

[@CardboardBoxGod]

Thanks!

[@lohwentao707]

all fine and dandy until a stray rocket devastator snipes you from 500m away

[@PatrickRatman]

eh rockets no longer one shot anymore so as long as you aren't staying in one spot too long or you got the explosive resistance armor you'll be fine.

[@zaniatnik]

@@PatrickRatmanand there is still a chance the shield would suck up most of the damage.

[@robjsmiles]

You guys have to remember that getting ragdolled in front of all the other bots leaves you as a sitting duck. That said new ballistic shield is pretty sick, if you can avoid that

[@PatrickRatman]

@@robjsmiles Thats why you position yourself so if you do get ragdolled it throws you behind cover.

[@kharak6204]

this shield saved me from a direct cannon turret hit somehow, as long as you block in time and the aoe/ragdoll doesn't kill you instead it's stupidly good (it can only take so much damage though, that cannon ruined the shield)

500kg isn't as great as it looks

[@GodBlessTheATF]

500kg AOE should be way larger fr. Insane falloff

[@nickspades69]

@@GodBlessTheATFagreed, it doesn’t have a big horizontal radius at all for the size payload. for some reason most of the killzone on the 500kg is actually vertical, I’m assuming to make sure it damages the hit box on a bile titan.

[@HolysMoly]

thought the exact same thing, radius didnt make sense for a 500KG bomb. Its not a true 500KG bomb, its more like a precision strike that has multiple uses and a fairly decent cooldown for how many uses you get nowadays I run it alongside orbital precision strike, thats pretty much the FASTEST cooldown anti-elite strategem combo. Run stuns, grenade launcher+supply pack, or stuns and ballistic shield +whatever else and bam you are a literal 1 man army 267 hours and only play 9s btw

[@Jman0163]

but it does look great

[@oli_steinn]

500kg placement is key, aoe is plenty big if it hits in the right spot. Learn to drop it where you want accurately, then it becomes fantastic.

[@Figdiogo]

what is this gun? bros taking out a hulk like it's a fucking maggot

[@lawrenceriverside6659]

I think is the defender? The one arm gun from the main warbond, like page 3 or 4? It's not that good actually, is kinda weak and slow compared to others and has a bit of a recoil and no scope but is still way better than any pistol. I always use it with a balistic shield since you only need one hand and yes, i use it when I have to deliver data also, because again it's one handed and better than a pistol. I only use it with automatons tho because I always carry the shield against them. So to recap: not that good, need good aim, but usable with one hand (shield, carrying data)

[@CardboardBoxGod]

Anti Material Rifle, if you hit the eye directly twice it’ll knock out any Hulk!

[@themightykv-5410]

​@@CardboardBoxGodI don't know if it is just me but the Autocannon does it better. It feels much easier to kill them this way with it. Maybe I'm just a bad shot with the Anti-Materiel Rifle?

[@lawrenceriverside6659]

@@themightykv-5410 i think the anti rifle, being a very precise weapon that only lets you aim with the scope, is not very good in close and medium fights because its accuracy focuses on the target and you can't look around in a safe way. Also autocannon is explosive so it can bypass armor. Let's just say rifle is safe from a distance and you have to take your time aiming, autocannon just goes BOOMBOOM very fast and you don't really need to aim but it's better in close to medium distance

[@spaghettiwaffles]

the anti-materiel rifle is known to have misaligned sights. you need to aim for the top left corner of the center square of the reticle to be precise. it throws a lot of people off and think they're missing bc theyre bad when the sights are just wrong

[@romariomejia5396]

Use it every now and the for fun, but not worth. Still buggy, not enough primarys, and doesn't block melee attacks. Add more guns, maybe shield bash or ability to plant it into the ground would be cool.

[@elgnarfowo2678]

Which armor combined the best with the ballistic shield + submachine combo?

[@CardboardBoxGod]

Just my opinion but anything with fortified is nice as it helps with recoil management, I double down on heavy with Fortified and Explosive Resistance as Bots tend to kill you with explosives more often than blaster bolts.

[@elgnarfowo2678]

@@CardboardBoxGod thx for the quick reply 🙏🏼

[@CardboardBoxGod]

@@elgnarfowo2678 you’re welcome!

[@sandwichpony8071]

Depends on playstyle, medium armor fortified is the best recommended pairing but I like running engineering kit + the grenade pistol since I like destroying sub-objectives and outposts Absolutely do not run light armor with the shield. You are insanely weak and rockets will 9/10 times just outright kill you.

Need a party of shields

[@mlhx9181]

We need an option to join shields with a buddy. It'd be practically useless but it could maybe use a modified crew served weapon system that's already there. Either that or the option to drive it into the ground like a pavise to use as cover.

[@vulpesinculta3478]

​@@mlhx9181 that pavise idea isn't bad, I like that. Imagine taking the time to set up ur own little fort at the extract while waiting for someone to get the last few outposts lolll
