Helldivers 2 // Street Sniper - Coop Super Helldive - All Clear, No Deaths

[@samkostka126]

If you manage to see a harvester before it sees you, the spike on top of their head is how they create their shield, and it only takes one shot from the AMR to take out

[@altoid2949]

Is this true?? I had no idea, that would make them so much easier to deal with

[@samkostka126]

@ Indeed, I think it's one shot from the autocannon too but I don't really like the stagger that has against the squids

From watching Spiked videos for months and asking questions in the comments - to actually getting to be in one, how cool! Sorry for the TK and I never did master the SEAF shell kick, but appreciated playing with you!

Definitely loved using the AMR on my first mission with the illuminate, plus it’s nice this faction gives assault rifle weaponry a chance to shine with reducing shields quickly and tackling the hordes of those robbed of their votes. Excited to see what else the illuminate have got in their ranks and how it affects our builds! Hope you have fun rooftop sniping!

[@mustang_5197]

I’ve been running something similar to this on calypso, using the AMR on the harvester shield emitters is so satisfying. I also love how good AR’s feel against the squids

[@wood8595]

it's much more efficient to use a fast firing primary on the shields

[@Cheedssneedfeed]

Gas strike and grenades are amazing for the squids. The impact of the gas strike can destroy the warships even with the shield up.

[@larahansen2249]

The crest on the top of the Harvesters can be shot and destroyed to prevent them from generating a shield again. Can be useful when fighting them with the AMR

[@EnergyLawyer]

Great gameplay again! I noticed that once again you didnt use your grenades very much, and so I wanted to highly recommend my favorite Illuminate option: IMPACT INCENDIARIES. One good one can cover a stretch of road and kill every zombie that tries to walk through it. It's probably about as effective as the machine gun sentry and could free up your strategems for something else (I personally opt for a big barrage for bases)

[@newspiked7385]

true, will have to try them next time!

[@wood8595]

this is almost my exact loadout, except i prefer gas grenades, breaker spray&pray, and a jump pack

[@Krasgov]

Spiked what are your thoughts on Fabricators not being able to destroy Stratagem Jammers anymore. Cheeky stealth nerf.

[@minatomink9555]

For those big Illuminate tripods, try the legs. I heard they have medium armor and knocking off at least one leg ends it.

[@newspiked7385]

yup! I work out the best place to shoot them over the course of this run, it's the unarmoured bits on the pelvis rather than the legs. Only takes 4 hits with the AMR there

[@Cobbster92]

Did anyone else notice any performance issues upon entering the cities? Like anytime I aimed at something, it looked incredibly janky

[@newspiked7385]

I didn't, but frog one of our regulars did, turning down graphics didn't seem to help much sadly.

[@bluegolisano7768]

@@newspiked7385it's likely the physics objects density (all the civilian vehicles and voteless), plus the fact that the buildings are effectively two or three models per house; intact, damaged, and destroyed house variants have to be kept in memory, which will eat performance up like a singular hot pocket. keep in mind it's also the same engine that Vermintide and Vermintide 2 run on, so any issues with those games likely carries over to Helldivers 2.

[@homm3bonedragon242]

The "purge illuminate" objective really messes with people looking to full clear lol. "Where's that damn 5th side objective??"

[@newspiked7385]

had us stumped for a while lol

[@LordKelvinX2086]

Speaking of the Anti-Tank Emplacement, it's not that strong against Illuminate because the only things you can use it against are Harvesters (this will change once more enemy types are added), but I've seen firsthand how absurdly broken it is against Automatons. I saw a guy place one on top of a hill and then destroy every single Fabricator he had line of sight to, on top of blowing up Hulks and Factory Striders from half a map away. Another time someone used it to blow up all the turrets and half the Fabricators on a Mega Fort.

[@newspiked7385]

Damn, it takes out fabs from any angle? I tried it vs the bugs and had a lot of joy with it, feels like a souped up autocannon, staggered the big guys with each shot too. only issue is the massive zoom, and the odd bug where you can't dismount.

[@LordKelvinX2086]

@@newspiked7385 Yeah, I would say that each round is about as strong as a Commando rocket, but without having to wait 6-8 weeks for it to hit the target. Just plop it about 200 meters away, blow up all the turrets, then focus on whatever Fabricators you can see. About the only flaw is that once you start shooting, all the enemies inside will run outside to fight, so you need your teammates to back you up.
