If I don't look good while representing Democracy, then what's the point?

Facts gotta be clean gotta be clean

[@TheBrickSquad11]

Exactly, got to represent democracy

[@Sparta-vu3jj]

I hope they add cosmetic loadouts that you can save. And when you die it randomly chooses a different loadout. Gives a better feeling that you are playing a different Helldiver when you died.

[@HolmaBallz]

I love this idea. Hope this is something they’ll consider one day🙏

[@nasseringles6553]

Yes. I Also want this.Need to send this ideia to helldivers dev.Because this will make the lore so acurrate.

[@thephoenix4093]

this is exactly what I thought, it would've been perfect if you could also tie the voice to it.

[@TheBrickSquad11]

Or just add a randomizer but that wouldn't be as good

[@thephoenix4093]

@@TheBrickSquad11 a randomizer would be a terrible idea since some people paid for the outfits so it wouldn't be fair.

[@Lilitha11]

Finally someone addressing the real issues.

[@WeeWeeJumbo]

they really need to add a transmog upgrade to the Destroyer

[@dukkibhoy1990]

Drip for delivering democracy.

*Dolly dress-up

[@big_bad_puppy]

Time to take a Fashion-Dive!

[@Necrosoro1]

The new cw-9 white wolf armor looks great with the champion of the people helmet and the fallen hero's vengeance cape, it's what i'm currently rocking right now.

[@greynik7037]

My personal favourite is the FS-11 Executioner heavy armor set, it lets me feel like i'm chunky and well armored but i hope they do get that armor rating fixed. Till then i'll just enjoy being the shiniest target on the team who slow runs half the fight out of breath haha.

[@Prockski]

The trailblazer helmet also buffs whatever armour you are wearing to make its speed and stamina better.

[@Stav6]

Didn’t think any helmets apply buffs pretty sure this doesn’t either it’s only armor

[@Prockski]

@@Stav6 Check out the last vid I posted or try it yourself. I didn't just make that fact up. I put on the helmet and saw the values of my armour change.

[@Prockski]

@@Stav6 Check the last vid I posted. You can see the armour values change when I put on the helmet.

[@ghostavelli]

@@Prockskivisual bug

[@Cinna3unnz]

​@@Prockskino other helmets give any buffs tho. The game is full of occasional bugs so it be best to assume this is one too or you can myth bust in game. Set like two markers or go from building to building and time yourself.

[@Drazatis]

I personally rock the SC-37 Legionnaire armor with the CE-35 Trench Engineer Helmet, and the basic cape. I like the orange contrast from the helmet matching with the shoulders, and I feel like nobody else wears the armor either. Plus, I find it really hard to take off the Enhanced throwing passive- just helps with eagle strikes so much!

[@collectiveleak]

Glad someone else loves servo assisted as much as me. My buddies didn't get it till they started spectating me and saw me launch piss missiles across a football fields length to take out nests. So darn helpful

[@vincentbaker2120]

The CE-81 JUGGERNAUT is my all-time favorite armor especially with the super citizens cape and the SA-25 STEEL TROOPER helmet is greaI really recommended that combo.

[@Gabriell1126]

Steel Trooper Helmet, Exterminator Armor, and standard black cape is how I roll out every mission.

[@Collingoffinet]

Your comparisons you made between armor and pop culture/ gaming references were on point

[@stevenobrien7686]

I love the Hero of the Federation armor. The black and gold especially with the winged shoulder pad gives off serious space SS officer vibes (say what you will, those MFs had style, and have had heavy influence on the fashion of various villains in film and game history). Especially when paired with the light gunner helmet you mentioned, which has a very WWI/Krieg vibe from warhammer 40k militarum.

[@anscharfrost7303]

CE-07 Detonation expert + CW-22 Kodiak Helmet and the default black cape until the reviewdiver helmet releases is also a nice combo

[@Ember34]

Consider the following: Legionnaire Body Armor + Drone master helmet for a pilot type fit CE-81 Juggernaut Body Armor + BO8 Light Gunner Helmet for a black ops look

[@CT--gu5ng]

One of the best combinations I did was using the SC-37 Legionnaire body armor, SC-15 Drone Master, and the Foesmasher cape

[@stala9204]

Some of my personal favorites are: CE-07 Demolition Specialist armor with the SA-25 Steel Trooper helmet & bastion of integrity cape (It just looks cool) EX-03 Prototype 3 armor with trailblazer scout helmet & botslayer cape. (I feel like some kind of desert warrior) CE-27 Ground Breaker armor with the trailblazer scout helmet & cape. (it's like a beefed up version of the scout armor) FS-05 Marksman Armor with the CE-27 Ground Breaker Helmet + Harbinger of true equality (It makes me want to throw flames)

[@drez0847]

who needs these outfits when you have the damn preorder ones (im slightly jealous)

[@chupibozz8413]

I appreciate when someone’s loadout is based off something from Star Wars

[@TheKaijuHunter]

Not sure if it's intended by the developers but the Trailblazer Scout helmet has a hidden stat attached to it which gives you a plus 6 speed increase.

[@tipitachibana5493]

I hope the devs add in a knight, samurai, predator & assassins creed like armour which every players want in every game 🔥🔥

[@Sarcastican_]

Gaslit myself into thinking I like the medium armor +2 grenade buff just because it looks cooler.

[@VVhirl-VVind]

Personally one of my fav combo right now is the dreadnought armor and light gunner helmet, i just think the tow add to the hole big brute look as well as puts the dread in dreadnought

[@zareh805]

You had me at ‘Darth.’

[@tezeroth4905]

I wish we could customize colors of armors

[@ballisticism759]

Probably gonna come in a later update

[@calcium9398]

A good combination I've found is using the Battle Master heavy armor and matching helmet from the free warbond combined with the Drape of Glory cape from the Steeled Veterans warbond. The yellow half of the cape matches perfectly with the yellow armor on the left arm and the extra yellow paint on the helmet.

[@KevlarPeterson]

0:15 in and I already seen the style I've been rocking for weeks. This man talks business

[@Lucifishy]

We really need a follow-up now that we’re five months in and so many warbonds later!

[@Kimoka28]

Im thinking about buying the premium warbond pass, will they add more premium passes in the future or should i just buy the pass now?

[@acatonkush8709]

It’s not gonna go away

[@ozalduin4383]

I hope they'll add more options in the future for mixing and matching for armor like arms legs and torso like in destiny maybe.

[@mike1220115]

Tr-117 alpha commander armor set with the tyrant hunter cape. Former ODST paying tribute to the chief.

[@SenpaiChefsan]

Legionnaire with servo assisted helm and cape from the premium pass makes you look like an x wing pilot. Pretty dope!

[@Shocktop35]

Instead of the drone master armor with the light gunner helmet, use the dreadnaught armor. I know its heavy armor but paired with a flamethrower you get a flame trooper vibe

[@djolltax]

Steel trooper helm & hero of the federation armour is my personal favourite atm Other favourites of mine include: - trench engineer helm with legionnaire armour, - light gunner helm with demolition specialist armour, and - ravager helmet with eradicator armour

[@bucket936]

Scout Armor with Yellow/Black two tone cape and Default helmet with yellow stripe on to match the cape. That's the drip right there.

[@miniops12]

light gunner helmet with exterminator armor and the standard cape is my go-to. definitely kinda gives off "are we the baddies?" vibes, but i fuck with it

[@mattjk5299]

The light gunner helmet is one of my favourites. Reminds me of Rangers and of Brotherhood of Nod troopers.

[@BLOODBORNE_cx]

5:09 how do u get that black and red armor it looks so good. I just bought the game today and i haven't seen it anywhere.

[@notyou3165]

Trailblazer head and cape + Legionnaire is straight up the D1 cover art hunter

[@lumbagoboi1649]

The champion of the people helmet, light of eternal liberty cape, and white armor in the premium pass (forgot its name) looks really good together. Its like a battle hardened version of champion of the people outfit. +Also make your guy lean so the white armor doesn't look too chunky compared to the relatively small helmet.

[@Mr.Spade1]

Juggernaut armour with the light gunner helmet is my current favourite armour combo. Using the default or the default cape with the yellow at the bottom work extremely well. I do hope that they add colour pallets though, be nice to see some more variation between players.

[@Woogsie]

The best thing about the trailblazer helmet is that it adds a few points to speed and stamina regen while subtracting a few from armor rating. Even though it doesn't say it has any modifiers.

[@DrunkenShellback]

I 100% said the same thing about the Batman look when I equipped it.

[@agedgouda8809]

Nice outfits! As someone who needs good looking fits but also cares abt stats, trailblazer helmet, breaker armor (the light armor with red and tan, gives more nades) and a default black cape has been my absolute go to. I do love the light gunner helmet though.

[@pjthehomelessmage]

Infiltrator armor, Battle Master helmet and the tyrant hunter cape. Love this fit.

[@DoomFlavored]

I just want to be able to customize the colors of my armor/helmet. Being able to earn decals would be cool too, but if my friends and I can dress in matching colors and RP as a proper unit, that’d be the sickest way to liberate 🫡🌎

[@andrewengel3023]

my personal armor kit is the Battlemaster body armor, the Juggernaut helmet, and whatever cape I feel fits the day

[@Gadebalran]

My new favorite combo I started using was the CE-74 Breaker armor with the CE-81 Juggernaut helmet and the basic black cape.

[@BalintM7898]

I really like to use the SC-15 Drone master armor with the CE-74 Breaker helmet, kinda gives me that Tusken vibe from Star wars.

[@MrOutlandish07]

I would love for capes that actually have a built in hood so that it can go over any helmet. I would LOVE capes that can wrap around you more so that they go over the shoulders and give like a cloak vibe.

[@christianfigueroa4048]

The champion of the people reminds me a lot a mandalorian and the dynamo looks like a old republic trooper

[@bryangates4591]

champion of the people armor set with the malevelon creek cape is beautiful

[@williamxeemhmoobyaj5131]

They should have a capeless option with all those other med to heavy armor looks like spartans, odst, & titans from destiny

[@YOUTUBE_CHRIS]

I wish we could pick our own armor perks, so I can look good AND be efficient

[@mangoz808]

I do the B-08 Light gunner with CE-74 Breaker with a basic cape. look like a NOD soldier from C&C

[@Blitzkrieg_Wolf]

You look good, you feel good. You feel good, you do good. You do good, you win. you win, you survive to fight another day. Fashion has it's tactical advantages too.

[@whyknot172]

I base my loadouts on my look too. I get a look down and im like, whats this guys motivation? Does the primary weapon color match? etc... I'll figure out how to aim later.

[@lainbrim1359]

My current favorite is the exterminator armor and helmet with the creek memorial cape

[@GunNutproductionsOG]

Ah yes, fashion the true endgame (love it)

[@tritebs1673]

My favorite right now is the Drone Master Helmet and the Juggernaut Armor with the standard black cape

[@kkwings7725]

I hope they add something like allow us to customize the colour of the armor, so we can pick the armor with good effect and status and dont need to worry you dont like the style

[@TopazBeast]

Surprised Swany didn't mention the Eradicator set, very reminiscent of a Scout Trooper from Star Wars, especially one of the green camo ones on Kashyyk

[@timogeerties3487]

8:41 top row, in the middle This helmet, paired with a dark, bulky armor, default cape, jumppack and arc thrower and you got yourself a shock trooper

[@adibpranata9986]

As a skull admiral for the time being a need to look badass in front of cadets 😂

[@judasgoat822]

I love to wear the CM-14 physician helmet with the CE-7 breaker armor. The red stripe in the helmet matches the red armor

[@Perepaopao]

Absolutely loved the video, your ideas and references for combinations are amazing!

[@I_am_the_one101]

FS-38 Eradicator is so cool too! Reminds me and Im sure everyone else of a scout trooper!

[@SM1777Y]

damn didn't realize anyone else would've seen the ncr ranger. its a great combo

[@alexrangel1123]

They should do a odst collab since 343 had no issue doing this with rainbow siege

[@brendonmoore3505]

Get on the juggernaut armour with the melevalon Creek Cape. Or the black armour and yellow with the robotic arms and leg and the bucket helm with the gas mask

[@psykoupathic4225]

Hoping you can change colors of the armor in a future update, that way it won’t look weird mix matching helmets and armor

[@TopazBeast]

Exterminator and Juggernaut armor sets are definitely my favorites, I like the mode armored yet sleek sets, kinda Star Wars/Mandalorian feeling. I agree with the criticism of the hooded helm we currently have, the front is pretty ugly, would love a black metallic helmet with a hood in the future

[@somekindahelldiver]

Aaahhh yes fashion, probably the best part of games like this.

[@eloverlord96]

If they add that we can customize the colors that would be amazing and overall better for our stetic necessities so we could make better matches between different outfits and helmets

[@NateThurlow]

That hooded outfit from the start is literally the one i want to run lmao

[@SmileMan843]

Trench engineer armor with enforcer helmet and the fallen hero’s vengeance because I was a creeker

[@SlavicDor]

My personal fav is ground breaker helm Infiltrator armor and true equality cape

[@ljoahl]

Dynamo helmet and the Legionnaire armor is pretty good combo imo

[@Harikusa]

One question, does it have appearance customisation? Like in Warframe or at least like in Deep Rock Galactic?

[@dr.quantum1644]

I love the enforcer helmet and bonesnapper combo, it’s what I run most of the time

[@RamessesIll]

Im currently rocking the B-24 Enforcer armor with the SA-Dynamo Helmet, looks pretty clean

[@khantheman2000]

Am currenty rocking FS 34 Exterminator With The B 08 Light Gunner with any orange tinted cape

[@Randomplaceinruralamerica]

I find the Infiltrator helmet to look really nice with the Hero of the Federation armor and cape

[@twistupbeatz]

I might have to make a video myself because just to give a tad criticism. Not trying to overdo it too much. Because again looks are subjective. A lot of your picks were fire… however. Your cape choices and some armor combos you left out If you make a pt 2. Can you please show the combo Exterminator amor Combat tech helmet Regular default black cape. This is the combo for my teams fit. Also we have a lot of other combos you didn’t mention. Love your grind and support for democracy! Plz do a pt2 there is still alot of combos you missed💙

[@adambouyish9701]

My HellDiver wears the Dreadnougt armor with the Juggernaut hellmet.

[@kendelltoombs8323]

Ngl, I need some Champion Of The People gameplay

[@Tojimano]

We need an all black outfit emediately

[@DALONEWOLF108]

I love the juggernaut armor a lot gives battison vibes with the arm guards

[@tipitachibana5493]

CE-81 Juggernaut armour looks the best with the first premium war bond helmet 💯

[@ToothpasteJuice]

I really liked this video! More of these in the future please

[@korealis0016]

well i mean all the options are pretty good looking and all the combinations work

[@conner121100]

I use the new Vegas combo a lot of the time, same reasoning and normally with a cowboy style loadout for the RP fun

[@RebirthOfHades]

they should start wilding with the fits add in some helmets with fangs and big ass shoulder pads

[@fe_vo]

I presed that like just cause of the topic of the video! I hope ethey can add hood as a separate option. But the hood combos are awesome! Black to green cape can work wih some of those as well. I am rocking the Juggernaut helmet, Eradicator annd black and green cape rn

[@theaether3124]

hey i run the drone, gunner and foesmasher cape, I swapped from scout just because I wanted the 2 extra grenades

[@elliottgaal9774]

I do hope to see more helmets and potentially some stats/buffs for them soon.

[@mathias9592]

Actually, i really like the Vanilla Armor u get right from the start. It looks good but it also reinforces the idea that you are only one regular faceless Soldier in this fight. Diving with a full squad of regular armor ist the true H2 Experience.

[@blacksunaccounts]

This is why I hope they don't add stats to helmets. Helmets really let you tailor what you look like

[@timtim807]

You have to try SC-37 legionare with the trench engineer helmet
