Helldivers 2 How to Beat Helldive Difficulty Guide!

this is the ultimate hell dive difficulty guide look at that that is for hulks yes they are literally right on top of the drop ship and um I mean just look at this look at this if this is the sort of thing you want to take on then this is the video for you and also hell diive is the most difficult difficulty in the game it's meant to be difficult it's in the name it's the hell dive I mean it's it's insane levels of difficulty so if you're not prepared for an entire War then this isn't really the difficulty for you but it is for those players who are slightly insane anyway let me break this down and let me show you how to actually do this there are a number of key Concepts when it comes to Hell dive difficulty and the first one is keep moving do not and I repeat do not get involved in protracted battles with the Enemy especially if it's automatons because they will kill you from range so what I'm going to do here is just speed this section of the video up and just show you how we are moving we are moving as a team as well but we're just moving from point to point to point point to point trying to get objectives done trying to get the mission completed we are not standing and fighting the enemy because what will happen on Hell dive is you will get multiple bug breaches you will get multiple drop ships you will not be able to kill all of the enemies and if you try to do it you will literally run out of ammo and in fact you will die you will get overrun most of Hell dive is about the balance you need to tip the scales in your favor do not get overwhelmed if you start to get flooded you start to get overwhelmed it will back fire on you and you will not be able to win before we go any further with the video though let me show you what happens when you do lose control this is losing control on Hell dive you can see I've literally just reinforced into this I've been killed everyone's getting killed over and over again I had the super samples I had loads of samples it was all going well I died I couldn't get out of that position because we were swamped because we were fighting these Bots for too long and now we are paying the price so once again I am dead here and everything is going wrong it's going to be really hard for me to get my support weapons back this player here is actually stuck in the corner this is where I originally was look at all this pressure being put onto him he there's no way you can do this you see we've just lost super samples again it it this is when things get out of control and it is simply because we overstayed our welcome we tried to fight these Bots for too long even if you see an ally fighting one of the groups of bots over and over again and you think to South Hang On they shouldn't really be involved in a fight for this long then uh just let them just leave them to it don't try and take them on and I'm traitor detected I'm not traitor please don't try and like help them out cuz it's just going to end up in you dying and then you're going to burn through your reinforcements so here it's all gone bad I'm a traitor I'm about to be killed by the the Destroyer which is probably for the best but the rocket Devastator has killed me anyway and there we go the whole team's dead and the mission is basically over cuz we've got no reinforcements after this wave so we all come down we drop on tanks you can see again like this just highlights how many enemies are in the game at this moment in time because we haven't been killing them because we've been involved in in too many fights because fights are going on for too long we're overstaying our wel welcome there's too many enemies and we're just dead we literally cannot do anything although we did complete the mission though as you can see we although we won't get to extraction and we won't receive any of our samples because well we're dead and uh yeah that that traitorous Behavior there that hell di just given up I mean at least probably should have tried to get the extraction there but hey you know these things happen and this is what hell dive can do to a hell diver now you will have noticed I haven't actually spoken about gear loadouts and stratums at the moment it's because I fully believe you can still take whatever you like within reason make sure you take Mission specific and appropriate equipment so obviously if it's an eradication Mission and it's on Hell dive you definitely want to take the shield Dome generator um because you're going to take tons of fire and it's going to be a mess and with the Bots it's very difficult another little bit of advanced Tech is always drop your samples at the extraction site if you're near the extraction site now obviously on Hell dive it can be difficult to get to the extraction site if you're far away so in that case don't risk running across the map and potentially getting killed keep them with you stay with your team if you're teaming nearby however in the example I just showed you there we will by The Landing zone so it's actually worth dropping them down and you could see that the player on my team had already dropped some down before and I was dropping them down so when we come to extract we know as samples will be there ready and easy to pick up and they won't be lost around the map so what I'd like to do here in this section of the video is just very quickly talk about gear now you can see here this is um we're trying to destroy this eye of Sauron um and it's getting ridiculous right but what I want to show you here is the gear and this is where if I hadn't took the supply backpack and heavy armor I would be dead so there is an element of you need to survive at this difficulty now what I'm doing is I'm tanking hits from lasers from Rockets I'm diving to the ground but my armor is keeping me Liv it's heavy armor so it's got the 30% reduction to explosive damage and also it's just heavy armor so it's got higher damage resistance anyway but what I'm also doing is using my supplies on my back to replenish my stems and you'll notice that I'm constantly spamming stems stem after stem after stem because if I don't do that I'm going to die and the other thing with stems is you always want to be at full health on Hell dive because you can just take Spike damage from seemingly nowhere and especially against the Bots like I said this video is mainly centered on the Bots but they will hit you from range those Devastators the heavy Devastators with the shields are very accurate with the machine guns as well they'll hit you and you'll take massive spes of damage so you always want to be at full health now this plays in again to the build that I've got if I hadn't taken the ammo backpack I might be a little bit sparse with my stems you know I wouldn't just keep stemming myself back up to full if I was near full I probably would leave it and think okay I can maybe tank a few hits but there's always going to be two components I'm always taking on Hell dive difficulty and it will be the shield backpack or heavy armor I don't think there's any need to take heavy armor and a shield backpack because the heavy armor has been buffed so you can actually tank the hits you can see here like I'm tanking hits from these hulks I mean it's not great I'm having to burn through my uh steems though but because I've got the antimaterial rifle that works quite well with my backpack cuz I can keep reloading it and also it reloads your grenades as well but again like I said guys this comes down to your build like what you're looking to take what are the weapons you're going to use because you can you can arguably take a lot of different weapons a lot of different builds but as I say try and keep yourself alive I would probably I mean I know there'll be players out there that would would do this and there's probably even players in this team at the moment that have got light armor on I would be wary of that though on this difficulty especially against the Bots CU you will take damage and you will just die and it's really frustrating because if you die it's one of those things where you're going to lose momentum because you're going to need to get your gear back you're going to need to wait for strategems to be available again and all of that stuff so here this is a really great example of a um I I guess Ambush on that bot Patrol now you typically don't want to fight bot patrols you want to avoid them at all costs the thing is here they are around the super sample Rock and we were waiting you'll notice there was no coms as well there wasn't any discussion over the microphone there wasn't any text chat these players are obviously used to playing hell dive difficulty you do generally get better players on Hell dive obviously you can get players with their first hell dive and that's fine um but you can see we waited for Ambush it was coordinated and we took them out very fast didn't give them a chance to call in drop ships because if they do call in drop ships or the bug spawn bu holes that's a major problem on Hell dive because you will get very quickly swamped so again here looking at a patrol and avoiding the patrol always ping the patrols when you see them ping them I know I'm Advanced here from my team I know that if I ping that Patrol my team will be aware of them I'm not pinging them to say let's fight them I'm pinging them to say go around them let's not mess with them because there is a good chance that we won't kill them all fast enough and they will call in reinforcements and then we're going to have to deal with that w behind us which is going to keep pushing us all the way to extraction and we don't want that so talking of enemy spawns there are also other things you can do if you do engage enemies and you want them to despawn you can run away you can keep running away provided they're not actually fighting anybody eventually they will despawn I'm not entirely sure how this works and there's some very interesting videos on YouTube about this um but essentially you can see here look we're very fastly quick quickly if I can speak English trying to destroy these and take them out strats used I'm trying to take that Hulk out I mean hulks are not really a threat when they're miles away especially when I've got something like the antimaterial rifle or you could use the laser cannon is very effective against some or the auto Cannon um obviously at close range they kill you but the target priority in those groups is you want to kill the smaller Bots because you don't want them to actually start calling from reinforcements cuz that's going to be the problem whereas the Hulk uh distance is not really that much of a threat anyway he would chase us back here and eventually would become a threat but the point I was making is and there are some really great videos out there on YouTube that discuss the way spawns are handled in the game and I think the very basic way of looking at this is the enemies will be sort of in the game and spawned if they're near a player at which point that player is kind of like rendering them in almost again like I said I'm not entirely sure how it works but basically if you run away from your team and you've got a load of enemies chasing you they will despawn I'm really gutted cuz I had a clip of a factory Strider despawning and I can't for the life of me find it I might have used it in an older video but basically a factory stri to spawned and by the way I haven't seen of those since this recent update or in fact since the automaton attack like what's going on um but the factory Strider despawned and that's kind of a way of dealing with it it's a crap way but it's a way of dealing with it you can aggro them and then run away you know far enough and then it will despawn provided You're the Only Hell dive sort of in range yeah so this is Hell dive guys you just need to keep moving I know this sounds really stupid keep moving prioritize targets with the weapon that you've got so I'm anti material rifle at the moment I'm going to be looking to kill the heavier enemies if I can I'm going to be trying to kill the hulks kill the Berserkers and take out the smaller Bots things like tanks are surprisingly quite annoying to kill with the anti material rifle cuz you need to sort of reposition run around and get out of the way now I've been playing a lot with this weapon so I'm very accurate with it so I do get that people will be watching this going while h on I might not have this level of aim and this is stupid I'm going to miss all these shots what happens if I want to take you know like a heavy machine gun um and I guess that's where we should probably talk about builds and and the way builds can affect they really can affect the outcome of this more than any other mode in the game so while you can just take whatever you like at most difficulties when it comes to Hell dive you do need to look at some basic sort of tenants if you're against the Bots you generally don't want to take stuff which is great against the bug so very simply you're not going to take flamer weapons against the Bots because well the Bots are going to shoot you from range and you're not really going to be flaming them but I don't think anyone would really do that seriously if they were playing on the hard of difficulties um so it's just kind of like use your brain but like I said I hope you guys have seen through the footage here and my labbing over this video that hell dive it's about movement it's about keep moving engage and move engage and move don't have protracted battles if you can protect the samples at all costs don't get overwhelmed run run run keep moving keep firing and keep moving and you will get this done it is very intense though like the one thing I found with hell dive is I am I'm I'm kind of like I'm all gassed out after after two missions honestly to complete an operation at this difficulty it is difficult and you will well I need to lie down after I've done it maybe that's me getting old I don't know um but yeah if you play enough hell dive you can go back to difficulties like um suicide mission and actually it feels kind of nice cuz you're not getting swamped and you can Engage The enemies anyway guys if you got any tips for hell dive difficulty drop them in the comments below and if you do enjoy these kind of videos yeah then do like the video um leave a comment below as I say subscribe to the channel and uh I'll maybe look at making more stuff like this cuz I used to make guides to in the past and I'm thinking about making some like maybe really detailed guides and stuff like that going forward but we'll see anyway guys thank you for watching the video and I hope this helps if you're looking to take on Hell dive difficulty I'll catch you on the next one see you soon
