Helldivers 2 - The BEST Stratagems For Solo Players (High Difficulty Tips)

strategems are the most important parts of our Loadout so we spend a lot of time early on in Hell divers 2 trying to figure out those strategems that hit just right and in today's video I want to show you a few strategems you will not be able to live without when taking on Hell divers 2 in higher difficulties today I want to show you two different strategems that I genuinely believe will be in my Loadout 100% of the runs I do for the foreseeable future as these are simply the best strategems especially when taking on this game G completely solo if you're new to the channel my name is Teo and I am going to be covering mostly solo play at the highest difficulty including farming guides gameplay and all sorts of tips that can assist you spreading democracy across all of these different planets of course most of the tips including the ones from this video will apply to grouped play as well I just happen to enjoy lone wolfing video games and Hell divers 2 is no different so without any further Ado let's talk about these strategems the first strategem I want to talk about today is The Shield generator Ator pack this is a backpack strategy that will passively give you a shield for the entirety of your run as long as you have the backpack equip by utilizing this Shield you will not be able to equip jump packs or guard dogs or any other type of backpack however none of these strategems will come close to being as good as this one when you look at it from a first glance you might think that this Shield is really only going to be useful when dealing with automatons as it's mostly going to just Shield you from small fire right The Shield does not only apply to shots it actually applies for melee damage as well but most importantly this Shield will protect you from Cc or in other words it will protect you from being knocked down by the charger it will protect you getting knocked down by the stalkers as well as it prevents you from being slowed down by the bile and other types of slows which are often times extremely annoying to deal with when you're being swarmed by the little guys so basically anything that was going to otherwise stun you or slow you now gets blocked by this Shield entirely as long as the shield is up of course this Shield is no joke either it can take quite a lot of damage before it gets destroyed I have no idea how much damage it can take but I suspect it can pretty much take as much damage as a full health bar because you can survive some pretty strong Hits and The Shield just remains intact once the shield does however get taken down it will remain down for about 5 to 6 seconds before it pops back up once it does return it does not return at full health but it'll still block a hit or two before it gets taken down again if it does not recover back to full this Shield is going to be an absolute necessity when taking on higher difficulties especially as a solo player seeing how all of your enemies attentions are focused on you which will mean you're constantly surrounded by little guys getting rushed by stalkers and getting charged by Chargers now to State the obvious fact that if you're dealing with automatons you'll be getting shot from every direction being able to not constantly be pushed over and shoved by all sorts of different enemies makes an insane difference to your runs and I'm sure once you guys pick up this strategy you will not want to play without it so this Shield is an amazing defensive utility but now let's talk about my favorite strategy in the game I spent several hours grinding XP just to reach level 20 as fast as I could so I could get my hands on this bad boy the strategy in question is the rail gun the rail gun is simply the solo players Holy Grail hell it's probably a favorite to players who play in group as well seeing how powerful this weapon is and not only that but it's a strategy that won't be causing much accidental kills as it's very easy to avoid messing up with it now why is the rail gun does solo players Holy Grail when taking on Hell divers to at higher difficulties such as extreme difficulty and above you will be encountering dozens of chargers per run as well as likely multiple bio Titans in determined planets and in automaton planets you'll be encountering multiple Hulk Busters as well as multiple tanks now what do these four enemies have in common a ton of health and a thick ass armor and that's where the rail gun shines the rail gun penetrates any armor and it does a ton of damage take the biot Titan for example shoot at his weak point nah screw that we'll just shoot him right in between his eyes a few shots of the rail gun to the biot Titan's face and he'll drop dead in just a few seconds I used to take upwards of several minutes when dealing with each bio Tian before getting my hand on the rail gun but nowadays I really don't mind biot Titans at all especially if you see them from afar because the rail gun is able to shoot from extremely long distances and often times you can get rid of the biot Titan way before it gets anywhere near you and the charger as well of course four shots to the Dome and it drops dead assuming you don't want to play Matador with it and try to shoot shoot it in its weak spots the true beauty about the rail gun is that it's a weapon rather than a coold down bound strategem meaning you can just whip it out anytime you want to and every little ammo pouch you find on the floor is able to refill 10 whole shots of it meaning that's at least two chargers right there or one biot Tian seeing how ammo is not that much of an issue for the rail gun you can also use it on smaller armored targets that may be giving you some trouble and they'll be a one hit shot with a rail gun such as the BOS spewer The Hive guard among others so these are the two strategems that I believe are be running pretty much every single Mission regardless of its objectives there are other Godlike strategems out there in the game but all of them will be far more situational than the Shield Pack and the rail gun and may not be ideal for every single Mission these two however will apply to any Mission you play as the shield will be your solution to resisting stat ERS and damage and the rail gun will be your solution for dealing with armored targets so yeah I won't keep you here any longer so you can get out there and spread some democracy stay tuned for all things hell divers 2 especially if you enjoy playing solo Even If Only from time to time now let's go ahead and get back out there peace
