Top 4 Builds For ALL Situations | Helldivers 2 Build Guide, Bots, Bugs, Solo, Max Difficulty

in Hell divers 2 choosing the right equipment and strategems for your next mission can be like traversing a Minefield the more options you unlock the harder it becomes to choose a really wellth out and coherent build because you're always battling with two thoughts do I stick with these strategems that I use all the time because I know that they're really good and I know how to use them or do I switch it up and try something new hoping to find the next best thing while also risking that I'm going to be an absolutely useless teammate for the next 40 minutes fear not for I have done exensive testing of every single strategy and other piece of equipment in the game and in this video let me talk you through the four most powerful builds that I have found to ensure you are the best diver in every single situation from bug and Bot specific builds to defense missions and even the best allrounder solo build so in no particular order we'll kick off the video with my favorite allrounder build for solo play firstly looking at bugs as we move into this first build please do note that the purpose of this video isn't to try to force you to only use these things religiously and never try anything else from my testing the equipment I'll be advising in this video is the most effective if you want to die less and win more but I really am a real advocate for playing how you want to play and just having fun so sometimes if you just want to see big explosions and put the fear of God in your teammates then of course feel free to just run mortar centuries and 380 mil barges however with that said the equipment I recommend you take if you're trying to solo tougher missions is the eagle air strike the guard dog Rover the rail gun and the orbital laser and it'll look a little something like this firstly and most obviously you've got the guard dog roover to help you deal with swarms of enemies this thing racks up so so many more kills than you would think as I have told you all time and time again before your Eagle air strikes ideally you want to save to help you take out nests a well position positioned Eagle air strike can easily take out three nests in one shot it's also really great defensively when protecting objectives such as extraction or whilst you're waiting for the ICBM missile to arm things like that next up of course the rail gun is going to be amazing at two shoting charges you will use your rail gun to strip the armor off one of their legs and then four to six shots from your breaker shotgun in that leg will instantly take them down primarily saving your rail gun for charges means just one 20 round mag will take out 10 charges and then your orbital laser is going to ideally be saved for if you see a bile Titan however if you're fairly confident there isn't one for quite some time you've still got a couple of charges left and it's near the end of the mission feel free to use it to help you defensively or throw it into a heavy Nest using these four pieces of equipment means you have got all bases covered swarms big enemies little enemies offensive and defensive they are going to cover all angles as for your booster I strongly recommend you take the stamina enhancement because you are going to need to do a lot of running as you are the only person on the ground sometimes it will be running to objectives sometimes it will be gathering points of interest and sometimes it will be running away from swarms of enemies whilst you wait for your Eagle air strike to cool down but the increased stamina and stamina regen is going to be absolutely key for Sol play now as we're still talking about the allrounder solo build the only slight adjustment I would make for the Bots is to potentially switch out the guardog Rover for the shield generator swarms of bots aren't quite the same as swarms of bugs as opposed to the bugs very few Bots try to get up in your face and what you are more focused on is making sure you don't die from the constant barrages of bullets therefore switching out the guardog Rover to the shield generator if you're soloing highle bot missions I found to be really effective as you can see here I've been running these missions on hard mode and not only that both of the missions I have been on have the debuff which doubles the call- in time of all of my strategems so the footage you're seeing here really is a trial by fire this is worst case scenario so when you try out these Builds on your own you'll be having an even easier time than you're seeing me having here because I'm really having to be careful where I call in my air strikes because they take something like 8 seconds to cool down when in reality it's only like three and still despite the fact that I have one of the more challenging modifiers applied on me these missions have been an absolute Breeze because this build is just so powerful just like with the bugs the eagle air strike is incredible against bots perhaps even more so because as long as you are either 44 M away from a factory without the The increased throwing range or 66 M wi and you get that perfect 45° Arc your air strike will take care of every single Factory for you without you needing to Go Near That Base where things could potentially start to get quite messy before I move on to the next build there is one more bot specific tip I wanted to share with you just in case anyone still doesn't know this yet the rail gun is perhaps even more powerful against bots than it is against bugs as you know one of the toughest bots in the game game is the three different variations of the Hulk these things can decimate even a full Squad if left unchecked however if you are remotely good at aiming and you can aim for that big red dot right in the center of their face the rail gun will one shot them and despite the fact that I had a really weird bug here and in this facility there were no less than 10 hulks there was potentially even more Honestly by the time I'd cleared it out seven of them had all clustered together here I was just hitting one shot after one shot after one shot with my rail gun I completely melted this entire facility like it was nothing do not underestimate the power of the rail gun against Hulks and Devastators if you can hit that red dot they will onot all of them even heavy Devastators with the giant ballistic shield on front if you aim just above it at that red dot peeking out that is still going to One-Shot even a heavy Devastator so now your only problems are going to be things like Cannon Towers mortars and tanks that is exactly where your orbital laser comes in just like you are saving it for your bile Titans against bugs save it for these really really big scary threats throw your orbital laser in go hide behind a rock and it will completely melt everything for you without you having to lift a finger and because you have potentially switched out the guard dog Rover for the shield generator your breaker shotgun will make a light work of every other bot you encounter Raiders Marauders assault Raiders none of them are going to stand a chance against your breaker with your Shield generator blocking their bullets you can easily take out waves and waves of them without breaking a sweat so now armed with this build with the slight variation potentially for Bots depending on your personal preference you should be able to solo almost all missions with ease so next up let's take a look at my best recommendations for a te team build when facing off against super high level bugs we're talking suicide impossible and even hell dive difficulty let me start this section by saying that my absolute biggest tips when playing as part of a team and completing them really really difficult missions isn't your build it's not your strategems it's not your gear it's coordination and cooperation hopefully many veterans here will agree with me that a hell dive mission with a team who knows how to coordinate and cooperate and is on comms is going to be far easier than a suicide mission with no collaboration no matter what build you use you are going to struggle unless you communicate and coordinate I totally appreciate some people don't want to talk or may not have the setup to be able to but even just P Etc in game are going to be better than not doing that at all and for people who do want to team up and Squad up more than they ordinarily would be able able to please feel free to join my Discord server link down below there is now 3,000 of us in here with upwards of 10 teams on the go at all times there is always people wanting to jump into all Mission types all levels and all varieties of gameplay now that you know my biggest tip around how to approach the mission let's talk about the actual build again you want the eagle air strike in fact I don't think there is a single build in the game what you don't want either the eagle air strike perhaps the the naay Palm or at least the rocket pods the rocket pods are a bit different and a bit more situational I like the air strike over the cluster strike because of the fact it can blow up buildings and nests this is the main way that you can breach really tough garrisons without needing to run in and potentially waste half of your reinforcements whereas the cluster strike won't allow you to do that because it can't blow things up it will only kill smaller enemies it won't completely neutralize any threats so Eagle air strike guard dog Rover they are going to be absolutely key and you'll see what I mean by that when I show you my kill count versus the rest of my team in just a couple of minutes and for your last two strategems I have four for you to choose from depending on what the rest of your team have chosen because ideally you want to fill the gaps depending on how much AOE and single Target damage everyone else is bringing so your support weapon choose between the grenade launcher or the rail gun depending on what everyone else is has got and for your final strategy I would advise either the rail Cannon strike or the orbital laser however if no one else has brought any of the following I always feel like there should be at least one senty for defending positions depending on your main objective and also during extract so try and make sure there's at least one Gatling or Auto cannon in there and also one 500 kg bomb however make sure that's wielded by someone who knows how to use it it has a very small explosion radius it's great for taking down bile Titans but it needs to be able to hit them so I always leave the 500 kg bomb to someone else and I take the laser instead but make sure at least someone has it because it is crazy powerful so as I say for your team build for bugs the main for you want is the eagle a strike guardog Rover orbital rail Cannon strike and grenade launcher when it comes to boosters we're assuming you're running with a fully maxed out team pretty much everyone is going to have all the boosters the four I recommend are increased stamina regen always reinforcing with full equipment it's called the the hell pod optimization something or rather that one always reduced injury is another absolutely key one and then the fourth one you can be a little bit more flexible with but I really like the muscle enhancement so that terrain slows you down less when running through thick grass Etc as for your equipment use whatever armor you want honestly use whatever traits fit your play style best and until they fix the armor ratings just run with light armor always run with the breaker shotgun there is literally no reason to use anything else it is so insanely powerful and that's it you are completely sorted for every single bug mission on any difficulty oh and like I said just before I move on look at this kill count this is absolutely insane this build is so ridiculously powerful and now before we move on to our final build which is the team build for facing off against really hard bot difficulties let me quickly review the best defense Mission build this works for both solo and teams and there literally is no reason to use anything else this is just so broken use this 100% of the time this will be a super quick section because I'm sure you all already know exactly what you should be running for defense missions you want the mortar and the EMS mortar and your strategic placement of your mortars is what's going to make all the difference in these missions make sure they stay alive and they will make sure you stay alive especially if there's multiple of you just raining morar strikes down on all your enemies they won't get any near you and it will be GG in no time at all however if a few of the enemies do somehow manage to get close to you the other two I strongly suggest you run are the rail gun and the orbital laser so that you can FOC Focus down big targets allowing your mortars to keep dealing their Splash damage to all the little targets clearing up swayes of enemies for you before they get anywhere near you and finally let's take a look at the absolute best loadouts for when fighting them really tough High difficulty bot missions as a team firstly and most importantly the eight stratagems I recommend you use and most of these are all very fluid so use whatever's going to be best to fit the rest of your team as always of course most obvious and perhaps most importantly you've got the rail gun and the rail Cannon strike the eagle air strike and the orbital laser there are your four big offensive options try and pick two of them and then fill the other two slots with the other strategems that I recommend next up for your backpack item The Shield generator is going to be absolutely key against bots or if you would prefer to bring something like the guard dog Rover or maybe even the supply pack then to make sure you're still getting the shield The Shield generator relay you can bring along so you can put that down for the whole team this isn't as powerful as four personal individual Shield generators but it can still hold off quite a lot of attacks and it's a decent option if you really want to bring it another fantastic very spped on option is the orbital EMS strike very much like the EMS mortar that advise you use in defense missions this is going to not only immobilize all bots in the area but it will completely stun them giving them zero options to retaliate shoot or even move and finally I do strongly recommend at least one member of the team brings one kind of Sentry to really buff your defensive capabilities in any situation where you need to defend a single point and I personally think the auto Cannon is the best of the lot especially when you've got the upgrades that increase not only the ammo but also the rotation speed it eliminates any and all weaknesses the autoc Canon had and it just melts through every single thing that the Bots can throw at you now
