What's the most efficient loadout for wiping out an enemy squad in Helldivers 2?If by “enemy squad” you mean a patrol, the most efficient all-purpose setup is:
General patrol-deletion loadout
- •Primary: Exploding Crossbow — clears clustered infantry, medium enemies, fabricators, and bug holes.
- •Secondary: Redeemer for emergency close-range cleanup.
- •Grenade: Stun Grenade — locks a patrol in place for the strike.
- •Armor: Light or medium Engineering Kit armor for extra grenades and recoil control.
- •Booster: Hellpod Space Optimization or Experimental Infusion.
Stratagems
- 1.Eagle Airstrike — your main patrol wipe; fast, versatile, and multiple uses per rearm.
- 2.Orbital Gatling Barrage — short cooldown and excellent against clustered enemies or reinforcements.
- 3.Recoilless Rifle — handles chargers, hulks, tanks, dropships, and other heavies.
- 4.Machine Gun Sentry — efficient cleanup and distraction with a relatively short cooldown.
Execution
Stun the center of the patrol, place an Eagle Airstrike across its formation, then immediately kill any survivor capable of calling reinforcements. Save the Recoilless Rifle for armored units.
Faction adjustments
- •Terminids: Swap the Machine Gun Sentry for Eagle Napalm Strike or Guard Dog Rover.
- •Automatons: Keep the Airstrike; consider Autocannon instead of Recoilless if medium enemies are the main problem.
- •Illuminate: Favor rapid-fire weapons and Orbital Gatling/Airburst for shield stripping and clustered infantry.
For sheer efficiency, Eagle Airstrike is the key pick: it deletes most patrols while remaining useful against objectives and armor.
