GPT on Question 15, Sep 25
What's the most efficient loadout for wiping out an enemy squad in Helldivers 2?Helldivers 2 is co-op only, so assuming you mean deleting an enemy patrol or reinforcement wave:
Best all-purpose patrol-wipe loadout
- •Primary: Exploding Crossbow
- •Secondary: Senator or Verdict
- •Grenade: Thermite
- •Support: Recoilless Rifle
- •Stratagems:
- •Eagle Airstrike
- •Orbital Gatling Barrage or Gas Strike
- •Orbital Precision Strike or Eagle 500kg
- •Recoilless Rifle
- •Armor: Engineering Kit for extra grenades, or Fortified for explosive resistance
How to use it
- 1.Kill the reinforcement-calling unit first.
- 2.Throw Eagle Airstrike perpendicular to the patrol’s movement.
- 3.Drop Gatling/Gas on survivors or the reinforcement point.
- 4.Use the Crossbow for clustered medium units and the Recoilless Rifle for heavies, dropships, or transports.
Faction adjustments
- •Terminids: Cookout/Incendiary Breaker; swap Precision Strike for Napalm or Gas.
- •Automatons: Diligence Counter Sniper or Crossbow; Eagle Airstrike + Recoilless Rifle is especially effective.
- •Illuminate: Sickle or Blitzer; MG-43/Guard Dog and Eagle Strafing Run work well against shields and dense infantry.
Avoid Orbital Barrages for ordinary patrols—they’re slower, less predictable, and more likely to erase your squad than the enemy’s. Balance patches can shift individual weapon rankings, but this setup’s crowd-clear plus anti-heavy coverage remains consistently efficient.
