Helldivers 2 - 500 KG and Orbital Precision Are Not Overrated, You Simply Need to Force the Hit 

Clearly you just had a better gamer chair than those Titans. Try it with an office chair.

Orbital precision strike is so underrated...its in my loadout 100% against bugs

Force the hit. Finally someone said it. 500kg is perfectly balanced it doesn’t need a buff. When a BT is about 30 meters away, throw the 500 at your feet and run. By the time the 3 seconds is up the BT will be standing right over where you called in the 500. If there is complex stratagem plotting and the cooldown is 5 seconds, then do the same thing but when the BT is 50m away.

The skill ceiling of this game is incredible. Lots of games have an issue where the content is as wide as an ocean, deep as a puddle. This game has as much content as a puddle, but what's there is INCREDIBLY deep. It's like every time I boot up the game I learn more about something I already thought I knew very well.

The thing about these two is that they heavily damage or even kill the big boys, but then ALSO still can damage and kill the enemies around them. all with the reasonable cooldowns.

I tend to try every time to go between his legs to force him to stop but i didn't knew it was working better if you go to the right leg , thanks for the tips helldiver !

bruh, i'm sharing this video with everyone who will watch it and i hope your channel blows up cuz this information is a complete gamechanger for bug players

This is a guy who pay attention and puts in the effort to learn how it works. Hell yea dude im gonna learn this. Thank you. Its quite clear the devs are def sticklers with detail and function. Love it

This!!! This is what I’ve needed and haven’t seen yet. You gained a 👍 and I subscribed . I’ve been using eats but will practice this for sure. 😊

Drauul, this is excellent work. Your discussion was clean, clear, and concise. Thank you.

Saying that the 500kg and precision strike don't one shot bile titans has gotta be one of the biggest self reported skill issues I've ever heard of

This guy knows what he's talking about I never even thought of a term for it, but "matadoring" is perfect! My technique is a little different though Timing and spacing is important, but the key is running through his legs and making him turn 90°. His slow lumbering movement makes the strike or 500kg hit everytime. I keep an eye on the timer watching it go down to zero. When it says "impact" thats the cue to dive. You'd be surprised how close you can be and survive the blast.

Thank you for showing the whole video from drop to titan to prove its not edited, take my 👍!

Nicely done. This was helpful. I love packing the precision orbital because it cools down so dang fast - now I can use it better 🍻

its really nice to see you finally receiving the amount of views that you deserve!! 😄

Thank you for sharing. First of it's kind that I could find. Very informative!!!

Thanks for the tip ! I didn't know that orbital precision strike could OS them. I use orbital railgun for ease of use, but it can be less consistant at one shoting. I'll try using precision strike next time i boot up the game, and see how i perform against them.

After watching this vid, I gotta say thanks, really helped me realize how much these stratagems are useful. Never rocked the KG or precision before, until now👍🏼

I hope they add more high skill strategems like these. It's so satisfying when you land the hit.

Thanks for the tip diver! Great work

Great work. I love the Orbital Precision strike

Great video, definitely going to try this. I've been waiting for the spit animation but I'll try during the stomp animation now

I've been practicing this strategy. Works great on Chargers.

God Tier Skillz!!! liked & subscribed

Thanks for the tips!

If they ever fix the damned crashing since the last update I'll be happy to try this out. Good explanation.

Hey thx dude, this is one of the most helpful vids

This is really cool. Thanks man!

Really great guide, thank you!

Saw a video like this, but the dude's strat was to run under the titan, drop the stratagem underneath and come out behind his back. Yeah, it forces the enormously long 180 spin and a 100% reliable hit, but it generally doesn't work if a horde is there.

Very good tips

Great video. Thanks!

Great video!

Good info. I've got to try this!

I do this same strat but with a jump pack. Love flying away as the explosion sends the bile crumbling down

For bile titans, i STRONGLY recommend staying by their LEFT (your right, if you're looking right at them) leg if the bile sack is broken! It baits out the long stomping attack animation, and can give a 500kg more than ample time to land if you toss it either right before or right as the attack starts. For the orbital precision strike, you need to toss it a bit before and THEN bait out the attack by it, and for that you probably do want to do what was said in this video and kite under their legs while baiting out the attack

And now you've matadored my thumb to the subscribe button.

I definitely will try your suggestion, looks efficient, I personally like to use Q Cannon and than Rail.

Who is claiming these stratagems don’t kill Bile Titans? I’ve never heard a single person make that claim.

Awesome!!! Thanks for the lesson :)

I just started using the 500 and I love it.

500KG can also destroy Automaton detector towers. Super useful.

This is amazing, thank you

Cool tip and thanks for the good example

Just a reminder, that baiting Titan’s melee attack is a bit dangerous for non-host players because of latency.

If you know the relative speed of bile titans, you can throw a 500kg at your feet while you're running from it and it has the same effect. Sometimes much easier when a whole hoard is chasing than dancing around its feet.

Thank you diver! That helps a lot

I found this out today accidentally on purpose and it worked. Funny how this video popped up after

Thank you for sharing your technique! +1 Subscriber

subbing cause you're the first fellow helldiver i've seen not call the 500kg shit. most ppl are just bad and need to get gud

note that at 5:12 you wouldn't normally be able to kill an uninjured bile titan, because it's a too forward, it kills it here because it's already injured. You need to aim the bomb at mid to tail.

i accidently found out it one shots titans yesterday doing the dark fluid mission. ever since then ive been thinking how fumy it was they gave us the gem of a strat right off the bat.

Just a quick spanish lesson the matador "torea" (I think "bullys" is the most literal english translations) which is taunting, so in the means that we would use the term, we could "torear" the bile titan, as in a verb, rather than "matador" the bile titan. Ohterwise this is an awesome vid, keep 'em coming!!

thanks for the tipe dude didnt know you could do that to biles

My very first titan kill was with an orbital precision strike. Hands down one of the best throws I've ever had. The thing had no idea I was there and I threw it from about 40-50 meters

Thanks for sharing. Does it work on like resupply pod?

god thank you for making this, you saved me having to do it.

It's important to note that the bile titan gets dmg reduction during its spit, so you do need to force a melee attack or use explosives on its soft underbelly to remove its ability to spit attack.

mad skills im about to try this next bug major order run.

Good tip

Jetpack, orbital precision strike, eagle cluster bomb, and quasar cannon are great against bugs. I have been running it recently and it is very good.

Up next. Drauul shows us how to make a Spewgertan. It's a spewer stuffed into a charger stuffed into a bile titan with rosemary and chives.

New video I'm showing people when they say 500 is useless against titans, nice work. On a side note orbital precision strike 500kg and flamethrower is absolutely insane on bugs eosecially now that fire works in teams

Thank you for explaining this. I appreciate any and all info for this game as a ps5 player. Getting rid of ps5 at sometime though. Question: will the orbital stick to the titan if I throw it directly on it?

I only see one problem here. I always try to bait a stomp attack where he stands still for like 5 seconds while stomping around him and then throw the 500kg dead center below him. But often it gets dropped from am angle where it lands under it. Because it doesn't come down straight from above, it's shotbout diagonally from the eagle dropping it. So while I know direct hits 1 hit kill it, I often don't get direct hits even when he was standing still on top of the steategem beacon. But I didn't know the precision strike can straight up one shot it, so very nice info right there. Any tips on how to get the 500kg to consistently hit it directly instead of landing right under it? As I said, even when the beacon is going through tge thing, so it stands on it perfectly, the actual bomb often gets shot below is as ot comes down diagonally, not straight from above like the precision strike.

Very nice!

"cookie-jar bait" is terminology I'm going to have to use more often

You can also increase the damage and accuracy of your stratagems by T-posing. You can also stop Eagle-1 from hitting you by avoiding the temptation of calling in an airstrike at the pelican right before extracting

Nice to know, usually I was just trying to run behind them so they stay in place trying to turn around.

Nice work really…you just got a new sub 👍+1…thanks for sharing it will reflect in you next war bond 💸

ty, my main strat was the 22m range that they spit at, but it doesn't work if the sac is shot out, and the range seems inconsistent. ty for the strat, liberty speed your step

Hey, for the 500kg you did end up taking damage. Your shield gen covered whatever damage the 500kg would’ve done as it dissipated. Any clarification on how to stay near it without taking damage?

I think it’s the placement sometimes that I miscalculated

Needed this, didn’t realize how to bait them. Normally I just run like hell. My buddy is better at it but didn’t have tips for it so I usually run crowd control

Damn dude I can't even imagine getting that good with precision.im always too panicked to be that good at aiming lol Nice job.

I always thought precision’s strike is like fall on the exact location it was call in but then i learn that it have auto target system like the orbital railcanon just a smaller radius. Instantly make it the best stratagem.

You can also use when the bile titans do the spit attack to force the hit. If you drop the strat just a little bit in front of them when they spit. The spit will end with them coming foward slightly which results in the 500 kg landing directly under them for the perfect kill.

Good stuff, The variable is the teammates changing the attack pattern. Work together💪

I use PS and eagle strike always because I use stuns and love one hitting heavy enemy's. Thanks for the great tips. My third is mission specific and then I have my support weapon.

I love this game. Its brings me back to left4dead days, same level of fun. I also bring both and most often i drop it under me feat after i get enemys attention..

one thing to know is the 500kg will always come at an angle from behind you when you throw it. Knowing that makes it a lot easier to not hit terrain

This is hella impressive. I am way too panicky to pull this off, but I shared it with my friend ReeseTheKraken - this strat is right up his alley! This move makes you the

Ty for video

I usually just call it "kiting", like back from MMO / WoW days. It's so easy to Precision Titans. People always tell my nice shot for them, but it really just takes practice on how to manipulate them around terrain, and timing it for the call-in time.

I stopped using the precision strike because even after i distracted the bile titan to stay in place, the precision airstrike would miss the marker by more than 10 meters and do nothing.

Ppl really do sleep on precision strike just because it's the 1st strategem you get. The explosiveness is strong enough to clear even a pair of bile if you land it right between 2 of them, and the short cooldown makes it so you dont feel too hampered missing or just using it for a small horde. Only real downsides compared to railcannon is it's reliability (especially on orbital scatter) but with practice it's deadly for dealing with biles

Dancing around is probably the hardest thing to do for these kinds of maneuvers, especially when there are a few charges around you (and chaffs). But yes, I have landed precisions on Titans more so than KGs. The success rate is just not that high.

It's important to make sure the Titan is aggro'ed on you. A lot of the times these strategems miss is because the Titan is chasing a teammate that just won't stop running.

May I just say the EAT and jet pack combo is one of my favorites in game. Two eats straight to an open mouth of a bile titan and it’s dead.

My issue is that i've had direct impacts, and the bile titan just walks it off. Which sucks since I like both of these stratagems.

People tend to forget that that bile titans receive 90% less freedom during the spit animation. Just have to understand their animations affects freedom delivery.

Huh, I definitely watched a bile titan survive a direct hit from an orbital precision and stopped bringing it, but… Maybe it was lag or a bug or something, cause it clearly works just fine. i’ll give it another shot

Has the precision orbital been nerfed? i get 1 hit kills on titans much less consistenly even with direct hits

nice one. been kinda doing that with orbit precision strike and killing titans.. i dun use 500kg but using similar tactics with regular airstrikes..

Is it me or do chargers and bile titans seem easier in difficulties lower than Suicide?

As with most things in this game, it's not the tool, it's the user.

Railcannon = 4 minutes cooldown -sometimes doesnt even kill the Titan Precision Strike = 90 seconds cooldown -takes planning but is a reliable 1 shot Should they buff the Railcannon to be 3 minute cooldown and do more damage 🤔

Is it really safe to dive that close to a 500kg? You're using personal shield in every clip, but I don't like to use that in all my missions. Will I take damage if I'm not using it?

Both stratagems are a solid pick for anti tank shenanigans. I generally run the 500kg with a gas strike, since the eagle is my anti tank and the gas is my horde clear. If you want a different eagle, say the airstrike, 500kg becomes less efficient and it’s better to replace it with the OPS. Both do the same thing so it’s just up to preference. I prefer the OPS for being more independent from other stratagems, but the two uses of the eagle bomb are a pretty nice feature

Do Bile Titans always attack with the front right leg????
