Helldivers 2 - This Fire Build Is out of Control! Kill Record (Helldiver Difficulty, Solo) 

Two things in particular I like about your videos: Your upbeat, positive attitude no matter what happens, and that even when you make a mistake or something goes wrong, you have no problem sharing that with us. While I'm not anywhere near your skill level, it's good to see that some issues (setting oneself on fire...) happen to everyone, not just me. Thanks, always a pleasure!

Holy shit I found John Helldiver

37:14 yo that hunter in the air ate shit, great flick

my daily dosis of takipo just arrived. Time to relaxe

Just happening to hit a random hellbomb right when the bile titan was next to it at 34:13 was beautiful

dang, opening with a banger stalkr double clap

The Flamethrower has been my go too for bugs ever since I did a helldive misson with my buddy. He dolphined dived down this hill yelling,"Light them up!!!" I just started spraying flames everywhere all I saw was my counter go too X138💀

Man, you are a savage. Subbed just to keep watching how to improve my solo skills. Since the patch I am struggling with 4s and 5s. Watching you clown a 9 is humbling and awesome! :)

so glad they keep hearing the feedback from the community

flamethrower is so much fun after the DOT fix

great content! I really love stuff from smaller channels because it is often very nice and heartfelt. Like you kindly giving bugs cups of liberTEA

99.99% of Helldivers: Marching on Arrowhead HQ with pitchforks over increased patrols and nerfed primaries. Takibo: Let's try and hit a record number of kills on solo before they take away the challenge. "Where's my bug breach?"

Sick pod kill on those stalkers at the beginning!

Your video came out while I was duoing with another Helldiver where we both had a full flame meme build: flamethrower, incendiary shotgun, non-impact incendiary grenades, incendiary mines, napalm strike. I took the grenade pistol as well to help with the holes. Then a third frend joined and decided to bring the same build. Chargers go down so fast with three flamers hosing them down!

One really useful tip I've been using against the hunters is "parrying" them. If you melee them right before they make contact you can interrupt them which is actually a game changer. Would love to see you try and implement this in future vids! @Takibo

Heyy takibo I noticed ur able to move while calling in stratagems despite using the default wasd input. Do you use a separate key for your movement ?

This is so awesome. I kept watching solo videos where people would explain how NOT to trigger more bug holes. But here you are like let's trigger every bug hole possible! Hahaha

I love using this loadout. Grinding for enhanced combustion was worth it 100%

Hey, did you know you could parry most of the bugs with a melee attack? Like when a hunter jumps at you, you can cancel it's attack with a well timed melee hit and not take any damage, it works with any bug you can stagger with your hits basically. I just recently learned about this and it's been a game changer

That helmet always reminds me of black panther while looking from the back

Just wanted to say thank you for explaining how things work, while your playing instead of assuming we know how the spawns work etc

Hope you will try different loadouts when devs bring back proper patrol rate. Personally I would like to see grenade launcher or one of the machine guns:)

Mannnnn, I struggle doing level 7 with a group and you out here burning everything 😂

35:31 when the bile titan just emerges from the darkness. All you see is the silhouette of its legs. This game rocks

Was playing on phact bay the other day and the sandstorm was so cool on that map

Another good vid. 5:20 is a good example of why people hate the Hunters, too. One does the damage that 2-3 should, which might be OK if they didn't also stunlock you, knock you down, and get my drive-thru orders wrong every time. Hunters are to Helldivers what Clash is to Rainbow Six. Take away just a single thing they can do and it'd be 10x better

11:47 Flamethrowers are affected by the in-game wind. I find the flames apreading either farther than usual, veering left or right, or sometimes goung back at me depending on the wind direction.

Say hello to the cook!!!🔥🔥🔥 chef takibo serving bug bbq😂

so do you think we will be getting the illuminate as a third faction or do you think itll be some type of hybrid between illuminates and cyborgs?

What up legend.

Ohh YEAH MORE FREEDOM!

im gonna watch the video later, but when i ran this exact loadout, i got way overwhelmed with tanks even with my friend with a quasar, how do you recommend dealing with this mr john helldiver sir?

taught my 3 year old niece to say "whats up legends" the other day😂😂😂

@takibo how do you input stratagems while moving and aiming ?? what are your keybinds

Nice level bro

challenge Idea: Mission completion without stimming once

I dunno if my experience is a fluke but I found it easy to deal with bile titans when you get under them and use the flamethrower directly at their underside. Of course, you risk getting crushed by their dead body afterwards.

You could reroll maps until you get one with a free flamethrower to save a stratagem slot if you wanna go for maximum record breaking

"I don't even know where I'm throwing these grenades" 😂😂

Hmmmmm, roast bug. My favorite kind of bug, yummie

"Spit on them spit on them! Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes YES!" 😂

Chargers sliding all over the place is so realistic, thanks AH.

bro those hunters are deadly, they really do just be killing you in less then a second, even with a shield up.

Legend has it Brasch has an older brother

Putting the "Hell" in Helldiver.

Have you seen OhDough´s insane 2,000 kill Video? It´s awsome 😁

Its amazing how we have a bug loadout and an Automaton loadout. Wonder what the Illuminate loadout's gonna be.

Squad numbers solo!! maybe gas airstrike instead of napalm?, not as good but same role short cd, and can close nest and stuff!

Bro got a 2 for 1 combo against Stalkers in the beginning then a random cross map hellbomb to annihilate a Bile Titan lmao Joel was personally this guys guardian angel this run xD

how do you control the hell pod direction so well? i can barely move mine. U move so quickly and land where u want.

There is nothing more I hate than teams in a team based game, glad to see you decided to do your own thing…….. obviously I don’t mean that, I never leave a man behind

How do you move, look around and call in stratagems at the same time?

Those last 14 kills at extraction are what got you the PR lol

Flamethrower is the goat. I was surprised it got buffed

I’m curious how hard a helldive “all samples” run would be?

2:00 pretty sure there's a bug in the game where if you weapon swap during a certain point in a reload, it reloads the weapon you swapped to without you inputting it, although doesn't look like that happened there.

How tf did not a single bile titan show up till after you were 20min in?

Bro please don't get my fire build nerfed😢

36:45 is a prime example of why the 500KG needs a serious rework. Can't even kill a Titan when it lands directly on it.

Don’t underestimate hunters. I was playing on easy earlier just to see if I could nab some super credits before I hopped off. I swear, they don’t one shot you, but they hit so fast sometimes that they might as well. They’re a bit inconsistent at this insta-kill behavior but it’s happened to me a few times, especially when I get cocky. Helldivers 2 enemies are not known for their consistency though. Sometimes a charger will 1 shot you, sometimes it will send you flying, sometimes it will just kiss you. It’s really strange and I wonder if there’s random numbers going on or if it’s just luck and physics and positioning.

It says here you’re from Portugal 🇵🇹. Isto é verdade?

Nice Franz Ferdinand reference

How about swap napalm to gas strike

I’ve wiffed a 500k and finished the titan with both napalm and regular air strike, so all is not always lost

aw man i wish i could play this game :( it's too expensive on my country tho.

Watch devs not revert the changes because the ceo enacts some managed democracy all over the balance team, or because the balance devs were using the fire dot as a crutch in difficulty 4 missions.

Damn, Verdict doesn't one-tap hunters? That's probably the deciding factor for choosing between Polar Patriots and Cutting Edge as my next warbond. That's disappointing

You should do 2 Player, second Player calls the guns and shield bag so you can have 4 dmg strategems, and the second Player just kills biotitans so you can get the rest, and in down time he goes and clears side missions to improve spawns

In the sandstorm it's almost like the movie Pitch Black, I really have no clue how you can notice stuff to shoot. Also I rewinded like 5 times and I still can´t see the feet @17:00

Can we step back and appreciate Takibo’s current level?

Some people use there time different 😂 gg

Wake up, go to work, come home, watch takibo

Brother, you are out of control, not the incendiary breaker, not the flamethrower. Hopefully in the next update Arrowhead can add the takibo stratagem lmao.

20:59 ayo? 🤨

I imagine the kill record will get Higher on bots than bugs after the patch since you can farm the detector tower.

What armor?

I was letting the video play in the background and heard spit on him spit on him yes yes yes yes lmao

I want a MAV from Battlefield 4

FLAME

I demand devs to remove the bile titan spit shrapnel

it would be very helpful if you start the video from the mission selection rather than the hellpod

Do you burn the legs of the chargers for fastest kill? I've been burning the body, takes a while

I had 620 and 590 kills on heldiver dificulty while in team 🤷‍♂

Loadout in description says youre using verdict but youre using redeemer ingame

If you had waited just a sec or 2 more at 17:06 that would have been a nice screenshot.

My flamethrower doesn’t kill half as fast 😂wtf

We needed your help with the bots you too busy killing bugs

I thought this guy was hacking by how fast hes running

Ive watched all your videos so far andI think you would have an easier time with these kill records if you gave yourself a Guard Dog or guard dog rover. Most of the time you only take shield damage from hunters anyway. I know you like the shield but I think its technically unnecessary, as it gives you opportunities to make more mistakes as its value.

Now do automatons

No more kill records? *megamind no bitches meme*

I have a hard time believing this is tier 9... youre over 15 mins in and havent seen a single bile titan. Id be in tier 6 and would have seen 3-4 already.

Video for kill record for bots??

Are you high? These devs nerf anything fun into oblivion. Way to get the fire build nerfed.

It's too bad they're walking back the difficulty, I kinda like the idea of the highest difficulty solo in a coop game being borderline impossible. It makes it a lot less special of an accomplishment now. If anyone who can complete a mission with a squad can also do solo at the same level then solo becomes meaningless as a test of skill.

I don't love that theyre changing it back.

19:11 bro how do you make your brood commanders do that after blowing their head off??? When I do it the go waddles at me 2x faster then their charging speed and do the fastest 3 piece combo know to man…..

It bothers me getting 2 hit markers with the revolver on hunters and they don’t fall…. WHACK
