Hey everyone! Let me know what loadout variation y'all like to run when scorching Terminids! Don't forget to check out our TYL Series where I try your loadouts new video is out now!
“Thank you Helldivers for bringing attention to us with this meta build. We will working on the next patch that will nerf flame further.” - Balancing dev team
Thanks for educating me on that. I rarely look at the premium rotation shop since I'm saving my creds for the war bonds. However, I do need to snag a light armor variant.
This video is a good example as to why I never use the guard dogs. The number of times it shot you in the back and face is staggering. It needs to hover above you, not next to you at head height so that if you sweep your view the wrong way you laser your own face off.
You're definitely not wrong, I tend to gravitate more to the jump pack due to the hyper mobility. However, I wanted to send off as much aggression as possible even if it means lasering my face and back off. It's definitely not the best, but had value when eliminating smaller/quicker terminids.
Both the Light and Heavy Medical armors exist though they're Super Store only, I believe. The Light Medical is my default armor for 40 min Bug missions since you want the extra speed to get around the map quicker, but still get the bonus heals. The Heavy Medical is in the Store right now, as of 5/14/24, and I only got it this morning, but the one Eradicate Bugs mission I took it on went great! Well worth 150SC, especially since it's likely going to be awhile before the next Warbond. I'm not sure I'll ever use the Medium Medical again, since speed is so important for 40 min missions, but durability so much more important for most 15 min ones!
Ima put yall on right quick! So you gotta run with the EMS, gas strike, napalm airstrike, quasar cannon! Your choice on primary weapon and gear! Use the EMS on incoming bug breach on top of that throw the gas and if you wanna go crazier throw the napalm on top all 3 work amazing together and of course use your quasar for the bigger shit! 🤯 your welcome ppl 😂
I just recently unlocked the incendiary breaker and got the flame damage ship upgrade and finally did my first bug mission with the full flamer loadout. It was a breeze. Everything burned in holy fire. Super fun.
It's a lot of fun, also I recently learned from a viewer that if you catch yourself on fire. Just hit your dive key to break the fire damage! (Shoutout Dream)
Happened upon your video (thanks YT!) but I thought I'd share some pointers as this is very similar to what I run and I can appreciate the similar mindset. Flamethrower can be used more as a burst tool because now that the dot damage has been fixed just having a little bit of damage combined with that burn will nuke all of the chaff/mid tier units. Unless you're focusing on something a little bigger like chargers, armored bile sprayers or brood mothers. Diving will always put you out first, making it a bit easier to stim and survive an accidental burn, which will inevitably happen! :D I rotate between the Punisher Plasma and the newly updated Blitzer shotgun as my primary. Plasma is ideal for taking out just about everything but shines when taking down bile titans after they've been hit with a strategem. It's a nice way to have a bit of insurance to take out the heavier stuff. On the flip side, the Blitzer is wonderful with the buffed fire rate, as it will allow you to kite and stun lock most smaller enemies, not to mention how it does pretty dang well dealing with multiple mid-tier enemies at once. And and, infinite ammo.... Always a nice bonus. I've also been leaning into medium armor with the Engineering Perk, as it's always nice to have just one more stun/fire grenade..... :) Nice vid, I enjoyed the breakdown and best of luck with your future content.
"Plasma is ideal for taking out just about everything but shines when taking down bile titans after they've been hit with a strategem." Excuse me, HEEELLLOO? I did not know that LOL. I GOT to try that out. I'm very pleased as well where the Blitzer is at and embarrassingly admitting that I was not getting full value when going ADS with it. Need to hip fire for more arc, but it does wonders. I'd say if I used a Blitzer with this build, I would switch the stun grenade with an incendiary for more burn damage. Thank you for the comment and I hope you enjoy the many more to come!
Great video and love the loadout. I use pretty well the same loadout when fighting bugs but i use the shield pack and the light armor that reduces limb damage. I like the survivability lol. Flame thrower is definitely amazing and i don't even have the ship module yet. I'd love to unlock the incendiary impact as well. Anyway, just subbed to your channel so haven't had a chance to go through your other videos but do you do solo runs?
Thank you very much! I run some solo runs on my off stream time. However, I have a lot of friends playing this game. So I'm typically playing this game with them! I have yet to try out the incendiary impact as I have 20 short away from buying that warbond and I've been told it's pretty good. Thank you again for checking out the channel
@@FrostyHots I'm trying to get a buddy from work to start playing. Not really into the random groups so until then it's all solo for me lol. I gotta say, I was a bit shocked to see your subscriber count. You definitely deserve more subs. Good content, you speak well and don't act like an idiot, although maybe that's the problem lol. Anyway, thanks for the reply and looking forward to the next video!
My go-to build is similar - though I find I never need the extra stims, so I go throwing arm for the extra range on airstrikes. Also, I just like having a robot arm and leg :D The energy shield instead of the rover and I normally go Rail Strike & Eagle Airstrike. But the Incendiary Breaker and Flamethrower are kings of the battlefield right now!
You're a better Flamediver than me haha, cause my god I burn myself quite frequently. I wouldn't mind trying the extra range perk and then synergize that with like incedinary grenade, so it's like a mini napalm for a grenade slot. Thank you for your comment and checking us out!
one thing to add... it does not matter what primary weapon you take - just take whatever you like it does not matter what secondary weapon you take - just take whatever you like it does not matter what grenade you take - just take whatever you like it does not matter what armor you take - just take whatever you like just take the flamethrower, just take the napalm strike, turn in the guard dog rover for an actual useful stratagem - you can use that in difficulty 4 and below since it is useful there, but above that...? it just screams 'I CAN NOT PLAY THIS GAME' since you now have 2 stratagems to customize... take the 380 to just 'run away' from things, and maybe the 500 kg or precision strike to deal with titans or walkers or chargers or hulks. I personally love to use the jumppack, to get on higher rocks, that's where the flamethrower really shines, since shooting directly at the enemy is not as effective as setting the ground on fire where they stand on... so you have a better angle of attack on emenies... also none of the build you posted works on any other than the bugfront.
Thanks for your comment. The point of the builds I post are exactly for Terminids. I enjoy playing against the terminids and sharing my experience with them. Every build that I may post and other content creators may post are always up for critiquing with the users liking. However, this game has such depth because you can literally USE anything. At the end of the day, I just enjoy sharing builds with others and then moving onto the next.
You're not wrong, I thought heavily about it. But the synergy with the stun grenade which allows me to hold them in place for so much incendiary damage was very hard for me to pass up!
Great video as always, excited for the TYL series! I have been using the Dominator lately, do you have a Loadout suggestion for utilizing the dominator?
If you don't have a teammate for horde clear, take horde clear. If you do, take your heavy killer of choice and impacts, maybe an armor with engineering kit
@@weir-t7y When trying out loadouts and wanting to synergize a theme per se, that's how I try to look at my role. I think a solid hybrid build with the engineering kit, would be like a stalwart and EAT. The amount horde clear and versatility is solid with that combo! While also, utilizing the engineering kits passive fully!
@@FrostyHots solid build, though I tend to prefer a more stratagem focused style instead of bringing two support weapons, or I'll go for a backpack if I feel the need. Great point on fully utilizing the armor perk
I might need to farm supercreds to get the steeled vets warbond. Thats the only one I´m missing cause whenever I have enough creds the next one rolls around ^^
My favorite weapons from that one is the Dominator and Breaker Incendiary. I got something cooking for the Dominator, since I actually use it as a side weapon rather than using it as a primary.
I think that including the Guard Dog Rover in a trash-clearing build is too much redundancy, and honestly how can you go past Jump Pack + Flamer for the Mandalorian role play?
haha, I agree. I found using the rover really good cause I wanted more aggression while being ale to have something watching my back. Since using a flame thrower makes you slightly stationary. BUT I can always make a good argument for the jump pack :)
@@FrostyHots I'm not sure how it would work. Maybe some cryo beam that would work similar to laser just that it would slow down enemies. That would be easy to make even from the coding standpoint.
