You explode them into face of someone sitting on terminal

try slug + choke

ocean spindle
#

why

keen path

😄

hard nexus
#

well that doesnt have to be on terminal

#

cfoam u make em blind effectively softlocking

near zealot
#

that's a good point actually, the only pen thing that isn't that good is the sentry

ocean spindle
#

it's surprisingly ok

#

just gotta make good use of it

#

and more of its back dmg cause it's the only sentry that has it

wet bear
ocean spindle
#

so aiming in the back in a position where it pens enemies it's nice

#

it's ok

hard nexus
#

are we playing the same game

wet bear
#

Yes

hard nexus
#

u put lowest settings and its still 20fps

#

no one has bloom enabled

keen path

#

I'm not convinced the bloom toggle does anything at all.

tardy ingot
#

very solid weapons and good beginner guns

hard nexus
#

half of the graphics settings do fuck all tbh

wet bear
#

On some angles it's like a mini sun with bloom

#

Same with mines especially in dark rooms like beginning of R6D1

near zealot
#

maybe add pen damage nerfs so it's just an added bonus instead of multi kills? let hel rifle keep the full pen and make the mains the weakest, that keeps auto and to an extent shotgun strong at their stagger niche while making Revo and Gun way less problematic and more added utility. as it stands the only way they can balance them properly is by making the guns worse to compensate for the strength of pen in this game (ammo econ) or nerf the pen and nerfing the pen makes more sense and makes the guns still satisfying to use

minor fractal
#

HEL Shotgun and HEL Rifle are equally problematic, if not more-so.

near zealot
#

I think nerfing the hel rifle will kill it unfortunately, its in a really bad position for balance. It's really good right now but it can be really trash very quickly

minor fractal
#

If it keeps 20 damage on subsequent hits, I think it functions fine.

#

Because imo it is the stronger option for harder content

#

Every special enemy, it shreds.

near zealot
#

Yeah maybe, I think HEL Gun is just better in more cases but it's undeniable they are both solid top tiers for specials. HEL Rifle also completely outclasses Sniper so that's also a problem. IG we'll have to let them cook for hopefully a new balance patch that may or may not ever come and hope they don't pull a bullpup

stiff hearth
#

I did 90% of my progress with hel shotgun + Prec Rifle

minor fractal
#

I don't think it's true that HEL Rifle outclasses Sniper.

#

It is currently one of the best giant answers when you have a multitude of giants at once, but Sniper is more-so outclassed by BC.

#

Similar range and control, much better for bosses, much better for smalls, and a bit better for giants.

tardy ingot
#

tbf those guns dont outclass sniper cuz they are that insane at it

its cuz sniper is also kinda dogshit

#

also tbf hel rifle even without pen at all would probably still be pretty fine

near zealot
# minor fractal It is currently one of the best giant answers when you have a multitude of giant...

I don't really think Giants are particularly good in the first place so maybe that's where we disagree, chargers are way bigger problems IMO and HEL Rifle steamrolls them. Giants are very slow and very easy to stagger, and like you said BC can do basically anything Sniper can except oneshot Giants in a single bullet and you lose a lot of value from your sniper if the giants gets damaged at all because of overkill, which it probably will unless you call it out. Plus Sniper unfortunately trash tier for bosses. HEL Rifle also doesn't use headshots at all so I think it's personally better into giants because it doesn't overkill as hard and can let you team kill just as fast due to head precision

tardy ingot
#

remember its basically high cal. But exchanges range for charge up/cooldown aswell as 1 less per mag

hidden ridge
#

AR, but it pens 2 targets

#

yes or no?

tardy ingot
#

The issue is that all pen guns kinda work even without pen in the at least „pretty decent“ tier

hidden ridge
#

I just want a full auto main weapon that ain't PDW or hel pp

hidden ridge
#

to the back, but still

#

To be fair you did write "one bullet" but I feel that's very limitative considering it's a burst weapon

#

Also, I'll say that I dont like reasonings like "weapon X doesn't onetap enemy Y" because you've teammates shooting too, so if weapon X does 80% of the damage, that's a big deal

minor fractal
hidden ridge
#

I liked Sniper because onetapping hybrids is satisfying but tbh that was it

minor fractal
#

Sniper has simply never been a charger or nightmare answer.

tardy ingot
#

Tbf i think r6 sniper would be an ok nightmare answer kappa

Super slug shotgun goes hard

probs a specific one but u probs get better luck asking in the modding server

thanks for the answers

#

But 3-mag sniper was quite good.

#

HEL Rifle specifically is very strong when you have lots of giants up at once, or spawning from a scout wave or second to last alarm.

#

Well, Sniper is not great for going fast.

#

I think in a casual run, it has enough targets that it kind of works.

#

Especially hybrids, which are a major nuisance for a large part of the level.

mossy dome
#

does anyone have a recommendation for which level would be best for attempts on the "Controlled Response" achievement?

silent delta
#

honestly i think sniper shines best in hybrid-spam levels

#

they're faster and smaller than giants, and have more health, so there's no brain dead two-burst BC

#

they tend to hang out further away from you and may have other enemies in between

past mesa
#

Because a single pellet of hel shottt at 400 meters can stop the hybrid shooting

silent delta
#

well yeah stagger is all well and good

#

but also killing them is nice

#

listen when i say "sniper shines" i dont necessarily mean "shines above other options" i more mean "its the best ur gonna get out of the gun"

past mesa
#

it is really good hybrid option but with proper play

#

Hybrids shouldn’t ever get to act

tiny wyvern
#

I mean it also shines when you have to fight a kraken

silent delta
#

i mean yeah obvi bc or choke mod or hel rifle works too

#

possibly even better since they're more versatile

#

but if they're just chucking hybrids at you endlessl

#

y

#

like uhh

#

r6c2?

#

whichever r6 level

#

you know the one

past mesa
#

is pretty good here

silent delta
#

i guess those zones are pretty close quarters compared to some others

#

so they cant snipe you from range as easily

past mesa
#

Yeah also sniper sentry can be good there

#

Also I think there is maybe play to just ignore the hybrids

#

And just go

silent delta
#

if you have four people who know exactly what they're doing then maybe

#

but ive mostly played that level with people who are competent but dont have the level memorized

silent delta
#

ive used it post-nerf

#

unironically, i think BC is way better

#

you can almost pop a tumor without reloading

tiny wyvern
#

Depends on which one you're doing

silent delta
#

i suppose

past mesa
#

It is a hard toss up

silent delta
#

i can say with confidence it is far better for r8b2 secondary

past mesa
#

r6d1 sniper feels really good

silent delta
#

i dont think ive played r6d1 since sniper nerf

past mesa
#

R8e2 scatter feels really good

#

And bc and Pr and others

silent delta
#

lmao i have yet to play r8e1

#

r8e2*

#

ive heard nothing but horror stories

past mesa
#

It is a really good level

#

I enjoy it I think it is one of the best send off levels we could have hoped for and gotten

digital mural
past mesa
#

I wish it was harder but it is really good

ocean spindle
#

e2 my beloved

silent delta
#

eh

#

i think that for a game like gtfo, from what i've heard, r8e2 gets the job done

digital mural
#

its basically a test of your skills

silent delta
#

hard as balls for the average player, perhaps not quite as difficult as it could be for vets

digital mural
#

all of your skills

silent delta
#

but we're definitely hte minority

#

or y'all are the minority

#

im definitely not "r8e2 is easy" tier lmao

ocean spindle
silent delta
#

but my point is i think its hard enough since its gonna be cbt for most people

#

and if yall want a harder challenge then modded is dope

digital mural
#

the only hard part of E2 is like the first 30 mins tbh

silent delta
#

less timeloss on reset

past mesa
ocean spindle
#

issue for e2 is not being harder cause it needs to be harder as a whole
but parts of it being harder than others

silent delta
#

i mean r4c3 only has one hard part and its at the very end

#

and that sucks

past mesa
#

Is crazy

ocean spindle
#

the first half works rlly well but the second one with some spoils i won't say it loses it

where are you failing

We were clearing just fine till we came across a group of 5 sleeps all next to eachother in a cramped spot

He got too close to one as we were lining up shot lines

narrow niche
#

which zone

little brook
#

And we instantly got downed

#

I think the 2nd zone in

narrow niche
#

shot... lines?

little brook
#

Since we were duo's we lined up our shots to take out 2-3 sleepers at a time then melee the rest

#

if we couldn't use melee for the whole thing

#

Watching that stealth video atm

ocean spindle
#

with a hammer/spear, aim for the back of the head [or just the head if u cant] and then don't full charge, but charge as long as u can before it attacks or screams

frail heart
#

ya dont shoot if theres a lot in the room melee as much as you can

ocean spindle
#

if you really feel like u cannot melee so many enemies
shot the ground or one of em, close the door that leads into that room and mine it

narrow niche
#

Unless they are literally all within each other's close aggro range

#

That would be

#

Funny

#

But probably not

little brook
#

From the video and what ya'll said, it looks like we were overestimating how quickly they'll alert the whole room/others around them

ocean spindle
#

yeah it's not rlly a instant everyone is awake

silent delta
#

either that or just clear everythign else in the room and use guns

ocean spindle
#

it's until they scream

silent delta
#

if you aren't confident in your melee or wakeup manipulation

silent delta

in the room with the big pit

and like 80% of the time they are literally inside each other

Do ya'll have a recommended main weapon? I'm abt to hop on and practice learning the stealth mechanics but dunno which guns to bring (My special is the Drekker Del p1 for the thermal scope)

grizzled patrol
#

Sawn off

silent delta
#

try out guns see hwat you like

grizzled patrol
ocean spindle
silent delta
#

but for what is generally accepted to be the best in main slot, in no particular order:
hel shotgun, sawed off shotgun, carbine, hel revolver, dmr, double tap rifle

#

maybe heavy smg

#

pdw if you want thermal

#

as long as you dont bring burst pistol your main slot will do something

grizzled patrol
#

Pistol is quite underrated

little brook
#

I'll try out that list, thank you :D

ocean spindle
#

yeh just experiment r1 is ur time to experiment

#

experiment also with ur special

#

don't bring prec rifle all the time cause eventually a level will not be good for it

#

and u will need to change it

silent delta
#

generally speaking, dont bring burst pistol short rifle or sniper, and you can still get value

thats another one

thank you

Is it possible to pull off that stun lock for giants shown in the stealth video if I'm using a knife?

#

Like it'll always be back to me right

#

if im quick

silent delta
#

consistent? probably not

#

you have to get backstabs

#

so if the giant spins around weird it throws everything off

grizzled patrol
#

I dont remember the conditions for the Giant to start spinning

silent delta
#

is it possible to manipulate it?

grizzled patrol
silent delta
#

idk

narrow niche
#

:P

silent delta
#

if you're practicing soloing giants, id recommend using spear

narrow niche
#

either way just stay in the same angle until the animation concludes

silent delta
#

the extra melee range helps you get the hang of things without putting yourself in danger

little brook
#

Shit I already dropped 😭

and it should be the back

id recommend practicing with every melee

they all perform differently

I like the knife more anyways, I'll just get good ✨

#

it is easier on the head cuz knife has a prec multi but you can do it on limbs too

near zealot
# silent delta any limb break is a guaranteed stagger

sometimes they spin weird if you do limbs which is why i recommended head, but that is facts. at least for the first hit. plus I think the knife precision and sleep modifier makes it a consistent 4 hit just like spear/sledge

silent delta
#

really the best way to solo kill a giant with a knife is to use a gun

near zealot
silent delta
#

eh

#

once you get the muscle memory for a scout kill its pretty repeatable

#

giants are a lot less predictable cuz you have to hit them so many more times

#

and you know, fuck up once and theres half your health gone

near zealot
#

scout got those wonky neck zones on knife i hate it

silent delta
#

just jump headsas

near zealot
silent delta
#

eh ive like never done it with knife

#

hammer enjoyer

grizzled patrol
#

i just dont get it

#

why tf do the beginners always try tro push the reactor waves further from them

civic wave

because they don't understand reactor spawn mechanics or the consequences of timing

#

Testing out the spear after a rough scout x knife encounter, what are the charge amounts I should know?

silent delta
#

uh

#

max for everything, ish

little brook
#

Oh damn

silent delta
#

max backshot or slightly less for headshot

#

it has lower base damage than sledge

#

idk the percentages off the top of my head cuz i dont use spear lmao

ocean spindle
#

rlly for scouts there's no reason to full charge always

little brook
#

what abt the precision bonus?

ocean spindle
#

spears base dmg it's like 17.5 and it has a 1.5 prec multi

#

when charged

little brook
#

So a half charge headshot to a standard sleeper should do the trick right?

silent delta
#

something like that

ocean spindle
#

yeah

silent delta
#

idk when im not in a rush i usually go for full or almost full charges anyway

#

less brain space

ocean spindle
#

probs less ngl but charging it's weird

#

charging on this game auments like- what was the word...
cubically ?

brave otter
ocean spindle
#

i don't think they are there yet

little brook
#

im still in rundown 1 but when the time comes I wont be the spear user waking up the whole room 🫡

silent delta
#

thats the spirit

#

spear in general is just kinda ass lmao

ocean spindle
#

i mean just some enemies u can full charge cause there's no need to not do it
scouts, the r1c2 enemies u might know already...

little brook
silent delta
#

its great for new players cuz the longer melee range helps you learn how to stealth in safety

#

but once you get a bit better its heavily outclassed by sledge

ocean spindle
#

yeah it's a very good learning melee but u eventually outclass it

silent delta
#

keep at it!

#

i believe

little brook
#

Ugh I miss the sledge, being able to bop sleepers so quickly was heavenly

silent delta
#

for sledge

silent delta
#

sledge best melee i will not be taking criticism

ocean spindle
little brook
#

I need the range bonus

ocean spindle
#

u can also melee those with hammer but that's fair tbh

silent delta
#

hammer is slightly more risky

ocean spindle
#

once u get practice with spear on those too u can swap

silent delta
#

because if the giant does a silly and just decides he doesnt feel like staggering, you do have a moment when you're in his melee range

brave otter
#

knife kill a giant

ocean spindle
#

both hammer and spear have kinda low stagger in general

#

it's just the range on the spear

silent delta
#

i mean i guess

#

but hammer's good at limb breaks

little brook
#

Im in zone 91c r1c2 rn and there's 2 giants right next to eachother + a small hoard 🥲

silent delta
#

which is staggers

narrow niche
little brook
#

Yeah

silent delta
#

no bots?

brave otter

silent delta

yikes

hammer still has 2nd best stagger though so

melee what you can and then shoot the rest

# little brook I need the range bonus
  1. 2 players (both with sledge preferably, but any combo works) decimate giants
  2. you can alwaays shoot them. Remember, double dmg from behind -> fast and efficient kills

Im so upset

probably

tardy ingot

hammer has higher skill cap

lone mortar

Did you pull them in and run pass them?

silent delta
#

ive had some newbies tell me that they like sledge but it charges too slow for them

lone mortar
little brook
#

YO I DID IT

silent delta
#

which idk maybe they just arent precharging enough but the bat is almost twice as fast

#

WOO

little brook
#

Got hit once tho

silent delta
#

GOOD SHIT FLUFFY

lone mortar
#

But wheres the wave and scout wave

silent delta
#

hey, its a starting point

civic wave
lone mortar
#

I didnt see anything

silent delta
#

just make sure you stay back while you're charging, then walk forward to swing before backing off again

#

also make sure ur first hit is the back of the head if you arent already

tardy ingot
civic wave
#

just watch my pov if you want to see me swerve around 3 nightmare scouts and like 6 strikers

tardy ingot
#

honestly the run before that where all 3 of you died goat

#

i had the perfect pov of the full wave

#

went from 90 hp to 5 real quick

lone mortar
#

That explains the reason why i only saw the shot gun barrage of nightmare scouts

tardy ingot

the potato barrage was the best

0 deaths is really doable but time save is insanely hard to make it through

brave otter
tardy ingot
# little brook Ya'll legs or back of the head first

with most guns you dont aim fo the head on giant strikers

the reason is that they have a considerably low head crit multiplier of 1,5x
that together with most guns having a crit multi of below 1x means most guns will only do like 10% more dmg on the head. Which legit doesnt matter

hel rifle for example does 30. Giant strikers have 120 hp. So 4 shots from the front
if behind (2x dmg) its 2 shots

#

helldivers became too metagamed for me once you hit 8+

lone mortar
brave otter
#

wait did they add a new diff?

lone mortar
#

Not new diff

#

But the positioning, no weather and good cover makes it very hard to not be backshotted by 6 rocket devas

brave otter
#

ah

lone mortar
#

Its not about the diff

brave otter
#

the fun of being shot from like 100 meters by like 30 rockets

lone mortar
#

Also

#

Did you know enemies have a bug where they get pushed into big rocks

brave otter
#

yup i remeber that bug

lone mortar
#

And they can shoot inside them out to you

#

Its still there Trolley

#

Imagine getting peppered by 2 gatling devas or a factory strider guns from the wall

brave otter
#

i stopped playing helldivers because i maxed out everything in like a week, did like 100 hours in like 5 days and all everyone wanted to do was the morter farming which was boring af

topaz anvil
#

Sometimes games be like that

brave otter
#

and theyd hit max level then try to join my helldives and would lose like 15 lives because they thought that just because they're max level they could do what they wnat

lone mortar

Just chill in every experience

#

Elden ring and helldivers are good training for one to totally get rid of the panic roll

narrow niche
#

did i not read something or

tardy ingot

they asked for guns id assume

#

considering we just talked about shooting giants

#

but ye with melee obviously occi (unless in a team situation, then it sometimes depends)

narrow niche
#

:P

#

i just read "occu or leg first"

#

which was

#

certainly a message

little brook
#

Do big strikers always wake up a whole room or do they need to call aswell?

civic wave
#

every enemy needs to scream to wake an entire room

tardy ingot
#

their scream animation just doesnt usually happen

#

so they kinda just weirdly stand still and scream/groan

little brook
#

Ok so I prolly wasn't stunning it fast enough

tardy ingot
#

yea complete solo stealthily takes practice

#

but it also isnt rly necessary

#

2 players can easily stealth anything if they have the space
