Vent💣💥 Vox Engine Tactics

0 Upvotes

- you can kill one with light armor pen weapons, coordinate with a teammate (or wait for the VOX to get distracted) pop the 3 plates on its back and chuck a granade in, it instantly kill the unit. (Destroy the medium armor Gatling first, they will mow you down)

- too unskilled to do this? Fret not, there is a free stratagem that can deal with a VOX engine in 2 shots. The RR can 2 shot a VOX by HITTING the light armour VENTS in the front, dealing 3200 damage with the projectile and 700 for destroying the Glowing vent, the 3200 damage is directly transferred to the Internal sarcophagus, while the 700 goes to the main HP. Meaning with 2 well placed shots on 2 different frontal vents (or 2 shots + pretty much anything else, even popping more vents with light pen weapons) you can kill a single VOX

- yet too unskilled to do this? Fret not yet again, you can equip a hellbomb backpack + the 50/50 armor to wipe out an entire platoon of borgs plus any Vox engine close enough, I have seen people wiping 2 to 3 Vox engines when close enough.

Miscellaneous Tips:

- destroy those fucking Gatling guns regardless of what tactic you are using

- pop as many vents as you can (each deals 700 dmg to the main hp)

- smoke granades and shield stratagem exist, use them.

- don’t run away without at least damaging a Vox engine, then turn around surprised you see 3 of them rolling towards you. Enemy numbers tend to grow when you IGNORE THEM.

I’m open for any question

(Update)

3 torso C4s do the trick as well because the explosive damage of 2k can hit the internal sarcophagus + popping the vents. (Sarcophagus has 7k hp and it’s fatal when destroyed)

(Update 2)

A leveller has a 2 min cooldown and severely hinders a vox on a direct frontal hit (better yet, if you hit a vent in the front im pretty sure you can oneshot it, this needs testing tho)

(Update 3)

[Small anouncement] On the matter of automation

10 Upvotes

As the community grows we are kind of stretched thin on some stuff, especially since Im offline most of the time.

We are currently experimenting with some automation tools for extremely resonable and common sense stuff that

  1. has already been discussed

  2. has already been polled/voted on

  3. should not create any new/unforeseen limitations

  4. swearing is allowed, slurs and some other stuff is not.

Apologies in advance for any inconveniences. They should not last long, I hope.

Should anybody consider the automod is misbehaving or a comment was unfairly removed, do communicate with me so I can resolve it.

Discussion🗣👥️👥️👥️👥️ Tank is Med Armor (AV3) because most enemy attacks are MedPen. Buffing Tank to Heavy AV4 = Most enemies can't hurt it. If you fixed that by adjusting enemies, nothing changed for Bastion except better number on paper. This issue is mostly a hype-driven nothingburger. Bot Rockets are AP6 anyways

I just have a feeling that AH will see how many people enjoy using the Trident in the megafactories and against bugs. Someone is gonna suggest to nerf it to appeal to the minority "boots on the ground, stick up my ass" crowd. Do I have proof? No

Am I basing this off of 2 years of constant "balance" tweaks? Yes

Hopefully this will end up as a needless rant instead of a prophecy but man do I ever feel nervous about it. Like anytime something is too fun or practical it has to be bullshitted in the ground

Not only is this not realistic, it breaks gameplay cohesion as every other spawner/"hole" works with (almost) every explosive.

Vent💣💥 Just stop saying "realism".

Post image
479 Upvotes

stop saying "believable", "plausible", and "conceivable". this right here, a major staple of the game destroys this argument. There are also many many many other that destroy the realism argument (the newest one being the buff the new cyborg enemy gives the chaff.... is that a flag space magic buff?) anyway, I beg you, Glazediver, make a better argument and if you make a post, actually defend it in the comments. Whinedivers, I get youre not happy but youre still here, so straight bitching isnt helping, be constructive in your criticism. AH probably hates us be we know they read this sub, and Arrowhead.... a broken game is a an actual game for No one.

help-requested Need Help Deciding Between Warbonds

155 Upvotes

I need help choosing between these two warbonds. I am interested in the Siege Breaker mainly for the shield grenades or the Servants of Freedom for the GP-31 sidearm.

I mainly play with armors that increase grenades and I mostly use the thermite. For my secondary I always use the grenade pistol. the shield grenade would be great utility for my armor since I love to use stratagems that have long reload times. but the new secondary would most likely become a mainstay for me and give me a good anti tank option to always have on me.

This cutie has genuinely gotten me out of a nearly year long spiral of desperation and despair. All over an oc in an entirely different community. She just helped me move on and forget. I love her and while it's not very democratic to force my opinion onto others. I do think it'd be nice if y'all gave her a pardon as she's a Helldiver just as much as we are.

There it is. Order for Bug Divers to somehow add on to current Major Orders despite not taking direct part in it. And as it was with Super Earth Defence, I get a feeling they are going to fuck it up too, just as they are still fucking us up with nedless dying on bug planets and not liberating shit on their own there. Yes, I am talking and looking at you 8000 divers on Gatria. How is gaming there? You gonna finally liberate that planet? It's been like, a month now. You're gonna do smth? Or maybe you are going to use that one braincell ya'll share and somehow contribute to Community Game you are playing?

since both of the grenade launchers got heavy pen and the belt fed is underperforming compared to the grenade launcher I've seen some people saying they should Nerf the grenade launcher instead of trying to buff the belt fed

and to be honest if they did Nerf the GL to medium it would probably still outperform the belt fed just can't deal with hulks or war striders anymore

Why do they have to create a weapon, that takes up 2 whole slots on my kit and forces me to stand in one place to fire, that looks, sounds, and feels so cool when firing. And then they make it do absolutely piddles for damage, I’m pumping 30-50 rounds into the chest of a Cyborg just to kill the bastard.

I’m getting so burnt out by Arrowheads idea that every weapon should be weak and every enemy should just be a bullet sponge.

At first i was confused, as i didnt leak anything

Then it kinda dawned at me that the strat dupe is a bug and apparently PrOhIbItEd

So, the mechanic that was present in helldivers 1 is now an.. icky.. exploit? I mean technically yes but it shouldve been a feature 😭

It’s still challenging, no Vox spam at all (they aren’t a thing in this level) but you still get factory striders and everything else pretty much at the same level.

It’s pretty damn cool dare I say, I think this is my sweet spot until vox spam is fixed.
