Ranking All Defensive Stratagems In Helldivers 2

What are the BEST defensive stratagems in Helldivers 2? These are your stratagems that drop down as stationary items. Mines, turrets, shields, and even a lightning rod all serve to help you defend a single location or get away from any particular area. And there are several of these that can put in a lot of work against both bots and bugs. Just be careful as most green stratagems are bad for the automatons meaning you should know what to take and what not to. This is ranking all defensive stratagems in Helldivers 2.

The Galaxy’s Last Line of Offence. Enlist in the Helldivers and join the fight for freedom across a hostile galaxy in a fast, frantic, and ferocious third-person shooter. This is a direct sequel to Helldivers which came out years ago. You fight a couple different alien types in solo or with up to 3 friends. Switch up your gear with missiles from the sky or slow-inducing gas. All kinds of tolls can be used in combat in a variety of ways. And you will be fighting in different environments from the frigid cold mountains to the plant-infested rocky region. Take up arms and push back against the aliens who threaten humanity once more.

The biggest plus with the mg sentry is that it stops firing to change targets while the gatling keeps spraying as it sweeps from one to the next, wasting ammo and killing any diver unlucky enough to be in the swath it passes over between targets.

[AgeOldCure]

Whenever people complain about the slow from my ems mortar, i just remind them that they would be dead instead if i brought a different sentry.

[lukasart]

I like the HMG. It shreds.

Until a charger walks right up to you.

[AggroAggron]

The HMG also has no time limit for its existence, it has to run out of ammo or be broken meaning if you drop it as Evac early you can be sure it will be there.

[SkydivingChiken]

Mortars against bugs is usually very dangerous

[finnthehero]

Hi, I am a Shield Generator Relay stan when it comes to automaton missions. I thank you for putting it in S tier because now I might not get kicked for using one of the best non-meta stratagems.

[phoenixinvictus]

The MG Sentry has superior rotation speed vs the gatling sentry. Worse for chokepoints better for more open deployments plus better ammo efficiency means a longer lifespan if it doesn't get overwhelmed.

10:30 my heart jumped when that turret turned to say hello 👋

[bdycouver]

Appreciate the chart at the end of the video. As I don’t have a photographic memory having the chart makes it easier to refer to and choose the best item…Thanks. Thumbs up.

[Poke-ladd]

I love the ems mortar it helps stall for time when on the run

[someolfellow]

They really need to give the auto-cannon sentry the targeting behavior of the missile sentry. You have to kill all the little bugs to make it target a charger or bile consistently

[Garayin]

I find the Shield Relay is still very useful against the Bugs. It stops Chargers, it draws aggro for no reason (bugs will lose interest in you just to kill the generator), and it shuts down Bile Bugs from mortaring you while you are focused on the bugs in front of you. And of course its fantastic against bots. Highly underrated strategem by most of the community

[JeancarlosRPerez]

Finally my shield generator getting some love. Just throwing this out there but Shield generator + Mech is pretty insane for holding down an objective

[Techigai]

Shield generators can actually stop chargers when they are charging.
It's more of a situational gimmick than something always useful though.

[tekkitdoood]

something to note about tesla tower is that it can clear minor POIs without triggering alarms, so if you're on bigher difficulties its good for preventing bug breaches

[huy]

Nice overview! :)
One thing worth mention, that you need to be on a certain level and have a good amount of resources to be able to "buy" these. So, while the worst ones are really a pain in the ass later in the game, these are your only options on lower levels. I was quite happy to have them. :)

[AGuyWithFace]

The past few days I've been running EMS mortar + Orbital EMS, and it's honestly insane how much it trivializes what would otherwise be a dangerous situation. Bug breach or dropship? Orbital EMS on it and there's nothing they can do while you gun them down. Large outpost? Drop your EMS mortar outside of it and you're fairly safe while you take out the holes/fabricators.

[northernsoul]

Hey Sheen! Good to see you here, loved your Outward content!

[Pygex]

That EMS mortar is so good. If you happen to get all the bugs to a single choke nothing gets through and you can just AOE everything down while they helplessly stare at your team.

[tomduke]

i was finally playing around with the tesla tower and have to say it is incredible! it can hold an entire flank by itself when extracting, compared to any other turret that runs out of ammo in like a minute. just dont place it to close and give it a quick callout with Q so your team knows.
