Bet you didn't know these HELLDIVERS 2 TIPS to take down the new FLYING TERMINID ENEMIES!

They spawn in tree like nests and have a swooping attack that can kill a Helldiver in ONE SHOT

QUIT QUAKIN IN YOUR BOOTS, HELLDIVERS!

Cuz i’ve got the latest Battlefield intel for you on how to take down these flying freaks!

If you’re being chased by a flock of these undemocratic demons stay near a large wall or structure, they can’t attack through solid rock!

Be sure to take them out before they get close enough to attack by shooting off their weak, freedom hating wings!

My gun of choice to take them down is the liberator penetrator

It’ll clip their wings easily and with it’s armor penetrating rounds you can also take ‘em out by putting a bullet right between their non-existent eyes!

What’s your go to weapon for fighting these new flying freaks? Share your intel with your fellow Helldivers in the comments #helldivers2 #videogames

Actually it’s their corpses that can 1 shot, they become physics objects with enough velocity to kill you, that’s why they also go through the shield pack

[aragos]

You can see their nest on the map. Anti-tank rifle from far away and you won't even have to deal with them

[HwhatDaHyell]

Your simple minigun turret turns into a C-RAM real quick when faced with those flying freaks

[NorraProtoGen]

Ive realized recently that they only kill you on one shot if they were diving at you, but they die before they attack, meaning their corpse just lands on you and does impact damage instead of enemy damage. But i could be wrong

[jbhmjh]

The incendiary breaker is pretty good with its wide spread to take them down

I definitely use my sickle on those things. Thanks to it using a coil I don’t have to worry about ammo. just pop one or two. Run. And by the time you reposition the coil has cooled off enough.

“Nice day for a flight isn’t it bill?”
“Yeah the skies are super clear today.”

The laser cannon works like a charm 👌🏾

[themangledwither]

As I grow used to it my go to is the holy bolter (jar 5)

I went prone to respawn a friend, and it seemed like they couldn't hit me. They dove, but it didn't hurt me. I only tried that strategy on one occasion, so further testing is required

The arc works really well. They are the only thing for it to target when you point up.

The Punisher is my go-to for all bugs. Shooting these things out of the sky reminds me of the times I used to go duck-hunting with my Pa back in the ol' Super Farm.

[nwmancuso]

EATs can blast the nests quickly. I agree with using the penetrator and clipping their wings diverts them away from you.

I never thought I'd be shooting lightning from the ground into the sky but here we are. I prefer the arc thrower

[Notbatman]

Spray and pray is surprisingly effective even at range. AA mode activate.

Can also break a nest with 2 eats.

[pidjyplayz]

Honestly if you aim a bit above or below depending on their movement you can one shot them from quite a bit away with the auto shotty

[JerichoYeet]

The first time me, my uncle and sis ever fought these guys when we just dropped in.
And oh boy, we died through the first thirty seconds when those Shrikers came out of nowhere and after getting our barings and killing those flying bugs we realise there's a shriker nest right next to the extract.
So we destroy it with stratagems and they didnt appear through out the operation.
Sadly, despite complating out objective and optional obj.
We couldnt extract because my turret decided it was best to betray both me and my sister when the palican start to open the ramp door.
It was hard and stressful but man, the beginning was just hell when those things exist.

Recoil and expendable rockets can take these out from halfway across the map before they can even spawn and attack. Just remember to account for the drop of the rocket with your distance!

[andrewwhalley]

Auto cannon x10 per mushroom or anti tank/recoiles rifle SLUGGER SHOTGUN works for some reason as well but shoot the mishrooms from across the map
