Helldivers 2’s Latest Update Has Made One Enemy More Terrifying

One of Helldivers 2’s Terminid bugs appears to have been secretly buffed after the latest update, which was released several days ago.

On a Reddit post, WhiteRaven_M shared that the key to this newfound success lies in anticipating the Bile Titans’ spit attacks, which have a predictable range of approximately 20 meters. By strategically positioning themselves and timing their attacks, players can land devastating blows using powerful Stratagems like the 500kg Bomb and Orbital Precision Strike. These are two of the most powerful stratagems in Helldivers 2.

Beating the Bile Titans With an Eagle 500KG Bomb or the OPS

The player suggests others use this strategy as soon as a Bile Titan crawls out of a breach, which indicates that the spit attack is ready. According to the Reddit post, players should ping a Bile Titan to see the distance, and when it’s around 25–30 meters away, they should throw a 500KG Bomb or an OPS on the ground. Then players should walk 22 meters away from the beam and wait as the Bile Titan walks toward the player. When it’s 20 meters away, the creature will start doing its spitting animation at the exact same place where the 500KG Bomb/OPS was placed. After the animation has started, it’s fine to move because it won’t make the Bile Titan walk toward the player, and the strategem placed on the ground will go off and deal massive damage to the creature.

Other players in the community are also constantly looking for clever ways to deal with Helldivers 2‘s Bile Titans and the comments section reflects that by offering more strategies and experiences. Players discuss techniques like diving away from 500kg bombs, which surprisingly increases survival rates, and even debate the mechanics of explosive resistance. Most players mention that it’s possible to stay closer to the beast when the bomb goes off, because explosion damage is significantly smaller when a player goes prone.

Other players suggest agile movements instead of staying 20 meters away. A lot of them would choose to stay closer to the Bile Titan and dive or crawl on the ground when the bomb goes off. This gives them an opportunity to use other strategems and weapons to deal even more damage. With the balancing changes for strategems and weapons in Helldivers 2 patch 01.000.300, players are sure to come up with more tactful gameplay attacking strategies in Helldivers 2.
