mannnn I absolutely love trying out new builds and finding new fun ways of playing helldivers... really helps to keep things fresh in a game that can get a bit repetitive at times. Highly recommend u guys try out some new builds if you're the kinda player (like I used to be) who runs pretty much the same build every single mission. If u wana check out some of my other fun themed builds, have a look at some of these vids: Automaxxing (autocannon build): czcams.com/video/9Yaq-MDhK8Y/video.html Laser God (4 x laser build): czcams.com/video/YLLtZLSXsk8/video.html My close look at the buffed Purifier + my purifier build: czcams.com/video/TxgwkyaarKQ/video.html How I use the JAR5 Dominator incl. dominator build: czcams.com/video/_JUAQtGuoAg/video.html Enjoy
They keep trying to buff the guard dog by increasing the damage and durable damage but what it really needs is a bigger magazine and double the reload speed
One big issue is that the GD Rover, while having less damage, does everything the GD does but better. If they don't want to up the mag size, maybe give it the Liberator Penetrator statline. At least then it would be effective against tougher enemies
I agree, the best guns in the games are those with sustained fire capability. They keep flopping with the new assault rifles because you spend more time reloading than shooting
My MG build is Supply Pack, Precision Strike, Airstrike, Stun Grenades and of course, MG-43. This gives me essentially unlimited ammo, and I can still take down the occasional heavy. For Primary I'll often take something like one of the shotguns which gives good close range support, or the Eruptor which is great for taking down nests, since the MG is good enough for swarms.
Giv the explosive crossbow a try. Eruptor is fine but xbow is Silent meaning if you don't want to be noticed taking out the nests or fabs you can start the fight quiet before blowing the lid off with the big guns
I don't really run an mg build but I might try this sometime. I run an overwatch stealth type of build with an auto cannon to keep the gunships and devastators off of squad mates
Themed builds are so much fun. Sometimes it's ok to be non optimal - just go for a vibe and make it work. I really want to try a fire build - flamethrower, inc breaker, inc grenades, inc mines, napalm strike. It won't be optimal but it will be funny.
yeh iv been thinkin of makin a vid about that kinda build.. the only problem is that mines are not really usable in groups, cos too many team kills.. and so u can only really use them in solo play... which aint my vibe at all really hope they add a fire sentry or EXO soon so we can have a fully viable fire build
Woah, I love the strafing run . It absolutely shreds, especially bugs. They take out shrieker nests in one hit, they damage heavy units and can take them out in a pinch.
The bugs tend to make long lines, especially if your team only mad dashes between objectives. I end up being the guy doing the cleanup at the rear. Fun times, though, and I am sure the Eagle-1 pilot enjoys racking up the big kills. 👍👍
Your method of explanation is very beautiful, and your style is wonderful, as if you are a teacher. You even put a written explanation in the video. You have all my respect. Your brother is an Arab who lives in Saudi Arabia. Thank you, sir. ❤
Window Vulnerability is my go-to for killing Chargers, without spending grenades. While it's a bug, I'd really like for it to become a feature skillcheck, just making it more consistent. You can do it practically with any weapon. My initial go-to was Stalwart, until buffed other MG's with faster reload speeds and fixed Peak Physique. It works something like this: Let the charger slide past you and shoot it's hind leg. If the leg is not taking dmg - shoot the sack and then try leg, damaging sack may expose the leg to damage. Once you see that hind leg is taking damage, front legs may also start taking damage, making it easier if the bug turned around and is chasing you again. As a result, in total you may spend much less time and bullets killing chargers, especially if there are a lot of them. It is really easy to do on basic Chargers, and interestingly enough that it's quite a bit harder, but still possible, to do on Behemoths, just requires a bit better timing (so I guess it kinda is a skill-based feature now :D). However, overall it requires good positioning to use successfully, otherwise you might end up slamming into walls hard, especially with Behemoth Chargers. Stunning the bug may prevent vulnerability from coming up, as it ideally needs to be sliding. Funnily enough, you can see Mogz damaging exposed legs by accident at around 9:23 as the bug slid a bit forward, showing that the window was there.
You can take Eruptor against Bile Spewers & Brood commanders & for bug hole closing, then a redeemer for smaller targets Supply pack for just being unkillable (Peak physique armor ability for better comfort with a machine gun) Plasma punisher & 110 MM rocket pods / Any other AT stratagem capable of destroying Bile titan's armor, then aim its meat to kill it Change machine gun sentry to a rocket one to deal with the heavies Take 500 kilo eagle instead of gatling barrage to deal with heavies Or just go nuts and take Gatling & Machine gun sentries, resupply pack, machine gun, redeemer and Breaker Incendiary to be the true god of BULLET
Give the senator a go when you run a light pen shotgun. It cracks head and leg armor on elite units. If you miss too many out of 6 shots to pop the heads of everything in front of you, the armor being cracked lets your shotty do it. You aren't doing stun grenade and grenade pistol though?
You can sacrifice the Machnine Gun Sentry for Precision Strike or Rocket Pods for the Bile Titans if you don't want relying on anyone from the squad. Btw, all machine guns now shred, Stalwart, HMG. Atm the loadout I use most is: Suit with Peak Physique Perk (light for bugs, heavy for Automatons) Dominator, P19 Redeemer, Stun Gren Orbital Presicion, Napalm Airstike, Barrage and Autocannon. You can use a auto cannon Sentry but in my case I really dislike to use them. In this loadout you shred medium armor, you deal with Chargers with the AutoCannon, you can use Precision for Titans and as for the kill counter (if you really care for this) just throw a barrage or Napalm spot on a breach and enjoy. 😊
Damn it, I liked the idea. But I am not ready to completely abandon the anti-tank options and perhaps I will replace the backpack with a high-precision strike or 110 millimeter missile blocks. Well, as a personal weapon, I'll take something more specific, since I'll have a machine gun at the core anyway. Hmm... I think some kind of plasma weapon is good for this, especially with 110mm blocks. Oh my God, I'm really excited about this idea.
@@Starshina200 For bots, I've been trying this build lately, and IMO, if you are a machine gun player, this the combination to play. This combo shines on the bot units people hate the most: Medium Infrantry. You'll find it's really, really good at killing groups of medium infantry. The strategy is this: use the Punisher to stagger/soften up medium-armored enemies (Strider Scouts, Devastators and the Chainsaw Berserkers). Then quick switch to the MG43 and lay waste to them while they're stunned and immobilized. Primate: Punisher Support: MG43 Stun Grenades Armor w/Engineering Kit Perk (for MG recoil, and the six grenades). Your stratagems should give you a way to kill Fabricators, as well as Hulks/Tanks/Factor Striders. Orbital Rail Cannon or Rocket Pods... paired with Precision Orbital Laser or Eagle Airstrike. I like to use Orbital Rail Cannon and Eagle Airstrike. It really depends on the mission and your team. If you don't have the Punisher, a high stagger weapon like the JAR-5 Dominator, or the R-36 Eruptor can do as a replacement. Save the stun grenades for Hulks, and occasions/emergencies when you need them for a big group of enemies. Lone Gunships, you can shoot them down with some patience and cover, by hitting their little engines. Keep a close eye on your target reticule to make sure your shots are hitting the armored engines, and not deflecting off the body of the gunship. Groups of gunships are more difficult, and will surround you if you're not careful. Something to think about. Tanks, you will have to put a full magazine of the MG43 into the heatsink to kill. This seems like a tall order, but might be surprised how often you can pull it off. You can switch to 900 RPM before you assault the tank. You can also take out one of the treads, and immobilize it... but this soaks up a lot of ammo too. So you'll want a stratagem (or a teammate) who can deal with Tanks. The primary/support weapons cannot deal with tanks from the front. Factory Striders, I still don't really have a good strategy with this build. I know it's possible to kill them w/the MG43, via shooting their belly, but I've never gotten it to work. The MG43 really struggles to knock out the Factory Striders front turrets under its chin. So, again, select stratagems (or teammates) who can handle Factor Striders.
@@wolfumz Since scatter is not active for bot missions, I would recommend swapping Railcannon for Precision Strike instead. Precision Strike is overall better against Factory Striders because 1) it has a much shorter cooldown, 2) call-in time makes Precision Strike relatively easy to use, 3) Precision Strike is manually aimed so it won't target the Strider's cannon turret unlike Railcannon and because of 3), 4) you can throw down both Precision Strike and Eagle Airstrike to nearly instantly kill a Factory Strider
@@wolfumz Also personally, I like the default MG a lot, but against swarms of medium infantry or huge concentrations of fodder there is still no better option than the Grenade Launcher.
The HMG emplacement actually has pretty good utility for destroying buildings like shrieker nests from a safe distance in one call down. I don't use it for actual fights unless we are on an objective with a decent position for it. Also I recently killed a low hp bile titan with a laser canon by shooting the green underside of the big tail section, so anything with similar penetration should be able to kill a titan on it's own.
Love this! Been wanting to do a bullet raining build for a while now. For bugs I've been doing a blitzer/rover combo and I'm seeing pretty crazy results. It's tough to play the blitzer without the rover is my only complaint so far. Just not a lot of range and stopping power, but the stagger is great!
I'm glad you shouted out the bullet dog lol, its got great damage but its just in bursts, the ammo isn't too hard to manage but a bad reload can leave you high and dry lol
I'm watching this, and I immediately thought of a way to not only improve the standard guard dog as well as the rover, but differentiate the two as well. •To improve the Guard Dog: increase mag size OR decrease rate of fire while increasing stagger & damage so the dps stays roughly the same. Rather than decreasing reload time (and risk breaking anims, which is probably why they haven't done that); instead allow it to reload without docking, removing the time it takes to relaunch and open fire. •To improve the Rover: Rework targeting so it prioritizes enemies closest to you, with a secondary priority of smallest. Additionally, give it the ability to ignite small swathes of the ground the laser sweeps over, akin to how the orbital laser does. Lastly, as a way to give them additional utility and differentiation, I propose giving them pack use commands, like how the supply pack works: •By pressing down on the D-pad (assuming you're on console) with the guard dog, it remains stationary. This increases individual target damage and armor penetration to medium, switches to a 3-shot burst, and prioritizes larger targets over fodder. Press again to recall, as it does also pull aggro similar to how a turret does. •By pressing down on the D-pad with the rover, it flies to your last mark (pressing R1), and circles the area to patrol, but has some additional utilities; press again to recall at any time. If you mark an objective, it flies to it and performs recon, marking targets within a certain range. If you mark an enemy, it rapidly circles said enemy, pelting it with a constant laser and pulling aggro until it dies or is recalled. If you mark a sentry, it guards the sentry, attacking any enemy that is too close for the sentry to engage. If anyone is in the official Discord, feel free to share this there, if they have a suggestion channel. Hopefully the devs will take it into consideration.
Funny timing, I've just been running a similar build! You mentioned ammo concerns a few times and my logic was the same, so I went with the Supply Pack and the Stalwart, which means I can basically always reposition if needs be and always be shooting (since I can reload on the move). Gatling Barrage and in my case Precision Strike means I can always respond with something, and makes chargers less of a concern for me as I don't bring stun grenades (I lack Democratic Detonation and don't want to be without bug hole killing capability) as well as giving me something to throw at Bile Titans. The real spicy pick is I've actually gone with the Knight as my primary. Using the Stalwart with so much ammo means I basically have that as a primary, and the Knight can be my backup weapon for when I've not reloaded yet but Hunters are about to hit me, and in that situation specifically it has performed pretty well given its crazy DPS. But yeah, the large amount of ammo means I'm not afraid to ramp the Stalwart up to full RoF at the slightest provocation, too, which helps mitigate the armour of some spitters and Brood Commanders somewhat. It's been a blast!
Statistically speaking, the normal guard dog has always been the better of the two, the only thing the Rover has over it is unlimited ammo. The normal guard dog has a better damage stat, better targeting(always aims for head-shots.), where as the Rover just aims at a threat not prioritizing any body parts. The normal guard dog almost almost never kills its user or the users teammates due how it fires. The only thing it needs is the ability to regain mags from the ammo boxes found on the ground in missions, even if it was just 1 or 2 mags it would be game changing. Ive been using the normal guard dog for ages, sadly it has a bug that causes it to miscount kills so that one kill counts as four.
Against the bots, the quick-cooldown EMS sentry will generally serve you better than carrying stun generates now that you can allegedly specify its target, so I'd do that with the orbital rail strike and normal grenades alongside your weapon choices... but that said, damn, I love your commitment to the bit by sticking with the theme. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
The only thing I will personally change for my own taste is the gatling eagle run to the cluster bomb. Not technically bullet swarm but it's a carpet, close enough, and you get 5 uses before the big cool down. Usually 5 is plenty enough to get through a tough battle up to a calmer section where you can manually reset the eagle.
A well trained german soldier would fire his MG-43 in bursts, usually about five rounds. Keeps you from chewing threw the belt and keeps your shots on target. Do not hold tha trigger unless you are so close you can't miss
my personal bullet hell loadout :MG-43 / supply backpack / both the minigun and the mg turret. Depending on my teammates i swap out one of the turrets for gas strike or napalm.
the 900 setting on the mg is one of the best tools for dealing with stalkers. i started running it for that, and then kinda just realized its a beast in most scenarios, and has longevity on the slowest fire rate. its almost so good i wouldnt be surprised if they nerf it, say by lowers the highest setting to 800. you might be interested in a mortar loadout kinda like this one mg one. grenade launcher, plasma shotgun, mortar sentry, ammo pack, grenade pistol, maybe the ems mortar? the fun thing is being able to lob a ton of damage over walls or distances. more or less shooting straight up with the grenade launcher for example, you can actually get pretty good range. the hang time makes it hard to be accurate, so it is more about covering an area with splash. the grenade pistol and plasma shotgun also have high arcs. the only thing is for this to be standoff you need visibility over 100m, and the game constantly seems to be nerfing visibility to 10m, so it doesn't seem like the game wants you to be playing with a mortar loadout, but it is a fun different approach to the gameplay.
Suggestion, the Infinite Stalwart build. - Stalwart - Supply backpack - Expendable missile launchers - Stratagem of choice Maximize RPM and go nuts because you will NOT run out of ammo.
Strafing run is an amazing eagle call in and saying otherwise is super slander towards Eagle 1, our most prized gun in the sky, this is a warning, you only get one.
One huge advantage of the MG backpack over the laser is the greatly reduced number of friendly fire kills. Fun build. I agree the MG43 is underrated. Against BOTs, one feels the lack of heavy armor pen unless someone else picks up the slack.
This inspired me to run a machine gunner build. Mg-43, hmg emplacement, gatling sentry, and orbital gatling barrage. Pair that with some heavy armor. Its a great support build and can handle armor if your positioned right. Plus the hmg emplacement is slept on. Place it properly and at SHREADS everything up to hulks. First build that got me away from my amr sniper build.
I've been running a variation of this for a while when I can get away with not taking the anti-tank role. I use the laser guard dog instead, for obvious reasons, and the Eagle Air Strike which is probably one of the best all around get-all-the-jobs-done stratagems there is. The only other build I've messed around with that consistently gets me in the neighborhood of the same kill count is a grenade launcher build I use. I prefer to use the grenade launcher build on heavy bile spewer planets and the machine gun otherwise but it's not a hard rule, they're both effective.
Don't forget, you can go full Predator "CONTAAACT" mode with this setup which increases your testosterone production to Arnold Schwarzenegger levels. 😂
this seems like a really fun build. How bad is the ammo economy with the mg? Have you experimented with bringing the supply pack instead of the guard dog?
yep that was my original build (supply backpack) but i found that i wasnt needing to use it cos i prioritise using MG only for medium armour, chargers and urgent swarm clear. Otherwise used sickle. so i think ammo economy rly depends on how much u wana use the MG
My go-to is Supply Pack with Mg-43, plus Railcannon and 500KG to drop on anything my MG can’t deal with, heavy armor, HE grenades and grenade pistol for Fabs and Holes, and either the breaker incendiary for bugs, or either the Adjudicator or Eruptor for bots. Gotta have that extra little medium armor pen option for when my MG needs to be reloaded and I’ve got like, 5 devastators breathing on my face.
This is actually surprisingly similar to a build I've recently made, tho mine is more an all-arounder build. Basically so I can be ready and prepared for any situation in some way or another. And, of course, the machine gun stratagem is my main weapon of choice lol
Ive been running machine guns since the game has come out. machine guns are underrated, and i still have so much fun using them to destroy hoards of bugs.
Against the bots , I would rather go with the HMG. My personal build using machine guns is : Bots - HMG , punisher plasma , stuns, ammo pack or shield , eagle strikes (I don't have the grenade pistol) , precision strikes. That can cover everything all around , even taking care of Sauron eyes and jammer with the precision strike For the bugs , I would take your build , just replacing the turrets for a 500 kg to make it viable against bile titans. The Gatling feel enough to deal with rest.
I've been always interested in WW2 small unit/infantry tactics and always loved the fire support role in a squad/platoon. In every military shooter game, I love playing as the guy with the machine gun, going prone and just laying down suppressive/covering fire
I use Mg-43, auto cannon sentry, eagle air strike and orbital precision strike. Its a good balance for me. Also i use the adjudicator, the grenade pistol and incendiary grenades. It helps with crowd control.
Nice video, I've been using a similar build recently because I love MGs and got tired of using the flamethrower all the time. Still working on getting the grenade pistol, and I usually bring the laser drone and either the 500KG or Railcannon instead of gatling. The MG is just way too fun.
I use the MG-43 and Supplypack combo regularly against bugs with good success. Let me say that if I could engrave anything onto my weapons in game I would put "Till it's empty" on my MG-43. I'll have to try the sentry with it.
I usually like being on crowd control when fighting bugs if the other players have Anti heavy strats. The little guys can pile up if not dealt with immediately.
I just realised something fun; could do ‘BORDERLANDS’ themed load outs. Maybe for this video series or for elsewhere . . It occurred to me because this loadout is almost what I would pick for a VLADAF themed loadout. I think the only thing I would change is swap out the Grenade pistol for the automatic pistol. For a TORGUE loadout, you’d have the grenade pistol, and the grenade launcher, and perhaps the bolt action as a primary since it’s explosive . . ? There are heaps of things that would fit this loadout. Autocannon, EAT, Commando launcher, rocket sentry . .
ATM I’m running supply pack + heavy machine gun against the bots and literally killing EVERYTHING. Berserkers are nothing, scout striders only take a few shots to the legs, devastates die almost *instantly*, hulks only take a couple well placed shots to the eye (pretty easy at mid-close range). Can shoot down gunships with a bit of fire at their engines. Even tanks, cannon turrets and freaking factory striders die in like 2 seconds of fire at their weak spots. New heavy mg is CRAZY
@@Mogz-hd oh no I didn't even realize it was the full teams re-supply. If you can manage to shoot or call an orbital down in the same spot, sometimes the explosion from the drop pod can fling the desired items down to you. And it can be a great way to get a turret, especially a mortar, in a safe position.
Damn it, I liked the idea. But I am not ready to completely abandon the anti-tank options and perhaps I will replace the backpack with a high-precision strike or 110 millimeter missile blocks. Well, as a personal weapon, I'll take something more specific, since I'll have a machine gun at the core anyway. Hmm... I think some kind of plasma weapon is good for this, especially with 110mm blocks. Oh my God, I'm really excited about this idea.
My own setup is very similar, but i replace the machinegun turret with a patriot exo and the rover with a supply pack, allows me to have tons of ammo, stims and nades. Plus patriot exo very cool
Honestly I would say either swap to the beam rover or swap to the supply backpack. One will be better for dps obviously but the other would give you more uses for your stun grenades and MG mags in case things get dicey and you suddenly realize you're on your last mag and have another few minutes for a supply drop, no ammo boxes on the ground, and about to be swarmed.
thanks :) CE-27 Ground Breaker (Engineering Kit, which gives 30% recoil reduction when crouching/prone, and +2 grenades). Its in the Democratic Detonation warbond definitely recommend a recoil reduction passive when running the machine gun
I know it doesn't fit in this build but the HMG emplacement is so strong against bugs and bots. Bring some AT weapons or stratagems and when there is a breach or bot drop throw it down and happy mowing.
How long ago did you try the Strafing run? Since they buffed it, it’s really strong, like it wrecks devastators and packs of troopers! Highly recommend giving it another try. I might end up switching out Gatling Barrage with it. Either that or I’ll use Strafing run for bots and barrage for bugs
tried it after the buff. preferred the gatling barrage. iv honestly never seen anyone use it ever so i didnt think that would be a controversial opinion haha.. getn lots of comments about that opinion tho! but yeh aight il give it another go i guess. Just found it kinda useless in most situations n would always prefer a diff air strike/orbital
uhhh its accuracy is incredible lol it constantly snipes units in the head for me and yeh almost never kills the user but yeh it should have infinite ammo (even if it has to constantly reload - to balance it with the laser drone).. or AT LEAST resupply its ammo using ammo crates. Currently can only resupply it with supplies, which is just ridiculous
Seems fun and wish to try it but sadly I'm forced to use more universal builds. I must admit teamwork is not doing the job for me way too often. In short if I'm not capable of doing 80% of things alone I'm not having fun. Also playing full squad on lower levels is often too boring when teamwork actually works and I prefer to play in two. My build is mostly Sickle, Grenade Pistol, Fire Grenades, Gas, 500kg bomb, Flamethrower and backpack shield. Sickle cuz besides being decent it's also 'ammo efficient'. (I also love Blitzer but it let me down too many times by hitting the air instead of enemies in front of me, dying cuz of that isn't fun) Grenade Pistol + Fire Grenades good for closing holes and for small trash control. Gas is perfect for Bug Breaches and crowd control, also quick cooldown. 500kg bomb is just too universal to not take, crowd control, bug holes, breaches, big enemies and buildings. Backpack Shield is just op, technically it gives me extra 'HP bar' and prevents slowdowns from some bugs. Flamethrower is simply cool af and great for crowd control, also can kill Chargers 'fast' enough on levels up to 5, maybe 6. From 5 and above difficulty I'd rather take Quasar Canon. Usually when I try something new/else I end up not having fun way to often. I mostly play against bugs cuz I love exterminating them. Okay so I finished my shit and also I'm done with writing this comment.
Why not wait for the charger to actually charge you? Then you can dive out of the way, , watch it collide with a rock or something, then stun it while its back is turned? Seems a lot more effective than wasting the stun time running behind it.
change backpack for supply pack and you could hold trigger for no reason (more bullets = more fun) and maybe use thermite nade or something and you have heavy killing . Side note have to use redeemer side arm and either knight or liberator carbine for same reason as before still pretty effective against bugs a least and very fun
yeh that was my original loadout supply backpack instead of the guard dog.. and then knight or liberator for primary.. but yeh switched them out. supply backpack is okayyyy but its a bit selfish cos i always end up taking my tm's supplies. so yeh i decided to go for the more 'team oriented' approach, which this build is anyway.. and go drone instead
Me when who have clutched multiple runs with the HVY MG emplacement after I saw it being removed: Blasphemy XD Lmao but your build is great, will like to try it with the Hvy MG to see how viable it is
Thanks for the build, looking forward to try it ingame. Is it possibile to swap the machine gun for stalwart? If im not mistaken i believe that the stalwart have higher RPM, but maybe its light armor pen.
yeh the only issue with stalwart is the low armor pen.. if u take that, then i think u'd need a medium armor pen primary.. so.. dominator i guess would be best. edit: or adjudicator cos faster fire rate.. fits better with the "Fast firing" theme of the build actually that was one of my early considerations for this build.. was gona do adjudicator + stalwart. then decided to make it more of a MG themed build n went MG + mg turret instead (n then sickle for primary)
@@Mogz-hd yeah that makes sense, i think the peak physique armor passive will fit very nice with this build. how about a fire build for next video? flamethrower feels OP, specially against chargers.
Waaaaaait a minute. I clicked a video and instantly thought "I know that voice but this isn't rocket league". So Mogz's spreading democracy too. That's cool 😄
mannnn I absolutely love trying out new builds and finding new fun ways of playing helldivers... really helps to keep things fresh in a game that can get a bit repetitive at times. Highly recommend u guys try out some new builds if you're the kinda player (like I used to be) who runs pretty much the same build every single mission.
If u wana check out some of my other fun themed builds, have a look at some of these vids:

Pls make pyro build
Because you’re using stun you should try shooting the inside of the back leg. It should pop him even faster. (charger)
@@Mogz-hd i love trying new builds. But playing on helldive with just me and buddy means we need every strategem to carry its weight.
Nice fun build, I'll probably swap the drone out for a supply pack tho
@@damienmcdonald7610 yeh that was my original build actually :)
They keep trying to buff the guard dog by increasing the damage and durable damage but what it really needs is a bigger magazine and double the reload speed
agree
One big issue is that the GD Rover, while having less damage, does everything the GD does but better. If they don't want to up the mag size, maybe give it the Liberator Penetrator statline. At least then it would be effective against tougher enemies
The guard dog runs out of ammo instantly and isn't restocked by ammo boxes only supplies. So it's effectively useless
I agree, the best guns in the games are those with sustained fire capability. They keep flopping with the new assault rifles because you spend more time reloading than shooting
Liberator penetrator needs a +20 damage buff. Oh and ALL ASSAULT RIFLES NEED A MAGAZINE BUFF OF 5 TO 10 EXTRA BULLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTSSSSSS😮
The first person to ever use a nonlaser guard dog.
i am a guard dog pioneer!
I saw it used a few times
Hate the Rover. Always gives me laser lobotomies
I'd happily use the regular one over the rover, if I could refill it with ammo boxes and not just supply packs
I primary use the liberator one too. The lazer one TKs too much. Plus the liberator one has a faster TTK and tends to go for head shots.
I’m ngl the mellow acoustic guitar music got a chuckle out of me cause it sounded like a Helldiver recalling the good times with his squad. 😂
I was thinking the same thing. "Malevelon Creek? Man, you wouldn't understand if you weren't there in the sh*t..."
My MG build is Supply Pack, Precision Strike, Airstrike, Stun Grenades and of course, MG-43. This gives me essentially unlimited ammo, and I can still take down the occasional heavy. For Primary I'll often take something like one of the shotguns which gives good close range support, or the Eruptor which is great for taking down nests, since the MG is good enough for swarms.
Same, this loadoutot is super fun but I only use it when I hop in random lobbies and everyone else has AT support weapons
Giv the explosive crossbow a try. Eruptor is fine but xbow is Silent meaning if you don't want to be noticed taking out the nests or fabs you can start the fight quiet before blowing the lid off with the big guns
I don't really run an mg build but I might try this sometime. I run an overwatch stealth type of build with an auto cannon to keep the gunships and devastators off of squad mates
If you run HMG instead of MG, with the Peak Physique armor, it's easy to take out the gunships.
@@cybbles Toe, but I find the low recoil to be better, you can get longer bursts on target easier. Aim speed is only really important are close ranges
Themed builds are so much fun. Sometimes it's ok to be non optimal - just go for a vibe and make it work.
I really want to try a fire build - flamethrower, inc breaker, inc grenades, inc mines, napalm strike. It won't be optimal but it will be funny.
yeh iv been thinkin of makin a vid about that kinda build.. the only problem is that mines are not really usable in groups, cos too many team kills.. and so u can only really use them in solo play... which aint my vibe at all
really hope they add a fire sentry or EXO soon so we can have a fully viable fire build
The latest warbond is all about the FIRE. New flamer primarys AND secondary AND Fire resistant armor.
Terrible now after fire nerf... I tried it.
Woah, I love the strafing run . It absolutely shreds, especially bugs. They take out shrieker nests in one hit, they damage heavy units and can take them out in a pinch.
The bugs tend to make long lines, especially if your team only mad dashes between objectives. I end up being the guy doing the cleanup at the rear. Fun times, though, and I am sure the Eagle-1 pilot enjoys racking up the big kills. 👍👍
This looks like so much fun.. gonna give it a try. Thanks Mogz!
Your method of explanation is very beautiful, and your style is wonderful, as if you are a teacher. You even put a written explanation in the video. You have all my respect. Your brother is an Arab who lives in Saudi Arabia. Thank you, sir. ❤
Window Vulnerability is my go-to for killing Chargers, without spending grenades.
While it's a bug, I'd really like for it to become a feature skillcheck, just making it more consistent.
You can do it practically with any weapon.
My initial go-to was Stalwart, until buffed other MG's with faster reload speeds and fixed Peak Physique.
It works something like this:
Let the charger slide past you and shoot it's hind leg.
If the leg is not taking dmg - shoot the sack and then try leg, damaging sack may expose the leg to damage.
Once you see that hind leg is taking damage, front legs may also start taking damage, making it easier if the bug turned around and is chasing you again.
As a result, in total you may spend much less time and bullets killing chargers, especially if there are a lot of them.
It is really easy to do on basic Chargers, and interestingly enough that it's quite a bit harder, but still possible, to do on Behemoths, just requires a bit better timing (so I guess it kinda is a skill-based feature now :D).
However, overall it requires good positioning to use successfully, otherwise you might end up slamming into walls hard, especially with Behemoth Chargers.
Stunning the bug may prevent vulnerability from coming up, as it ideally needs to be sliding.
Funnily enough, you can see Mogz damaging exposed legs by accident at around 9:23 as the bug slid a bit forward, showing that the window was there.
You can take Eruptor against Bile Spewers & Brood commanders & for bug hole closing, then a redeemer for smaller targets
Supply pack for just being unkillable (Peak physique armor ability for better comfort with a machine gun)
Plasma punisher & 110 MM rocket pods / Any other AT stratagem capable of destroying Bile titan's armor, then aim its meat to kill it
Change machine gun sentry to a rocket one to deal with the heavies
Take 500 kilo eagle instead of gatling barrage to deal with heavies
Or just go nuts and take Gatling & Machine gun sentries, resupply pack, machine gun, redeemer and Breaker Incendiary to be the true god of BULLET
Give the senator a go when you run a light pen shotgun. It cracks head and leg armor on elite units. If you miss too many out of 6 shots to pop the heads of everything in front of you, the armor being cracked lets your shotty do it.
You aren't doing stun grenade and grenade pistol though?
You can sacrifice the Machnine Gun Sentry for Precision Strike or Rocket Pods for the Bile Titans if you don't want relying on anyone from the squad.
Btw, all machine guns now shred, Stalwart, HMG.
Atm the loadout I use most is:
Suit with Peak Physique Perk (light for bugs, heavy for Automatons)
Dominator, P19 Redeemer, Stun Gren
Orbital Presicion, Napalm Airstike, Barrage and Autocannon.
You can use a auto cannon Sentry but in my case I really dislike to use them.
In this loadout you shred medium armor, you deal with Chargers with the AutoCannon, you can use Precision for Titans and as for the kill counter (if you really care for this) just throw a barrage or Napalm spot on a breach and enjoy.
😊
Damn it, I liked the idea. But I am not ready to completely abandon the anti-tank options and perhaps I will replace the backpack with a high-precision strike or 110 millimeter missile blocks. Well, as a personal weapon, I'll take something more specific, since I'll have a machine gun at the core anyway. Hmm... I think some kind of plasma weapon is good for this, especially with 110mm blocks. Oh my God, I'm really excited about this idea.
@@Starshina200 For bots, I've been trying this build lately, and IMO, if you are a machine gun player, this the combination to play. This combo shines on the bot units people hate the most: Medium Infrantry. You'll find it's really, really good at killing groups of medium infantry.
The strategy is this: use the Punisher to stagger/soften up medium-armored enemies (Strider Scouts, Devastators and the Chainsaw Berserkers). Then quick switch to the MG43 and lay waste to them while they're stunned and immobilized.
Primate: Punisher
Support: MG43
Stun Grenades
Armor w/Engineering Kit Perk (for MG recoil, and the six grenades).
Your stratagems should give you a way to kill Fabricators, as well as Hulks/Tanks/Factor Striders. Orbital Rail Cannon or Rocket Pods... paired with Precision Orbital Laser or Eagle Airstrike. I like to use Orbital Rail Cannon and Eagle Airstrike. It really depends on the mission and your team.
If you don't have the Punisher, a high stagger weapon like the JAR-5 Dominator, or the R-36 Eruptor can do as a replacement.
Save the stun grenades for Hulks, and occasions/emergencies when you need them for a big group of enemies.
Lone Gunships, you can shoot them down with some patience and cover, by hitting their little engines. Keep a close eye on your target reticule to make sure your shots are hitting the armored engines, and not deflecting off the body of the gunship. Groups of gunships are more difficult, and will surround you if you're not careful. Something to think about.
Tanks, you will have to put a full magazine of the MG43 into the heatsink to kill. This seems like a tall order, but might be surprised how often you can pull it off. You can switch to 900 RPM before you assault the tank. You can also take out one of the treads, and immobilize it... but this soaks up a lot of ammo too. So you'll want a stratagem (or a teammate) who can deal with Tanks. The primary/support weapons cannot deal with tanks from the front.
Factory Striders, I still don't really have a good strategy with this build. I know it's possible to kill them w/the MG43, via shooting their belly, but I've never gotten it to work. The MG43 really struggles to knock out the Factory Striders front turrets under its chin. So, again, select stratagems (or teammates) who can handle Factor Striders.
@@wolfumz
Since scatter is not active for bot missions, I would recommend swapping Railcannon for Precision Strike instead. Precision Strike is overall better against Factory Striders because 1) it has a much shorter cooldown, 2) call-in time makes Precision Strike relatively easy to use, 3) Precision Strike is manually aimed so it won't target the Strider's cannon turret unlike Railcannon and because of 3), 4) you can throw down both Precision Strike and Eagle Airstrike to nearly instantly kill a Factory Strider
@@wolfumz
Also personally, I like the default MG a lot, but against swarms of medium infantry or huge concentrations of fodder there is still no better option than the Grenade Launcher.
The HMG emplacement actually has pretty good utility for destroying buildings like shrieker nests from a safe distance in one call down. I don't use it for actual fights unless we are on an objective with a decent position for it. Also I recently killed a low hp bile titan with a laser canon by shooting the green underside of the big tail section, so anything with similar penetration should be able to kill a titan on it's own.
Love this! Been wanting to do a bullet raining build for a while now. For bugs I've been doing a blitzer/rover combo and I'm seeing pretty crazy results. It's tough to play the blitzer without the rover is my only complaint so far. Just not a lot of range and stopping power, but the stagger is great!
The contrast of the soft acoustic music against the mass killing of bugs is my favourite Monday morning content.
I'm glad you shouted out the bullet dog lol, its got great damage but its just in bursts, the ammo isn't too hard to manage but a bad reload can leave you high and dry lol
"The bullet dog" is an awesome name for it
I'm watching this, and I immediately thought of a way to not only improve the standard guard dog as well as the rover, but differentiate the two as well.
•To improve the Guard Dog: increase mag size OR decrease rate of fire while increasing stagger & damage so the dps stays roughly the same. Rather than decreasing reload time (and risk breaking anims, which is probably why they haven't done that); instead allow it to reload without docking, removing the time it takes to relaunch and open fire.
•To improve the Rover: Rework targeting so it prioritizes enemies closest to you, with a secondary priority of smallest. Additionally, give it the ability to ignite small swathes of the ground the laser sweeps over, akin to how the orbital laser does.
Lastly, as a way to give them additional utility and differentiation, I propose giving them pack use commands, like how the supply pack works:
•By pressing down on the D-pad (assuming you're on console) with the guard dog, it remains stationary. This increases individual target damage and armor penetration to medium, switches to a 3-shot burst, and prioritizes larger targets over fodder. Press again to recall, as it does also pull aggro similar to how a turret does.
•By pressing down on the D-pad with the rover, it flies to your last mark (pressing R1), and circles the area to patrol, but has some additional utilities; press again to recall at any time. If you mark an objective, it flies to it and performs recon, marking targets within a certain range. If you mark an enemy, it rapidly circles said enemy, pelting it with a constant laser and pulling aggro until it dies or is recalled. If you mark a sentry, it guards the sentry, attacking any enemy that is too close for the sentry to engage.
If anyone is in the official Discord, feel free to share this there, if they have a suggestion channel. Hopefully the devs will take it into consideration.
I love the calming music! The contrast is funny 😂
Great build info and i will be trying it out very soon. thanks
Funny timing, I've just been running a similar build!
You mentioned ammo concerns a few times and my logic was the same, so I went with the Supply Pack and the Stalwart, which means I can basically always reposition if needs be and always be shooting (since I can reload on the move).
Gatling Barrage and in my case Precision Strike means I can always respond with something, and makes chargers less of a concern for me as I don't bring stun grenades (I lack Democratic Detonation and don't want to be without bug hole killing capability) as well as giving me something to throw at Bile Titans.
The real spicy pick is I've actually gone with the Knight as my primary. Using the Stalwart with so much ammo means I basically have that as a primary, and the Knight can be my backup weapon for when I've not reloaded yet but Hunters are about to hit me, and in that situation specifically it has performed pretty well given its crazy DPS.
But yeah, the large amount of ammo means I'm not afraid to ramp the Stalwart up to full RoF at the slightest provocation, too, which helps mitigate the armour of some spitters and Brood Commanders somewhat. It's been a blast!
Statistically speaking, the normal guard dog has always been the better of the two, the only thing the Rover has over it is unlimited ammo. The normal guard dog has a better damage stat, better targeting(always aims for head-shots.), where as the Rover just aims at a threat not prioritizing any body parts. The normal guard dog almost almost never kills its user or the users teammates due how it fires. The only thing it needs is the ability to regain mags from the ammo boxes found on the ground in missions, even if it was just 1 or 2 mags it would be game changing. Ive been using the normal guard dog for ages, sadly it has a bug that causes it to miscount kills so that one kill counts as four.
Against the bots, the quick-cooldown EMS sentry will generally serve you better than carrying stun generates now that you can allegedly specify its target, so I'd do that with the orbital rail strike and normal grenades alongside your weapon choices... but that said, damn, I love your commitment to the bit by sticking with the theme. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
The only thing I will personally change for my own taste is the gatling eagle run to the cluster bomb. Not technically bullet swarm but it's a carpet, close enough, and you get 5 uses before the big cool down. Usually 5 is plenty enough to get through a tough battle up to a calmer section where you can manually reset the eagle.
A well trained german soldier would fire his MG-43 in bursts, usually about five rounds. Keeps you from chewing threw the belt and keeps your shots on target. Do not hold tha trigger unless you are so close you can't miss
my personal bullet hell loadout :MG-43 / supply backpack / both the minigun and the mg turret. Depending on my teammates i swap out one of the turrets for gas strike or napalm.
the 900 setting on the mg is one of the best tools for dealing with stalkers. i started running it for that, and then kinda just realized its a beast in most scenarios, and has longevity on the slowest fire rate. its almost so good i wouldnt be surprised if they nerf it, say by lowers the highest setting to 800.
you might be interested in a mortar loadout kinda like this one mg one. grenade launcher, plasma shotgun, mortar sentry, ammo pack, grenade pistol, maybe the ems mortar? the fun thing is being able to lob a ton of damage over walls or distances. more or less shooting straight up with the grenade launcher for example, you can actually get pretty good range. the hang time makes it hard to be accurate, so it is more about covering an area with splash. the grenade pistol and plasma shotgun also have high arcs. the only thing is for this to be standoff you need visibility over 100m, and the game constantly seems to be nerfing visibility to 10m, so it doesn't seem like the game wants you to be playing with a mortar loadout, but it is a fun different approach to the gameplay.
mortar loadout sounds really fun i will definitely give that one a go! thank u for the suggestion! :)
and good point re: high fire rate for stalkers!
Suggestion, the Infinite Stalwart build.
- Stalwart
- Supply backpack
- Expendable missile launchers
- Stratagem of choice
Maximize RPM and go nuts because you will NOT run out of ammo.
Strafing run is an amazing eagle call in and saying otherwise is super slander towards Eagle 1, our most prized gun in the sky, this is a warning, you only get one.
Even better with the commando armour "Peak physique" perk reducing weapon sway
Tip: you are not affected by stun grenades while diving, so you can just throw a stun grenade at a charger while running at and diving past it.
One huge advantage of the MG backpack over the laser is the greatly reduced number of friendly fire kills.
Fun build. I agree the MG43 is underrated. Against BOTs, one feels the lack of heavy armor pen unless someone else picks up the slack.
the devs know this when they added in maniacal laughter when you keep shooting.
Agreed that standard gaurd dog is underrated I use it all the time, the ammo is a problem but the damage and small enemy clearance is great
This inspired me to run a machine gunner build. Mg-43, hmg emplacement, gatling sentry, and orbital gatling barrage. Pair that with some heavy armor. Its a great support build and can handle armor if your positioned right. Plus the hmg emplacement is slept on. Place it properly and at SHREADS everything up to hulks. First build that got me away from my amr sniper build.
I've been running a variation of this for a while when I can get away with not taking the anti-tank role. I use the laser guard dog instead, for obvious reasons, and the Eagle Air Strike which is probably one of the best all around get-all-the-jobs-done stratagems there is. The only other build I've messed around with that consistently gets me in the neighborhood of the same kill count is a grenade launcher build I use. I prefer to use the grenade launcher build on heavy bile spewer planets and the machine gun otherwise but it's not a hard rule, they're both effective.
This sounds super fun and if you swap out the gatling barrage or guard dog you can get EAT for bile titans. Or use commandos
Don't forget, you can go full Predator "CONTAAACT" mode with this setup which increases your testosterone production to Arnold Schwarzenegger levels. 😂
this seems like a really fun build. How bad is the ammo economy with the mg? Have you experimented with bringing the supply pack instead of the guard dog?
yep that was my original build (supply backpack) but i found that i wasnt needing to use it cos i prioritise using MG only for medium armour, chargers and urgent swarm clear. Otherwise used sickle.
so i think ammo economy rly depends on how much u wana use the MG
My go-to is Supply Pack with Mg-43, plus Railcannon and 500KG to drop on anything my MG can’t deal with, heavy armor, HE grenades and grenade pistol for Fabs and Holes, and either the breaker incendiary for bugs, or either the Adjudicator or Eruptor for bots. Gotta have that extra little medium armor pen option for when my MG needs to be reloaded and I’ve got like, 5 devastators breathing on my face.
also the chargers butt has a 90% damage decrease to bullets from what ive heard so using the grenade pistol would work well too
This is actually surprisingly similar to a build I've recently made, tho mine is more an all-arounder build. Basically so I can be ready and prepared for any situation in some way or another. And, of course, the machine gun stratagem is my main weapon of choice lol
Ive been running machine guns since the game has come out. machine guns are underrated, and i still have so much fun using them to destroy hoards of bugs.
Against the bots , I would rather go with the HMG.
My personal build using machine guns is :
Bots - HMG , punisher plasma , stuns, ammo pack or shield , eagle strikes (I don't have the grenade pistol) , precision strikes.
That can cover everything all around , even taking care of Sauron eyes and jammer with the precision strike
For the bugs , I would take your build , just replacing the turrets for a 500 kg to make it viable against bile titans. The Gatling feel enough to deal with rest.
I've been always interested in WW2 small unit/infantry tactics and always loved the fire support role in a squad/platoon. In every military shooter game, I love playing as the guy with the machine gun, going prone and just laying down suppressive/covering fire
The Machinegun is so good. It is the first support weapon and despite that I use it all the time.
I use Mg-43, auto cannon sentry, eagle air strike and orbital precision strike. Its a good balance for me. Also i use the adjudicator, the grenade pistol and incendiary grenades. It helps with crowd control.
Nice video, I've been using a similar build recently because I love MGs and got tired of using the flamethrower all the time. Still working on getting the grenade pistol, and I usually bring the laser drone and either the 500KG or Railcannon instead of gatling. The MG is just way too fun.
1:17 the overkill is truly magnificent
amazing isnt it
I use the MG-43 and Supplypack combo regularly against bugs with good success. Let me say that if I could engrave anything onto my weapons in game I would put "Till it's empty" on my MG-43. I'll have to try the sentry with it.
I usually like being on crowd control when fighting bugs if the other players have Anti heavy strats. The little guys can pile up if not dealt with immediately.
I just realised something fun; could do ‘BORDERLANDS’ themed load outs. Maybe for this video series or for elsewhere . .
It occurred to me because this loadout is almost what I would pick for a VLADAF themed loadout. I think the only thing I would change is swap out the Grenade pistol for the automatic pistol.
For a TORGUE loadout, you’d have the grenade pistol, and the grenade launcher, and perhaps the bolt action as a primary since it’s explosive . . ? There are heaps of things that would fit this loadout. Autocannon, EAT, Commando launcher, rocket sentry . .
Don't have too much fun with this build or Arrowhead might Nerf this.
Was running this nearly the same way except with the Stalwart but with no medium pen I also switched to the OG machine gun. :)
Imagine a full squad of this loadout. Optimal? Nah. Hilarious? hooo boy yez
ATM I’m running supply pack + heavy machine gun against the bots and literally killing EVERYTHING.
Berserkers are nothing, scout striders only take a few shots to the legs, devastates die almost *instantly*, hulks only take a couple well placed shots to the eye (pretty easy at mid-close range). Can shoot down gunships with a bit of fire at their engines. Even tanks, cannon turrets and freaking factory striders die in like 2 seconds of fire at their weak spots.
New heavy mg is CRAZY
My favorite builds are when you use support weapons as your main source of damage and your primary is for specialty targets or spawners
I love themed builds, they are so much fun to use. I hope you'll find other fun builds like that !
The starting run isn’t terrible my guy. Used right, it’s awesome.
i no likey
That person's supplies getting caught on the cave roof in the last milisecond 😂😭
lolll yeh that was so annoying actually lol
@@Mogz-hd oh no I didn't even realize it was the full teams re-supply. If you can manage to shoot or call an orbital down in the same spot, sometimes the explosion from the drop pod can fling the desired items down to you. And it can be a great way to get a turret, especially a mortar, in a safe position.
I love the guard dog so fucking much, it would be so much more viable without that reloading thing or lower cooldowns for deployement
Only for the bugs, not the Soviet toasters
Damn it, I liked the idea. But I am not ready to completely abandon the anti-tank options and perhaps I will replace the backpack with a high-precision strike or 110 millimeter missile blocks. Well, as a personal weapon, I'll take something more specific, since I'll have a machine gun at the core anyway. Hmm... I think some kind of plasma weapon is good for this, especially with 110mm blocks. Oh my God, I'm really excited about this idea.
The suppression fire build.
This guys gets it. All machineguns, everywhere. Brrrrrrt
frfr
My own setup is very similar, but i replace the machinegun turret with a patriot exo and the rover with a supply pack, allows me to have tons of ammo, stims and nades.
Plus patriot exo very cool
I really like the stalwart i wish it had med armor pen the fast fire rate reminds me of the buzzsaw mg42 or any other bullet hose
The HMG emplacement is far more useful against bots than the orbital gatling barrage.
Honestly I would say either swap to the beam rover or swap to the supply backpack. One will be better for dps obviously but the other would give you more uses for your stun grenades and MG mags in case things get dicey and you suddenly realize you're on your last mag and have another few minutes for a supply drop, no ammo boxes on the ground, and about to be swarmed.
The liberator drone needs a comparable ammo amount to the Stalwart, especially when compared with the laser drone which never reloads.
agree def needs more ammo in mag
I've been basically running this loadout except not using stun nades and using crossbow and rocket pod instead of dog.
I love the RATATATATATATATATATATAT part
Начинал смотреть скептически, но очень даже!
inc breaker+ inc grenades napalm strike spear 380 mm and 500kg is my go to loadout against bugs
nice video! what armor set are you using?
thanks :)
CE-27 Ground Breaker (Engineering Kit, which gives 30% recoil reduction when crouching/prone, and +2 grenades). Its in the Democratic Detonation warbond
definitely recommend a recoil reduction passive when running the machine gun
I know it doesn't fit in this build but the HMG emplacement is so strong against bugs and bots. Bring some AT weapons or stratagems and when there is a breach or bot drop throw it down and happy mowing.
My only problem with the HMG turret is instant death when it is destroyed. And it breaks down in turn from one or two missiles.
5:50 running in front of a sentry is probably the worst thing you can do with them, unless you WANT to get a bunch of teamkills
yuh im not dumb tho so only in situations where front is clear
Finally, touhou in helldivers
I love the MG emplacement, but it is very exposed to heavies.
How long ago did you try the Strafing run? Since they buffed it, it’s really strong, like it wrecks devastators and packs of troopers! Highly recommend giving it another try. I might end up switching out Gatling Barrage with it. Either that or I’ll use Strafing run for bots and barrage for bugs
tried it after the buff. preferred the gatling barrage.
iv honestly never seen anyone use it ever so i didnt think that would be a controversial opinion haha.. getn lots of comments about that opinion tho!
but yeh aight il give it another go i guess. Just found it kinda useless in most situations n would always prefer a diff air strike/orbital
interesting .. i'm gonna try this
Guard dog is definitely slept on. I like it sometimes because it doesn't accidentally strafe you or your teammates nearly ever.
It has only 6 mags and "bad" accuracy. 😢
It needs 10 mags. 😊
uhhh its accuracy is incredible lol it constantly snipes units in the head for me
and yeh almost never kills the user
but yeh it should have infinite ammo (even if it has to constantly reload - to balance it with the laser drone).. or AT LEAST resupply its ammo using ammo crates. Currently can only resupply it with supplies, which is just ridiculous
the guard dog should replenish ammo from ammo boxes as well, idk why it does not, every back pack does
totally agree
Seems fun and wish to try it but sadly I'm forced to use more universal builds. I must admit teamwork is not doing the job for me way too often. In short if I'm not capable of doing 80% of things alone I'm not having fun. Also playing full squad on lower levels is often too boring when teamwork actually works and I prefer to play in two.
My build is mostly Sickle, Grenade Pistol, Fire Grenades, Gas, 500kg bomb, Flamethrower and backpack shield.
Sickle cuz besides being decent it's also 'ammo efficient'. (I also love Blitzer but it let me down too many times by hitting the air instead of enemies in front of me, dying cuz of that isn't fun)
Grenade Pistol + Fire Grenades good for closing holes and for small trash control.
Gas is perfect for Bug Breaches and crowd control, also quick cooldown.
500kg bomb is just too universal to not take, crowd control, bug holes, breaches, big enemies and buildings.
Backpack Shield is just op, technically it gives me extra 'HP bar' and prevents slowdowns from some bugs.
Flamethrower is simply cool af and great for crowd control, also can kill Chargers 'fast' enough on levels up to 5, maybe 6. From 5 and above difficulty I'd rather take Quasar Canon.
Usually when I try something new/else I end up not having fun way to often. I mostly play against bugs cuz I love exterminating them.
Okay so I finished my shit and also I'm done with writing this comment.
yeh i can definitely relate to that dude (the one-man-army requirement and also the shitting)
@@Mogz-hd nothing connects more than similar experience in game and shitting.
Why not wait for the charger to actually charge you? Then you can dive out of the way, , watch it collide with a rock or something, then stun it while its back is turned? Seems a lot more effective than wasting the stun time running behind it.
That backpack should really use the stalwart.
haha that would be so awesome
Change to thermine granade and using supply backpack that will fix the bio-titan and charger problem.( hope my avaide help ya)
Stalwart with supply pack means you can shoot basically forever
change backpack for supply pack and you could hold trigger for no reason (more bullets = more fun) and maybe use thermite nade or something and you have heavy killing . Side note have to use redeemer side arm and either knight or liberator carbine for same reason as before still pretty effective against bugs a least and very fun
yeh that was my original loadout
supply backpack instead of the guard dog.. and then knight or liberator for primary.. but yeh switched them out. supply backpack is okayyyy but its a bit selfish cos i always end up taking my tm's supplies. so yeh i decided to go for the more 'team oriented' approach, which this build is anyway.. and go drone instead
For me I'd change the rover for a supply pack for infinite ammo and stims and kg bomb for self defence if a bile titan rushes you.
Id probably switch the guard dog for minigun turret
nice build. will try! Could sub in the eagle strafing run for the orbital too. Or sub out the rover for the gatling sentry. OPTIONS!!!!
Me when who have clutched multiple runs with the HVY MG emplacement after I saw it being removed: Blasphemy XD Lmao but your build is great, will like to try it with the Hvy MG to see how viable it is
The MG 43 is wildly based
Try Stalwart (light), EAT (medium/heavy), 500 (heavy), Airburst
I think the dog needs more ammo.
rightttt, because it killed one beserker its slept on
ye
How about the Stalwart? You can load while running. Huge clip
yeh stalwart would be great too. i just went MG cos i wanted "machine guns" as much as possible
For a bullet build I would’ve thought of the redeemer as the secondary
yeh wasnt as useful tho so dropped it
Thanks for the build, looking forward to try it ingame.
Is it possibile to swap the machine gun for stalwart? If im not mistaken i believe that the stalwart have higher RPM, but maybe its light armor pen.
yeh the only issue with stalwart is the low armor pen.. if u take that, then i think u'd need a medium armor pen primary.. so.. dominator i guess would be best.
edit: or adjudicator cos faster fire rate.. fits better with the "Fast firing" theme of the build
actually that was one of my early considerations for this build.. was gona do adjudicator + stalwart.
then decided to make it more of a MG themed build n went MG + mg turret instead (n then sickle for primary)
@@Mogz-hd yeah that makes sense, i think the peak physique armor passive will fit very nice with this build.
