- Coop Helldive, Max Difficulty Lvl 9, All Objectives Completed (Primary + Optional)
Modifiers: Extreme Cold
Planet: Lesath
Patch version: 1.000.304
Apologies for the delay on this one - things are officially getting a little busier since our little Super Citizen popped out on Saturday (:D), so there might be a bit of a break in uploads. Got a few more in the upload backlog in the meantime though!
For this one I was trying out the buffed Punisher Plasma after some of you recommended it in the comments, and boy does it deliver. With a generous AoE, good damage and most importantly enough stagger to lock down a group of Devastators, this weapon is now an exceptional Automaton killer, its only negative being the projectile arc which requires a little skill to master.
Props to my comrades-in-liberty @inexorablewarrior and @originalSPECTER for this game! If you're looking to join us for some coop games, or do runs with other like-minded players, check us out on Warrior's discord: / discord

Build:
This build was what I whipped up to try out the Plasma Punisher, but I'd probably tweak it somewhat having done the run. The PP handles pretty much every threat smaller than a Hulk - that I'm leaving to my Railgun. Didn't get the chance to try out the PP vs Gunships but the arc might make landing shots a little awkward - an AT support weapon like the Quasar or Spear would cover that and take out hard targets like Fabricators, Tanks and Hulks while letting the PP handle everything else. For this run, I'm relying on my 500kg, Railcannon Strike and Orbital Precision Strike to deal with the heavies.
For now, I've taken the grenade pistol for Fabs, and stun nades for emergency CC. If taking the AT route, you could take a non-AoE sidearm instead, which might have avoided the uh, unfortunate physics I ran into here.
Heavy armour with explosion resistance keeps me pretty tanky without resorting to any shield use.

Spiked, thank you for your continuous stream of content. Your calm nature, coop or solo is sth I truly appreciate with these videos and I can't ever get enough of you trying out new things and showing it to us.
I'm glad I come across calm, I have my grouchy moments too tbh. But I enjoy uploading these videos and replying to comments because y'all are so chill too.

Bruh spiked is goat
Congrats on the birth of your future Helldiver! I'm sure they'll grow up to be a fine dispenser of liberty and Moderated Democracy.
Those C-01 forms pay off!
Congrats on the new Super Citizen! The enemies of democracy can sleep even worse knowing that there’s a mini-Spiked waiting to get at them.
There's a mini-cape waiting for him at the end of basic :)
Congratulations on the little super citizen!🎉
Thanks :)
I've found that the way shots lob makes it really useful to fire at devastators from cover without having to peek out. The Plasma Punisher is definitely becoming one of my favorite weapons.
Congrats on the birth of the super citizen,he is destined for great things im sure of it
That's the first time I've watched one of your games where you guys didn't seem to have every single POI / secondary position memorized. While I do thoroughly enjoy you seeming to know every nook and cranny of whatever map you spawn into, it was refreshing to see you searching for that final SEAF SAM site to complete the full clear. Also, that physics death where you got thrown into a rock and one-shot seemed a bit over the top. Then when your turned towards that small gap (Warrior had tried unsuccessfully to get through) I was like "Sweet liberty, no!!! You're walking into a bot trap!!!"
Feels like the new map gen hides these SAM sites better. Also no more clickimg on the map to find stuff so it's a little more challenging.
Yeah that physics death was weird from full health, not sure if it was hitting a corpse that caused it or if hitting the ground would have killed me too. Was also dumb of me to try the hole, guess I thought I was skinnier than Warrior :P
Dang that snipe on the fabricator at about 1:50 was superb
Agreed, sick range with the grenade pistol. Playing bugs he’ll snipe 3 or 4 bug holes like that in a row.
At this point with everything maxed out in game (for now), your vids letting the game stay fresh.
Oh damn congratulations popps🎉
Congrats!!
Hey congrats on your new super citizen. 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks :D
Congratulations man! 🎉🎉
Literally always a pleasure to watch your gameplay.
Spiked sounds like Professor Snape and I mean that as a compliment ❤
Congrats for the new Super Citizen Spiked! 🎉
Also, thank you for your constant dedication to the channel even in this unique and special moment of your life. High quality content as always 🔥
Thanks! Can't put out as many videos as I'd want but will squeeze some runs in when I can :)
@@newspiked7385 don't worry, take your time and enjoy this moment. We'll wait patiently while fighting back those freedom-eater bugs and clackers 👍🏻
Glad you tried the plasma punished out spiked! Feels so good after they buffed it
New interesting build. That’s good to see.
Congratulations spiked. Love your guys team since aliens fireteam elite days when we were all trying to beat the pathogen and the challenge cards. Good times. Im glad you all found another game. There will be more im sure qnd hooefully an aliens fireteam elite 2 lol. Hopefully.
Still a great game! Just played it so much we can play it in our sleep at this point :P free challenge cards to mix things up now at least
Waow big step! Congratulations man
Congrats!
Loving the Punisher Plasma lately. It can do good work on both fronts if you balance your load out around it. Btw saw the news on Warriors discord! Congrats! Hope you're getting enough sleep! 😅 I've got two of my own so I know how big of an adjustment those first few weeks can be.
Sleep got patched out in the latest update, new poo thrower is pretty OP too, but a lotta fun :).
@@newspiked7385 Maybe the only time a nerf to a weapon would be gladly encouraged. Less poo sounds great.
Btw I've noticed you use heavy armor more often. Is this something you'd rec running solo as well? Or just better for group play due to increased enemy counts / less stealthy approach than solo?
@@thepromman I actually find it pretty good in general v bots whether solo or coop, if I'm taking a more aggressive approach anyway. I try to avoid taking shield backpacks unless essential, so heavy + explosive resistance keeps you out of one-shot territory for most things, with impact / physics damage being the only thing to stay scary. The reduced speed isn't such a big deal either since there's generally less kiting and more shooting from cover for bots.
If you're running the shield, or going stealth, or need more mobility e.g. running grenade launcher, which needs to get round to a Hulk's back to kill, then going lighter is worth it tho.
@@newspiked7385 Good to know, thanks for the info!
Thanks for putting this up I am a plasma punisher convert
congrats on the smol super citizen!
He is truly super smol :)
I like the Railgun and Plasma Punisher combo. It just makes sense.
Kind of makes me want to do a run where everyone runs plasma weapons though.
Super sample rock straight ahead at 35:26 ;)
And congrats!
Congrats! Welcome to the best club on earth, or even Super Earth. Hope you remembered to fill out your C-01 form!
Getting no sleep, but well worth it :)
Good team work
Staggering devastators into oblivion with the plasma punisher is one of my favorite things to do, especially when you hit multiple at a time or save a squad mate with it
Yeah. Not the fastest kills but excellent stagger!
Equip very good Nice working
Glad to see you put the Plasma Punisher to good use here. Does incredible work against Devastators and Berserkers as we can see. Reading your description, I never tried using it against the Gunships, but I honestly think they fly too high for it to reach, I couldn't land any GL shots on them either.
Also, congrats on the newborn baby! I hope you can take good care of him! ^^
yeah, when I get time I'd like to try it with an AT weapon, feel like they'll complement the PP better.
And thanks! The little poo spewer's a handful but he's the no.1 Priority Citizen atm :)
I find this weapon really underwhelming, needs more damage per shot imo considering the small mag size and the severe projectile arc (it should at least do as much damage as Jar 5?).
TESLA tower+arc blitzer+arc thrower build w/ the lightning armor when? :P
PS Congrats papa Spiked!
I love the plasma punisher, absolutely destroys bots
For sure you have signed the C-01 module before contemplating of having a baby.
You can use melee against the jumpers so they don't blow up.
Congrats on the new Super Citizen but that’s no excuse for running passed super samples!! Lol
My bad my bad XD
pp prevents devastators and spewers from playing the game. automatically A tier
3:40 waitwaitwait does shooting or throwing a grenade in an open fabricator destroy it?? If it does then I feel like the biggest idiot right now. that makes perfect sense lol
Yup! It's still a little confusing when it's actually open, it's only really obvious when you see the door animation play, so I still go for vent shots when I can.
Have you ever done a lvl 9 automaton eradicate mission solo?
Ah nah - think it's quite doable tho, will have to whack out a run sometime!
I find it weird y'all don't finish artillery first, to secure more firepower
We didn't have SEAF arti on this one. Early SAM site would have been useful, but just didn't see it!
New Spiked, 2 views 1 minute ago? Guess I opened YT at the right time!
Pretty pathetic tho they think it's ok to just leave the game broken without even a quick fix patch to revert the patrols and spawns. Haven't played since that patch and won play till the game makes a drastic change to QoL
