I suspect that originally it was literally an ABRL warhead but in hand grenade form. It was given 3 nades to keep this balanced. Then Alexus saw one kill a fleshmob and reduced the number of bomblets by 98%

So what weapon does the highest DPS to a hive lord's exposed inner flesh (Armor level 2, 100% explosive immune, 0% durable)? Is that the HMG, or is it something like shrapnel spam from an AC/eruptor?

I don't know. I will however share that I keep a bag of pepperoni in the freezer that I use to overload my frozen pizzas with extra pepperoni.

Also, if you have the kitchen space and budget for kitchen gadgets, I recommend getting your hands on a sous vide cooker and a vacuum sealer. Specifically the more expensive "chamber" style vacuum sealers. The chamber ones can seal using cheaper bags since they don't need the special air channels, and are capable of vacuum sealing liquids. On the weekend when I feel like cooking, I'll make a big pot of soup or chili. Then I'll portion out individual servings into the bags and vacuum seal them. Then I chill the bags in an ice water bath before drying them off and transferring them into my freezer. Then I'll have a bunch of servings of frozen soup/chili for days that I'm feeling lazy.

When it comes time to re-heat the chili, I just use the sous vide cooker to fire up the hot water bath and toss the bag of frozen chili into the water. Come back ~30 minutes later or so and you'll have a hot bowl of chili/soup ready to eat. It's a bit on the slow side, but it's zero fucking effort come meal day and there's no rush. Just spend the time shitposting and playing vidya. Or exercising/doing errands if you feel like being productive. If you get caught up in a mission, the soup stays fine even if you're an hour "late" or more. It's not going to boil over. It's not going to burn.

I also vacuum seal and freeze diced up steak, chicken, and peppers/onions. Make a batch of pico-de-galo and freeze servings of that too. Some nights I'll cook up a bowl of rice and then dump the reheated steak and veggies in too.

In case it wasn't fucking obvious, they're setting the stage for a major disaster so that they can suckoff the xbots and make them feel like they're our saviors.

The flag provides moral support. This is represented by 50% shorter stratagem cooldowns for all helldivers within 50m of it.

Be sure to fill up their inboxes with reports that the Epoch is immersion breaking in how it can kill heavily armored tanks but gets stopped cold by chain link fences and sheet metal shipping containers.

If my swede math is correct, doubling up with both firebomb and stunpods will let the pods destroy detector towers/gunship fabs/orbital cannons. We wouldn't even need to carefully aim EAT pods. Just shotgun a teammate in the face and toss them at the objective. Which makes me wonder if a helldiver respawning at the very edge of a stratagem jammer has enough time to guide the respawn pod into the jammer?

If you're comfy running WASP, I have the following things to suggest.
>make sure that your primary weapon and/or secondary lets you comfortably defeat devastators/rocket striders without the help of support weapons or stratagems
>the wasp is not good at killing factory striders. Consider temporarily calling down and using COMMANDO and concentrating all 4 shots either into one foot or into the "eye". This will kill the factory if you don't miss. The cuck chair can work too.
>eagle strafing run is AMAZING on bots. It can kill tanks/towers, destroy fabricators, and wreck patrols and freshly dropped groups of enemies
>500kg/OPS/120MM barrage/walking barrage can be useful options for destroying detector towers
>rocket sentry is convienent for helping mop up large numbers of devastators. When pubbies shit the bed, they often fail to clean up multiple reinforcement waves, and this produces a situation where there are many devastators/striders roughly scattered across a large area.

Another thing that I want to mention is that pyrotech "sparkler" grenades are GODLIKE vs bots. Toss a few at a tank and it will kill them. One of them will wreck a blob of devastators that drops onto your head. A handful tossed around a factory strider's feet will kill it. For me I kill factories with 1 quasar shot to the foot and then one or two sparklers to finish the foot off. They're a generalist answer to most anything that the bots can throw at you if you find yourself caught with your pants down with other options on cooldown.

My usual build is
>Medium unflinching armor
>Eruptor
>talon
>Sparkler grenades
>Quasar
>jump pack
>Eagle Strafe
>Rocket sentry

It should be noted that in order to "praise" players for choosing heroism the company decided to virtue signal. It wasn't enough that Helldivers actively subverted Arrowhead's expectations, they had to throw some paltry sum at a charity and act like THEY'RE the good guys.
