How to Master Your First Helldive in HELLDIVERS 2
When I first landed on that hostile planet, I was tempted to shoot at anything that moved. However, my friend told me to hold back and a*sess the situation first. Whipping out my machine gun right away could just waste ammo and draw unnecessary attention. I learned it’s better to be patient and strike at the right moment.
It was also hard to resist the urge to chase down every bug I saw. But wandering off alone can get you ambushed from behind. Now I know it’s smarter to stick with the team and keep an eye out for sneak attacks.
And friendly fire – ugh, what a nightmare. I still feel bad about that time I mowed down half my squad with a poorly aimed stratagem strike. They respawned OK but were pretty annoyed with me for a bit! Now I’m a lot more careful about watching my team’s position before calling in artillery.
Speaking of stratagems, it took me a while to get the hang of using them effectively. I used to panic and blow all my best gear taking out small fry. Then when the tanks rolled in, I’d have nothing left! Now I know to save the heavy stuff for the big threats so I don’t get overwhelmed.
But the most important lesson I learned was to work as a team. Trying to be a lone hero will just get you killed. The best helldivers watch each other’s backs, stick together, and coordinate every move. It can be the difference between glorious victory or humiliating defeat!
How I Made It Through My First Mission
It was tough at first, but these lessons helped me survive my first planetside operation. Now I know how vital patience, situational awareness, precision, strategy, and teamwork are. Apply them yourself, brave helldiver, and you just might make it back to Super Earth in one piece!
