- IN HELLDIVERS 2, the shriekers, or the flying bug-bats, could be such a nuissance when spreading democracy. In this video, I will show you how I've tested over 15 ways to destroy the shrieker's nest using most of the available stratagems in Helldivers 2.
The shriekers are relatively new to Helldivers 2 but already it has terrorized the helldivers from the skies above, not only do the helldivers need to look down to get rid of the pesky bugs, now they need to look up as well.
Shoutout to @chloekaftan for giving me the idea.

Took me 9 shots from autocannon to destroy one tree and that was over 300m. You get lots of spare ammo and can easily find a safe spot to shoot.
What is this autocannon propaganda
@@salvofiasco2498the only kind: good propaganda.
A group of 3 mushrooms is roughly 30 shots from any distance, which can be done in a fairly short amount of time. Considering that you won't have to deal with them at all you end up having lots of time.
So it (allegedly) takes half an entire autocannon to take down the shrieker towers, and you need to do this WHILE SURROUNDED BY 25 CHARGERS AND A DOZEN BILE TITANS not to mention the swarms of everything else that come directly to your location instantly upon drop... Ya ok I had such high hopes for this game but this is just asinine. All my other friends both irl and many of the online friends I met have uninstalled this game already. This game is so out of balance it's silly and the proof is in the pudding. People are dropping this game like a bad habit because it's just not fun anymore. Enjoy the sweaty SOLO helldive missions BC this game has clearly lost the lightning they managed to bottle apparently on accident. I'll look into it again if and when it re-learns that games are meant to be enjoyed, not suffered through, which spoiler alert was the whole reason this game got popular to begin with.
^clearly not getting laid and woefully unpatriotic take
@@Romuluz369 I have a feeling that no matter what I say, I will not be able to convince you otherwise, and I'm not here to do so either. I'll say my 5 cent regardless about your comments about balance, autocannon and friends. I would be surprised if you, or anyone else for that matter would actually read everything bellow, it's a wall of text.
First of all they've nerfed the amount of chargers and bile titans. Since they did I've seen at most 4 chargers at the same time on helldiver difficulty with maybe 1 or 2 biles. While that might seem like a lot, if you have a team comp that can deal with heavily armored targets, a well placed 500kg, orbital railcanon, some anti-tank missle shots... it shouldn't be any issues. Obviously, there's a lot of smaller enemies now too, so bring tools to deal with those too!
No one decides the difficulty besides you. If you're having issues dealing with everything thrown at you, there's no shame in lowering the difficulty to get a enjoyable experience. Some days I play on helldive, some days I play on hard. Completely depends on how drained I am.
I think the game is heading in a very interesting and fun direction. Most weapons have drawbacks that need to be compensated in one way or another for your loadout to be balanced.
Introduction to new enemy types are absolutely a fun concept in my opinion.
If you're playing solo the higher difficulties are actually super hard. At least since they nerfed the railgun...
Obviously, with the autocannon tactic you should get well out of range of the shrieker nest, so they won't bother you. clear up the area of said chargers and bile titans accordingly then get rid of the nest in peace at a good distance away from it. Don't know if it's any good solo, since I don't play solo.
An autocannon have space for 10 shots, and the backpack have 100 shots, so when you call it in you have 110 shots. 30 shots is 1/3 of your ammo. The alternative is to run up to the nest, deal with the shriekers and call in a hellbomb while most likely juggling bug breaches etc which easily can be above 30 autocannon shots... This is the tactic that I've found is the most effective for me when I play at least.
The game is for the most part balanced for 4 people co-op and not solo. A lot of my friends are starting to drop off slowly as well, but there's still plenty of randoms to play with and 99.5% have been neutral/quite to nice people.
Again, if you wanna quit, it's just a game, so quit. video games doesn't have to be end all be all or whatever. I loved league of legends for many years, then I vowed to never play it because I started to dislike it. I still look back fondly on those memories, but it wouldn't even cross my mind to play it again.
Laser cannon is by far the most economical way to dispose of these
Laser gang ✊️
It's good against the flyers themselves, too
Flying bugs just came out and man's already devoted to destroying their homes 🏚🦇🙅♂️
A true patriot
The reason your Orbital Precision Strike was missing is because you had the modifier that makes orbitals less accurate. Normally it's pinpoint. Always a sad day for Precision Strike enjoyers when that modifier is in play. I wonder if it affected your orbital barrage tests as well, I admit I haven't used them enough.
Just magdumping them with the AMR might be a decent option actually, if your team lets you eat a whole resupply yourself that is, or if you happen to have a replacement AMR ready to drop. But the laser seems the best option by far, while the Eagle Airstrike/Rockets is probably the best offensive stratagem for the job.
Tbh I've never really used Precision Strike so it kinda caught me off guard when that happened lol
Quasar Canon has now entered the chat 🤣
9:46 pro tip you reload auto cannon faster when it's half empty, dont wait to do a full reload
Tactical reload? W tip right here
Also crouch so recoil isn't as bad
As long as there is 1 round left, its a quick reload (1 mag top up, instead of a full 2 mag reload)
Also you made me notice that the shrieker nest as a structure is in between the hardness of a regular nest and the softness of a spore spewer, becausw support weapons work on it but primary weapons don't, and other damages that aren't necessarily explosives work well on it too.
It appears to have the third tier of armor. Not many things have this armor value; really only the Front shield on the Strider, and the head/eye of the Hulk. Weapons with the 2nd level of AP are capable of damaging it; this includes the autocannon, safe mode railgun, AMR, HMG Emplacement, and Las cannon.
HMG emplacement is missing from your list. Takes around 8 seconds or 30% of the magazine to down a spire from the other side of the map so you can destroy all three in around 24 seconds with 10% ammunition to spare. 3 min CD so you can easily destroy a couple nests with it if needed even during a Blitz mission.
It's not the most amazing stratagem overall due to the abysmal turn rate but man it eats shrieker nests for breakfast and can be made to work with careful placements for general bug control as well. Highly recommended to run EATs on the side so you can take out that charger before it takes your HMG down.
kind of loving your voice for these videos lol. very chill
I loved listening to the word spire being broken down into two syllables with a hard pronunciation on the second, “SPY-YUR”.
I run EAT’s and autocannon, 1 EAT + 5 auto shots works pretty well per hive.
I take down a shrieker nests using anti tank for 1 shot each. Aim for the center point and aim a bit lower.
We're going to have to test this one boys
@@darko9035 please do, cause I only done this just recently for 1 mission run. I need to do more mission runs just to be sure.
(I played this on lvl 9 difficulty)
The stalk?
My favorite is a SEAF mini nuke in the middle of all three spires.
A clip for the autocannon is 5 rounds. That's pretty quick work.
10:30 the tesla tower, even though not hitting the shrieker, looks like it's getting ready to strike, so maybe if they make the strike animation faster it can hit?
i love to combine the laser cannon with the laser rover and the sickle laser main weapon. that way i can always switch between the laser cannon and the sickle and let the other cool off. as a bonus the rover kills the small stuff around me.
Ah yes, the Lazerman build.
amazing video
Thanks glad you enjoyed it ✊️
Had my first run in with them last night, and it freaked me out that I couldn't take them out with a single AT rocket
Orbital railgun and rocket pods are super reliable for killing them, also good against bot fabricators.
The HMG can do it from a good range as well :D
Thx
Np
Thx
Airburst destroys all 3 most times if you throw it in the middle. Easily the best if you're close. Auto cannon can snipe from the entire map away. Lay down and have someone team load it, done in seconds.
I skipped airburst because I thought structures need boom boom to destroy. Now i think of it, that's probably the fastest way to clear it lmao
@salvofiasco2498 huge bloom that goes boom on these trees of doom. Go try it and message back please. That's what I use on them.
Forgot to mention, if you're on an egg mission and the eggs have line of sight with the sky, airburst will destroy them all as well.
Airburst go boom on the trees of doom bringing the bugs their doom
Airburst is my new to-go in every mission against bugs ^^
either auto-cannon or recoilless for me. just drop the backpack and ask a buddy to help reload and voila, best of both worlds
Watched two of these videos now, no mention of the walking barrage, placed correctly, can take out all three
You should experiment with the Redeemer and the Peacemaker. I wanna know if it has some secret bullshit stat or summin.
Recoiless rifle with a buddy reload is the best method. 100s of meters away and takes no time at all.
Would you... would you be my recoilless buddy..?
😳
👉👈
@@salvofiasco2498 Affirmative!
Grenade launcher apparently
8:40 from my experience the Railgun takes 13 shots for each nest
Props dude you actually broke it with a railgun, I gave up lmao
The stationary turret can also destroy them
Genuine question, are you sure the precision strike wasn't with orbital scatter in effect?
Genuine answer, I think that's the case. I never use precision strike and when i did, it felt wonky, then someone pointed out orbital scatter to me so that's probably it.
@@salvofiasco2498 Awesome. Great video btw. Informative and entertaining.
Tbh I won't even fault you, I use the precision strike as a default and it's deviation here basically just its blast radius away from the beacon which isn't that much different from the airbursts default deviation (something that has killed me as often as it has killed dozens of enemies in one burst)
Laser cannon users unite!
Greetings fellow laser cannon enthusiast 🤝
Impact grenade two can destroy the spire. I forgot how many. So I combo eat and 1 grenade
I tried lobbing 4 impact grenades on a spire and it didn't break so it'll take more than 4 if only using nades. True though, you can weaken it with other support weapons and throw a nade to finish it off.
@@salvofiasco2498 5 by itself will
What about rocket turret?
5 to 6 impact grenades
Laughs in autocannon
You test HMG?
Nice, have you tried melee it?
Tried bodying it with the exosuit and it works. Didn't try shoving it to destruction though.
@@salvofiasco2498 yeah I saw the exosuit part, I was just joking. 😅 my personal favourit is the Expandable Anti Tank.
how do you spawn hellbomb on it?
How you spawn a hellbomb for anything: use the strategem when in the area of the mission objective.
Get close enough to it and the hellbomb option will appear in the stratagem menu.
2:38 slick cut
Also what about spear?
Thanks, you're the first one to notice.
As for the spear, since I always have trouble locking on to anything i didn't even bother testing it lol
Spear can't lock onto the spire but it does lock on to shriekers...
@@Pygex I've locked onto the Spires with Spear once. Never was able to replicate it though. The missile hits the base of the spire, so I imagine you need line of sight to the base. 1 shot one kill.
Did anyone try the orbital gas strike? 😂😅
You missed impact granade in this video.
Took me like 6 impacts to take down one spire, i got the footage, but i forgor 💀
I love the idea but i feel like they shoulda waited a bit. They have too many problems. Corpses one shotting you is bad design, the bug breaches being called in without the pee animation is bad design, and they have a bit too much health. Really needed more time in the oven
I agree, but gotta give props to the devs because even though they sometimes pump new content out too quick, they respond to the community's outcry and iron out the problems soon enough. (Some of the problems, anyway)
@salvofiasco2498 yeah true. I love what the devs are going with overall, you mentioning they create an interesting dynamic of focusing on the sky making it more difficult to focus on the ground really made me appreciate them way more
wow time tags
Hell ye
They fly now??
Yessir 🦇
can flamethrower destroy shieker nest? :DDDDDDDDD
I belive 2 granades from GL also destroy it, however i didnt try
How are u not dying taking all of the damage on
Wym i die all the time
Quaser rules all
Got nerfed but it still rules.
If you use a Hellbomb right underneath a spire, it will destroy it just like using a resupply.
Why this guy talk like Zapp Brannigan 5:24
Things youtube say i sound like:
- chris griffin
- duffman
- zapp brannigan
- ???
@@salvofiasco2498 Lionel Hutz?
to be fair the main thing that i learned here was that shriekers cant really attaack you if you lei down
I'm curious how well napalm or gas does.
I appreciate the intel gathering for the advancement of democracy spreading. Ministry of truth would be proud. 🫡
Anything for managed democracy.
