Never thought I’d see the libpen used for stealth. It’s always felt like more of a brute force weapon to me. Awesome run, Sarge, it’s always a pleasure to watch you style on the bots.
if I wanted a weapon that can brute force and remain silent dcs is still better too...abjudicator for bugs, dcs for bots it needs a buff, that 4x crit is not going to cover for its horrible damage
That SAM site was super helpful for the gunship patrols. That makes me think they should add secondary objectives tied to the mission modifiers. Like always have a SAM site for gunship patrols or something like a "GPS coordinator" for the orbital scatter modifer
if you didn't move, that maton wouldn't have detected you, and gotten shot by arriving pelican. what an impressive run. this inspires me, rather than just "obviously i can't play like these guys", it makes me go "it can be done!!!"
Oh something I’ve noticed in your previous videos and in this one too is that whenever you kill a fab with a hellpod, you always throw it right next to the fabricator. Why don’t you just toss it in the vent? I find that it’s a lot more consistent that way.
Wait wait wait, are you telling me they stick in the vents? I swear i tried that a long time ago and it didn't work. Seems like i need to revisit this technique!
@@Sarge94 yeah, both blue and red stratagems stick in the vents. I use it to guarantee a smoke strike kill or to drop an SSSD into the fabricator next to the air control tower. It’s also pretty nice for taking out fabricators next to detector towers with the hellbomb drop, or for just getting a little bit more out of a resupply or support weapon drop.
Seems like they might've patched it or it requires a really good angle. It worked once with the jetpack using the slam dunk technique, but failed 2 times in a row from the ground (tested today, the calling ball just disappears)
@@Sarge94 since they haven’t mentioned fixing this in any of the patch notes and the fact that it still can be pulled off inconsistently, I’d be willing to bet that it not working is unintended. Hopefully the functionality returns soon. In the meantime, we can continue wondering just how AH keeps breaking things that seem completely unrelated to the stuff they were fixing.
Hey @Sarge 24:52 whats with that placing many markers in.a circle around the extraction site? And moments later 25:28 the patrols walk away - can they sense the marker or something? Is that a legit strategy to keep them off the extraction site?
Thats nearly my bot loadout. Also, did you know you can throw the artillery shells? Juggle them by dropping and picking up, then just after you press "pick up" press your change weapon key. If done correctly, the artillery shell gets thrown quite far.
Always inspirational to see your work @Sarge Gotta love how a few toopers seem to always lock on to a helldiver no matter how well hidden they are, even if they're nowhere near extraction (like during emergency). I had one where I stayed more than 100m away, and 3 troopers just broke off from the blob getting agitated at extract and came straight for me, started shooting and brought the apocalypse. Still extracted thought, running, like a coward, but an alive coward :D
really cool to see the sam site sneak and the hellbomb locations again on the command bunkers. I still rely way too heavily on the autocannon/airstrikes to take out heavy bases though. always more to learn! Thanks for another great video.
What are the human bodies lying around?? I don’t play helldivers and am just curious as to what they are And you need to head to the med bay and take a good long shower of democracy
@@victorcaldera249 me too. I could get into it as I just got basically all the time in the world after I finished my college class. But I also don’t have very much money because of gas prices and snacks. Good luck when you do decide to.
Long story short, the bots kill and harvest humans for their organs and biofuel (and experimentations) with which they can use to build more bots, yes the bots in fact have human brains and some other squishy parts, think of the Strogg from the Quake series, essentially doing the same, but the most horrid thing about those brains? That they are still alive and sometimes use the bots voice module to beg to the Helldivers to put them out of their misery and to tell them that they cannot control themselves, pretty much spectators in a body they can't control. As for the remaining human body parts that they don't need? They use them for psychological warfare, see Berserkers and Hulks who have human skulls on their spikes.
Shame that the Liberator Penetrator's damage is so whack its simply does not worth using on a long term, too bad because its one of the best looking ARs in the game EDIT: Same thing with the AR-23E Concussive, i want to like it so much but that damage is so underwhelming, it should have like 80 damage, 550 RpM and full auto function, it would be like the Adjudicator but instead of having medium armor pen, it would have stagger and explosive damage bonus
@@Sarge94 i was thinkin more along the lines of a challenge build, like being limited to 2 stratagems or something like that. Like self imposed rules to make it more difficult
24:12 you can see the SEAF-SAM doing work off in the distance shooting down some gunships extremely satisfying

Riight? It looks like it almost does a better job in a stealth build😂
As an Australian I can confirm that our inhospitable wasteland infested with bots is in dire of need of a cleanup
So clean. Thanks for the tip about the secret Hellbomb spot by the command bunkers!
It looked like you were going to get away with a clean extraction, but that lone Bot had to tattle on you. Great run!
That SAM site was super helpful for the gunship patrols. That makes me think they should add secondary objectives tied to the mission modifiers. Like always have a SAM site for gunship patrols or something like a "GPS coordinator" for the orbital scatter modifer
it makes sense in gameplay, but the SAM site one seems like it wouldn't make sense tactically, idk, I might just be dumb

So far we have only seen light fabricators so it’s a possibility that they would be upgraded soon 😮
Laser cannon is underrated. People always go for spear or autocannon. But laser cannon is my go to for bots

9:15 "HEHE Yeahh! Show them who's in Charge!!"
fun fact the Spear can 2 shot command bunkers!
2:57 never thought id see batman join the helldivers

The scout armor's passive allows you to see enemies around pings, i used it to scout for incoming patrols.
Thats nearly my bot loadout. Also, did you know you can throw the artillery shells? Juggle them by dropping and picking up, then just after you press "pick up" press your change weapon key. If done correctly, the artillery shell gets thrown quite far.
15:20 bro i was thinking that too!... But it could be more accurate if you trhown the stratagem *inside* the vent ya know?
Damn, you make John Helldiver look like baby Helldiver!
LETS GO
YOOOOOOOOO, no way you just did that! Laser Cannon OP
easily my most watched channel
Thank you!
HOLY SHIT the laser Cannon HANDLES them gunships! I gotta try that out!
every time i watch your videos i learn something new, i didn’t know the laser cannon could open up crates!
I didn't know it could take out a gun ship so damn fast! This man inspires me😂
@@atypikul1426 I mean, this guy is practically one of, if not THE BEST at Automaton missions.
Which planet was this? Looks beautiful and you can clearly see! Great gameplay!
Edit: spoke too soon with the fire tornadoes 😂

I check the map for red spots I need to go to, but it almost seems if you also look at the terrain structure for routes, rocks to hide behind, etc.
Mostly for side objectives, which have pretty characteristic shapes. But sometimes for terrain structure too
Smooth AF.
I didn’t know they would leave the extraction site
They do that, but it's pretty rare as patrols have increased awareness when you complete the main objective.
I see I'm not the only one switching my builds up😂
You should do one using the tenderizer for stealth. I've been trying to make it work recently. I'd love to see how you would use it
Hands down my favorite Helldivers content creator. See you on the battlefield soldier; and may liberty guide you! o7
I read that spear can 2 shot the bunkers now. I bet that might trivialize this entire mission.
Depends on the angle. Sometimes it takes a much as 4 to blow up a command bunker.
Always inspirational to see your work @Sarge

Indeed. Once you complete the main objective, their perception suddenly reaches level 100 🤣
27:03 that "FOR DEMOCRACY!" Got me rolling on the street😂😂😂, You almost killed your Pilot

I'm convinced that Sarge can take (almost) any weapon and use in in stealth missions against the bots
I’ve never seen two SEAF-SAM sites on one map before.
Another good day for Helldivers when sarge is playing
O7

This was the best gameplay I’ve ever seen on HD2
Laser bro! Smooth af.
Bravo sir! 👏🏿
What are the human bodies lying around?? I don’t play helldivers and am just curious as to what they are
And you need to head to the med bay and take a good long shower of democracy
civilians that got brutally massacred by the bots that we are here to avenge
@@victorcaldera249 always a noble cause. Can you drop an extra hellbomb for me? I don’t have the money to join your ranks.
oh i don’t play i just like watching other people but i am considering it
@@victorcaldera249 me too. I could get into it as I just got basically all the time in the world after I finished my college class. But I also don’t have very much money because of gas prices and snacks. Good luck when you do decide to.
