@@EravinVT another good alternative when you are too close to enemies that detection is guaranteed during the drop is instantly using Stun grenades. Throw them everywhere around. They will hit you too but you can still shoot through them and hopefully dispatch all the small enemies before they can start a bot drop
It's also the SOP of the SAS (and I would assume all special forces) after helo infil behind enemy lines. I read the book about the Bravo Two Zero mission where the author and team leader described how they all hit the desert floor, covering all directions, and just scouted, not moving a muscle, for something like 20 minutes. 😊 (That said, I guess there will be exceptions.)

I've been running stealth on Helldive thanks to your videos. It really makes you feel like a true professional when your quick play team is on the other side of the map struggling with a couple of outposts while you clear the majority of the map quietly and alone.
Just did a ghost diver style mission tonight with my friends and I figured out the tip about pushing objectives during bot drops on my own from your 10 tips video about the cool down timer! Using the smaller bases to achieve this is gonna enhance the strategy though for sure! Ghost diving really is the way to play on Helldive difficulty!
you should do a video that does a more in depth look at volume detection because youre the only person thats brought it up lol sometimes i notice that my firing might be influenced whether im standing or crouching/prone, but theres no info out there to help determine that
A full video on sound profiles in Helldivers 2 is planned but i'm waiting for suppressed weapons to be introduced so I have the full story to work with!
Huh. I'm surprised to find this comment, because I was going to comment this exact same comment. I've been noticing this for my Jar-5 & Spear. It does seem like it reduces the sound profile, but I'm not sure. I was thinking it's possible I shoot enemies that are further away when I Crouch/Prone, and I'm just tricking myself. What weapons have you been using to find this?
@@carlweiscorcher, energy weapons are "quieter" but it feels kind of random when i get detected, theres so many variables to take into account distance, sight lines, weather/time of day, weapon volume, stance, etc so sometimes when im prone, at a distance, landing a one shot kill, no one notices even with other bots in the immediate vicinity. other times, they immediately detect me and fire at my exact location. sometimes they just run towards me. the biggst factor in these scenarios i think are if other bots see the target die or take damage, but again, it feels kind of random
Pro tip: Always check which grenades you have equipped. Nothing better than holding a HE nade next to your face while sneaking. Double pro tip because I'm nice today: have
Something i like to do is to choose any of the direct fire sentries (like gatling or normal) to distract enemies from my escape. A big chunk of enemies are pursuing you? Throw down a sentry and run away while all enemies focus on the now deployed sentry that serves its purpose of cannonfodder well, allowing you to escape unscathed most of the time.
I have been running smoke grenades for a long time now because they're just so versatile against the bots. Need to cover an escape? Need to expand the cover of the tiny rock you're hiding behind while being blasted by 10 Heavy Devastators? Need to hide the Hellbomb, or control terminal while you operate it? Want to provide some cover to your teammates when the Pelican lands and bullets are flying from every direction to keep you from escaping? It does it all!
I disagree lol. Feels like you have to use your entire stock to get a proper screen. It's more like a radar jammer irl. It doesn't make you invisible it just tells the enemy to mag dump that tiny cloud. Imo orbital smoke is kinda mid compared to the wider eagle smoke. Both the orbital and grenade should get a stupid buff even if it logically can't fit that much smoke irl
I think you might've placebo'd yourself into thinking they are useful. Most of these problems can be solved with an impact or a stun grenade at what's threatening you. I'd agree that maybe smoke has a place, but then you have to consider that if you're not solo, someone's going to fucking shoot through it and ruin your stealth
@@ExValeFor Considering they basically count as a brick wall (strictly in terms of blocking line of sight), I find them to be incredibly effective and faster to use than the bubble shield. I don't usually take the personal shield either so having it as a defensive tool helps me to stay alive and create cover on the fly.
Really glad you put this one out. It’s frustrating sometimes to run D 7/8/9 bots with Rambo’s who use up all reinforcements in the first 5 mins. Thanks!!
@@EravinVT Thank you for uploading them :) what do you think of the nerfs? I think the eruptor one was uncalled for, also I was wondering if it's possible to add you / play with you? You seem lots of fun to hang ot with
8:44 I can confirm this strategy works, just I tend to end up skipping the bot drop baiting and w keying the entire thing with clusters and an autocannon since I am not in in fact, a "ghost diver". Still effective even when I make it twice as hard as it has to be. Also on a side note, your best options against dropships are laser cannon, autocannon, anti material rifle, quasar cannon, and if you have a cooperative teammate, recoilless rifle .
And on a side note, I don't advise running quasar cannon against bots unless you're very confident in your ability to clear devestators and multiple gunships in a timely manner
Surprized how many of these I already implement, the only one I haven't used is smoke on terminals, cause I don't carry smokes (already carrying stun nades and emp mortar). As a LC user, I usually prone, then after making sure the area is clear (or there is a fab nearby) summon in a Lc safely asap just in case of gunships.
@@bigmcthankiesfrommcspankie612 Hello hello. Welcome to the deep dive of Eravin's youtube channel. lol There's some good stuff here and the ghostdiver community has been great for my enjoyment of helldivers!
@@bigmcthankiesfrommcspankie612 Hello Hello! I'm a big fan of this particular video because it is one that I am in. :) Still a very big fan of the "vibe check" lol
Something I’ve noticed about the gunships is that they’re not omnipotent, just hypersensitive. They spawn in with the alerted status, but can be lost with some difficulty and no small amount of luck. I’ve had fabricators spawn ships up 170m away, which is actually good, because most enemies spawn at 140m, so you can spawn the first wave, destroy them, and only then advance on the facility, so the guards won’t exist to catch the alert. Also, I find that splitting up is often the best way to bring facilities down. One or two people hang back and cover the sky, while the rest move in to plant the bomb. The Spear is actually a great choice for the AA support position, as you almost always have a clear line on the ships and one shot them no matter where the rocket hits. This is even more true in a less coordinated squad, as you can be doing something else 200m away and still support that one teammate who went in without the rest of you. I find that this alone is usually not a good enough reason to take the Spear, but in a blitz mission where the Spear can also carry the objective and you might not have time for a coordinated assault, it’s highly useful. One other thing about gunships, they seem to be alerted to the players building the most heat, regardless of location. I had allies halfway across the map getting into a massive firefight while I snuck towards the gunship facility, and every ship that spawned beelined toward them. Funnily enough, the distance was so great that they despawned before reaching those allies.
@@EravinVT hm, I usually don’t have a problem with it, especially if I’m not the one getting hounded. I do hate when it has an aneurysm for no apparent reason and just doesn’t work, that is pretty annoying.
@@EravinVT I've had a situation where it took down 3 gunships in ~20 seconds, since you can lock on while reloading and if you hold left click the whole time it will fire instantly once the reload is done. I think the lock is affected by smoke and weather though
My stealth trick: dropping a weapon or resupply hellpod on a bot fabricator often destroys it without revealing your location (contrary to most red-beam stratagems). Thus, an EAT pod is equivalent to a stealth Precision Strike!
I never knew that the detection range affected the bot's pursuit chance. I've never really been a full stealth kinda guy but I do aggresively initiate tactical movement so I'll have to give the scout armors another shot
Fun fact, stratagems like EAT-17 or say sacrificial sentry will act as a poorman's smoke. For EAT-17 they'll attack the hellpod and forgor 💀 about you. If you can't see them in the generic map fog they can still see you just fine. Also I wouldn't recommend light recon armor unless you're all running light armor in general. Being able to get to something 5 seconds faster vs being able to shrug an extra hit isn't worth it to me. There's only one medium recon armor I can think of and honestly you probably only need one person to wear it to scout locations. While the others can bring extra stims, grenades, ect. Lastly if you don't need samples you can actually speed run some missions if you ignore everything but main. To do daily orders (like yesterday with the 200 stalward kills) I could play a couple level 1s in the time it would take to play a single level 9.
we always full clear 9 always, just how it is it's what we enjoy. We play self sufficient and split up regularly as it's the most efficient way to get stuff done on Bots 9, so we rarely have each other on screen during an Operation. 20 minutes in out full clears is what we do
Lasor cannon is honestly the most efficient anti gunship support weapon also as a side note Gunships seem to be the ONLY target the Spear locks on too without issue.
Laser cannon like the constant damage one? Noted. Queso launcher isn't **bad** at it but that wind up during a double gunship base would probably be too much vs going ham with auto cannons
#Quickplay tip : when dropping on planet, just steer your drop pod as far as possible from ally dropzone then get prone. Sometimes I was able to push all objectives in less than 10min while they were still fighting on drop site. xD
I knew smokes hid players, but Hellbombs too? Okay, at first I was curious. But you really got my attention there. Thermites are going to get phased out of my solo play into smokes now. Thank you kindly
@@EravinVT I could be wrong but I am pretty sure that Geological Survey mission objectives force a bot drop to spawn on the objective regardless of whether or not there is an active drop or if it's on cooldown.
Here's a question. Say there's 4 divers. 3 are assaulting, 1 hasn't shot and is in scout armor. They are all next to each other, but let's say the scout hasn't been line of sighted yet. Are enemies aware of the scout?
@@EravinVT From what I've heard, if you are within 50m of a teammate I think, if your teammate engages bots then disengages and breaks line of site, bots auto alert to your position even if you haven't been spotted correct?
I have a Eruptor breakdown video on my channel, in that series I test every weapon against every enemy and report the findings! Eruptor can infact 1 shot a gunship however it's maximum range of 125m and muzzle velocity makes this very challenging
Cool stuff. How viable is it to support the team from stealth with something like thr AMR? I presume there is a safe distance from which you can fire the AMR without drawing aggro. I typically use the jetpack with my AMR for quick escapes, but extrene range and stealth could be a viable way to both play split and also assist one another.
Plasma Scorcher is the quietest primary so it's a staple. I have a video titled the Ultimate Stealth Loadout, as well as talk about sound profiles briefly in one of the other stealth tips videos. Recommend given em a look!
Question, how effective are smoke strategems compared to smoke grenades (notably, do they cause initial aggro when they enter the field like most other strategems?)
they do cause aggro like any red stratagem, Smoke will cause aggression like any grenade but only if thrown on an enemy so they are a more precise tool
I cover them individually in my weapon breakdowns, however I do not have a complete list as a video yet, I'm waiting for suppressed weapon variants to be in the game so I have the full story and can cover it thoroughly
How do you figure this all out? I get testing something like detection range, but how do you figure out things like the game running checks on pursuit when LoS is broken?
By spending an absolute ton of time playing Helldivers 2 with a low profile on the battlefield and testing enemy pursuit breaks an absurd amount over time. Until I was able to determine the science behind it
Honestly I just play them pretty straight up and shoot em dead, They are more difficult to stealth around, but far easier in direct combat. We still split up and bait breaches, but overall we take alot more fights
Ya no thanks. For one, playing this game solo is boring AF, and number 2, I would not find it fun to be sneaking and crawling around a huge map. How about stop being cowards, turn your mics on, and try playing the game as intended.

Hi do you have tips on how to play stealth on bug maps? Or is it just impossible because of just how quick they reinforce and gap close.
Honestly I just play them pretty straight up and shoot em dead, They are more difficult to stealth around, but far easier in direct combat. We still split up and bait breaches, but overall we take alot more fights
Oh no, not the Railgun. How will I get by?
*has not used the Railgun in over 1 month*
That was the joke
3:09 What do you mean by "get soft locked" while trying to break pursuit?
covered in detail in the previous video! I go over all the forms of detection and statuses enemies can have
I'm running out of things to say to help in the algorithm...
understandable
Never mind I've got one, I'll use it on your next weapon breakdown.
You’re awesome
If the entire purpose of this game for me was not to blow everything to kingdom come, this would all be excellent advice.
"...that understand the importance of subtlety, and not firing at every enemy you see"
**Looks at trashpanda** hmmmmmmm
lol roasted
Reinforce baiting, what tag at the top of the screen?
The one that says Bot Drop Detected

Not anymore. They just ruined solo play. EDIT: Spoke too soon. It's not as bad as I thought.
How?
How?
@@thatguywiththej7854 I spoke too soon. I'm still soloing, it's tough, but doable.
Smoke is our friend. o7
Ya no thanks. For one, playing this game solo is boring AF, and number 2, I would not find it fun to be sneaking and crawling around a huge map.
How about stop being cowards, turn your mics on, and try playing the game as intended.
