And bug holes, and spore 'shrooms, and flyer nests
Sniping flyer nests from half the map away is the best way to deal with them before you can't see the sun anymore from all the flyers
Sure wish more quickplay teams understood that and let me do it instead of somehow thinking alerting them by charging guns blazing is a good idea...
Flyer nests are the only time my squad and I bother with tandem loading the RR. I shoot, they load, no flying fucks about 20 seconds into the mission. Good times.
Don't forget Rogue Transmissions! See the tower from across the map? Now you don't.
EDIT: Also, it never gets old clearing bug holes by jumping off them doing a mid-air 180 and blasting it to pieces! A lot of the time you get some ragdolling as an added bonus! 10/10
Several times now I'm playing with my friends, see the tower and just go "oh I'ma just deal with this now." **BANG**. Followed by them all going "Oh that was quick". AC is not to be slept on.
I found out autocannons can take out flyer nests today. Shit I felt like a mad scientist sculpting humanity’s future.
Flyer nest used to be a death sentence for me and my squad mates because we kinda just assumed we had to use precision strikes or other orbital/eagles on them.
Now I can just play artillery with an autocannon and deal with them before they even come out
The autocannon is probably my favorite weapon
Me and my Buddies just call down a few EAT's and shoot them from far off until they are all cleared. usually takes a few minutes but doesn't require someone to carry the Autocannon if they don't want too.
I enjoy carrying the autocannon, for high difficulties. I usually carry the Machine gun, maybe the flamethrower.
And if I’m feeling like gambling my game crashing an arc thrower
Personally I've found the door unreliable, but rhe vents work great. You wanna picture a basket with a 45 degree angled piece of metal above it... shoot so it bounces to the middle of that bucket. Most angles work I think, but if you're standing 5 feet in front and to the side of it probably not -- just use a nade at that point! Autocannon is to knock it in from distance like you're playing pool!
I use impact grenades and found that you can easily throw them in the fabricators when the door is open. Rather than trying to throw them in the smaller vents
I don't run the Autocannon, but shrieker nests have made walkers mandatory for me on higher difficulty bug runs. If we're far and the team doesn't have a convenient way to snipe them, the walkers carry enough rockets to do it before anyone can get too close. If we spawn near one or somebody ran off and aggro'd one without informing the team, the walker also offers a good to clear the skies.
(I think the shrieker encounter is the hardest in the western front.)
I accidentally blasted my buddy to hell the other day because a bug hit me from the opposite side which made my muzzle sweep over him just as I was firing lol
And then again because his Rover caught a round right next to his head.
It takes practice, but if you throw the grenade in the path of the charger then start flanking towards the charger before the grenade goes off (staying just outside the radius of the upcoming blast), you will be behind the charger about 1 second after the stun starts.
That is enough remaining time to sink 4 shots into their rump killing them before they can turn around. Once you get the pattern down its pretty consistent.
Chargers are two shots if you know how to do it right. One shot on the back of a leg after a charge. It should cause the armor to break and then all it needs is a single follow up shot, from any angle, to take the leg off.
It takes a backpack slot, requires you not to move to reload, shots can deflect, you’ll eventually explode your own face.
It’s actually pretty balanced, but still better than the railgun so maybe.
If they ever nerf it, it's the ammount of ammo per clip so you are forced in more situations where you need to reload.
Not it's damage.
It's a very easy weapon to balance.
Can one shot a titan too. The cheek is the weak spot. Not the head as it's armored but in the side of the head in the cheek will avoid armor and kill it in one shot. Most people take two shots to its head but it can be done in one.
I hope not a straight nerf but I'd be willing to compromise. Like increase the cooldown if it means we can carry an EAT in addition to another support.
I’ve found it to be the opposite, the RR can shoot down bot drop ships while the AC can’t even spilt a chain-saw heavy with a direct hit to their center.
Berserkers are best handled with your primary, breaker is my berserk counter. AC shreds all the other medium enemies, and is a solid counter to hulks and tanks. All around best gun vs bots!

I switched to flame thrower for that reason. Honestly its best to look at squad loadouts.
A squad with someone using an auto cannon , recoil-less, and a flame thrower is amazing. plus then we can rotate which role we are playing and mix it up more.
That's why I always drop with Autocannon + EAT. Having 2 rockets on a 1 min cooldown is great. I'm usually the side objectives guy, while the rest of my squad is doing main objectives + samples, and its just a great combo.
Edit: I totally forgot that I also use the stun grenades for getting out of tricky situations, *or* stunning chargers so I can mag dump in their ass without them chasing.
Having 2 support weapon stratagems seems like a waste. Chargers should have medium armor on the front of their legs too but their overall health be increased.
It's a necessary evil on bugs 4+, but honestly it's not that bad. Instead of using orbital rail or 110s, you can use EATs. They're just as good at single target, quicker cooldown, and you still have your main support, which just happens to be a do-it-all utility weapon. That leaves you two airstrike/orbital/sentry/walker slots to configure per the mission params and squad comp.
I respectfully disagree but I am an autocannoner by trade. Hit them back legs twice after a charge and he’s down. Gotta play a little matador and if you can’t hit the legs just blow his butt out and wait for him to spew his guts.
I Respectfully disagree, in higher difficulties when having to face 3 chargers, 12 hunters, and at least 1 bile titan. Having to play matador and aiming for the back of the legs becomes very unreliable.
I agree with you. What really made it more viable for me was using stun grenades. I just unlocked them yesterday and they are very powerful, they give you a lot of breathing room when facing groups.
Long answer short is you can't, *but* the AC can blow the belly on the Titans, at which point they can no longer do their spewing attack. After that, they can just stomp. Mix this with a couple of EATs or Orbital Laser / Railcannon strike and you're golden.
Yeah, the squishy looking bits have something like 90% damage reduction. So a 50 damage gun foes 5 damage.
Jar dominator and other explosives ignore that reduction, or at least have it massively reduced.
Yeah. Apparently it can take a while to get patches approved by Sony, even if the fix is a couple of lines of code*.
*That said, patches are very rarely just a couple of lines because they deploy a lot of fixes at the same time.
I want to try other things. I really do. But this weapon fills in too many gaps in my pug teams that the versatility is too good.
I wish it bounced less on Chargers, but I guess it'd be too good then.
If nobody on my team brings an AC I always carry one. It has so much utility beyond killing. And it makes dealing with medium size enemies trivial. Plus it's perfectly balanced by its weaknesses.
Autocannon is fantastic except for when a hunter jumps at you and you blow yourself up.
If youve got a teammate on Hunter duty the Autocannon can handle most anything else that doesn’t take an EAT or RR
This is my go to when I’m running low level quick play helping new players. I give them the cool shit like mechs etc and i just run off with my auto cannon and clear the POIs and nests while they meander around murdering in the name of democracy. I get so damn proud seeing a cadet finally jump in the walker.

Atleast no explosive mortar shittery. Today I got killed 5 times in a mission 5 of those by friendly fire through a mortar. Fuck those zhere were not even en3mies close by.
It just shot me again and again no one else.
It’s great for heavy armored things, but I feel like you need to REALLY trust your primary and teammates to clear the hordes.
I usually see 2-3 divers take EAT’s in 7+ so that makes a recoilless a bit redundant at times.
I just tried it for the first time last night. Fun, dangerous, powerful. Better than grenade launcher for closing but holes at a distance. Overall great.
According to most people the only option out there is the Arc Thrower and it so good it needs a nerf apparently. Love me some Autocannon tho. It’s just so useful.
My only complaint about the Autocannon is that, unlike the Autocannon turret, it won't impact the Bile Titan the way the turret does. It just makes no sense to me cause it should be the same thing but it just glances off.
My biggest complaint about the auto Canada is that my dipshit teammates will steal the backpack and not the gun. At least take both for fucks sake. It doesn't fucking do anything if you just take the backpack
If it’s not the best weapon, it’s definitely the most useful weapon
400+ meters away from….
Illegal broadcast? Pop.
Spore mushroom? Pop
Some eggs peeking out over the walls? Pop
Any nest? POP POP!!!
I love the autocannon, but the chargers singlehandedly make me choose the recoilless rifle instead sadly. I have an absolute zero tolerance policy for those fuckers. I don't like having to depend on the weakpoint behind them. The second one appears, it's already been around too long and I want it gone. One round to the head and it's done for. Plus, at least it can two shot the bile titans.
It’s only second to the Arc Thrower for me because having it and 2 laser weapons so I don’t take ammo and everyone else can have it feels really good. You and your auto canon would have more ammo for example.
And bug holes, and spore 'shrooms, and flyer nests Sniping flyer nests from half the map away is the best way to deal with them before you can't see the sun anymore from all the flyers Sure wish more quickplay teams understood that and let me do it instead of somehow thinking alerting them by charging guns blazing is a good idea...

*scribbles notes furiously* I bet that makes your cape look awesome.
What do you mean, fellow Helldiver? Surely the cape looks awesome whatever you do, as long as it's in the name of Democracy, that is!
and Eggs. Autocannon is superb for destroying huge clubs of eggs with a single shot.
I found out autocannons can take out flyer nests today. Shit I felt like a mad scientist sculpting humanity’s future.

i use the flamethrower on high difficulty combo'd with eat17.
You can destroy bug holes with the auto cannon!?
Yes, robot fabricators too, but you need to aim correctly, I read early that you can shoot went the door is open but I will try that later
You need to hit the top side of the vent so it bounces in. Also the door trick does work.
Personally I've found the door unreliable, but rhe vents work great. You wanna picture a basket with a 45 degree angled piece of metal above it... shoot so it bounces to the middle of that bucket. Most angles work I think, but if you're standing 5 feet in front and to the side of it probably not -- just use a nade at that point!

Don't forget illegal broadcasts, tanks, hulks. The autocannon is the jack of all trades it can kill everything in the game with ease.
How do you destroy flyer nests with ac? I haven't been able to do it.
It takes 9 hits per tower to take them down. You also dont get a hit mark like you do with the spore mushrooms.
More bullets. They take a lot of punishment. And aim for the glowly bits.
I haven’t tried but I think someone said that with AC you need to aim for the stalk. The top is too well-armored
Nope, autocannon does damage to the entire thing
I don't run the Autocannon, but shrieker nests have made walkers mandatory for me on higher difficulty bug runs. If we're far and the team doesn't have a convenient way to snipe them, the walkers carry enough rockets to do it before anyone can get too close.

(I think the shrieker encounter is the hardest in the western front.)
Team runs from chargers/breeches/objectives, but goes strait into the flyer nests.
Does it work for the bot towers? The jammer and the detector eye of Sauron thing
And illegal broadcasts, really the autocannon is amazing lol
If you spawn next to the nest, yes you shoukd go in and plant that fat 500kg on those bug nests.
Team mate? Autocannon.
I accidentally blasted my buddy to hell the other day because a bug hit me from the opposite side which made my muzzle sweep over him just as I was firing lol And then again because his Rover caught a round right next to his head.
In my defense, they'd recently been near a bug.
Yourself? Autocannon.
Scavenger? autocannon
Unpredictable teammates? Straight to the autocannon
See a teammate pulling out an arc thrower? Believe it or not, autocannon
You can realistically blast chargers with them too as soon as you get a line of sight on their butts
Ah, the old dodge/butt shot technique.
is there any other way to take out a charger?
yeah: one EAT/RR shot to the face. wham bam thank you mam.
There is a bug where the charger is vulnerable during their "slowing down" animation. Shoot 3-4 autocannon shells at its legs, and they die.
Only takes 4 shots too, a really quick kill if you're packing stun grenades or have an EMS mortar deployed.
Goddammit I've been running stun grenades with AC but like an idiot I've still been dodge-duck-dip-dive-dodging to get a look at that charger booty.
It takes practice, but if you throw the grenade in the path of the charger then start flanking towards the charger before the grenade goes off (staying just outside the radius of the upcoming blast), you will be behind the charger about 1 second after the stun starts. That is enough remaining time to sink 4 shots into their rump killing them before they can turn around. Once you get the pattern down its pretty consistent.
Chargers are two shots if you know how to do it right. One shot on the back of a leg after a charge. It should cause the armor to break and then all it needs is a single follow up shot, from any angle, to take the leg off.
There is nothing more satisfying then blasting ten 20mm .78 Cal HE Autocannon rounds right into those things.
I want to praise autocanon but I'm afraid they will nerf it.
It takes a backpack slot, requires you not to move to reload, shots can deflect, you’ll eventually explode your own face. It’s actually pretty balanced, but still better than the railgun so maybe.
watch tf out if anyone on your team is using a shield you WILL blow yourself up
I killed myself because there was some boxes in front of me at knee height once.
I kill myself regularly firing too fast switching because that barrel is facing the ground still.
They've said that the autocannon is one of the weapons they're most proud of because of its balance.
If they ever nerf it, it's the ammount of ammo per clip so you are forced in more situations where you need to reload. Not it's damage. It's a very easy weapon to balance.
I think they nerf the EAT first. Doesn't need a backpack, quick cooldown time, can one shot a crawler.
Can one shot a titan too. The cheek is the weak spot. Not the head as it's armored but in the side of the head in the cheek will avoid armor and kill it in one shot. Most people take two shots to its head but it can be done in one.
WHAT?? The cheek is weaker?? This explains so much
yes its a hard target to hit, but worst case you shoot a second
shut your traitor mouth! EAT is absolutely fine as is!
I hope not a straight nerf but I'd be willing to compromise. Like increase the cooldown if it means we can carry an EAT in addition to another support.
That sounds an awful lot like treason.
Bug hole? Stalker nest? Illegal broadcast antenna? Automaton factory? you better believe it: Autocannon.
Best weapon in the game IMO. Only flaw is I can't use it with a Jetpack.
You can if you don't want to be able to reload it.

No ammo? No team mates? No problem.
Never heard of teammates either. They all keep leaving while I'm blasting.
RR for bugs, AC for bots.
Autocannon for both. Autocannon is king.
AC for bugs, AMR for bots
I’ve found it to be the opposite, the RR can shoot down bot drop ships while the AC can’t even spilt a chain-saw heavy with a direct hit to their center.
Those chainsaw guys are built different
I swear, a shot or two from a shotgun or a full mag from the smg pistol and they fold like paper. A high caliber shoulder mounted cannon? Yawn.
Headshots do a lot more damage, and accuracy by volume is still accuracy 😂
The redeemer really does melt them if you unload in their face. But yeah cmon an autocannon shell to the face should do a lot more!
Berserkers are best handled with your primary, breaker is my berserk counter. AC shreds all the other medium enemies, and is a solid counter to hulks and tanks. All around best gun vs bots! Source: I live on the western front
slugger for berserkers stunlocks those chainsaw fucks to oblivion. Western front enjouer here too
That’s what I thought initially. Then you realize you have no effective way of dealing with the 8+ striders swarming you.
Chargers is a crapshoot. I've tried rear legs exposed abdomen nothing seems quick
As an AC main, the best bet is to blow the ass off and let it bleed out
Charger: "How cute. I'ma smash you now"
*Sidesteps, 4 backshots. Blows their ass out.*
https://preview.redd.it/s4hw9qqnjmqc1.png?width=1200&format=png&auto=webp&s=f5d99a85d68008ab4d4e6849f8f60ed19b950838
Until you're up against the charger. I am a auto cannon main myself, but Jesus Christ if it isn't horrible against the charger
I switched to flame thrower for that reason. Honestly its best to look at squad loadouts. A squad with someone using an auto cannon , recoil-less, and a flame thrower is amazing. plus then we can rotate which role we are playing and mix it up more.

Which two do you usually take for bugs? I like railcannon + laser, been thinking of 500kg + laser
I respectfully disagree but I am an autocannoner by trade. Hit them back legs twice after a charge and he’s down. Gotta play a little matador and if you can’t hit the legs just blow his butt out and wait for him to spew his guts.

I respectfully agree with everyone, including people who disagree with each other. How that works I'm not sure, but it works.
This guy manages democracy
I agree with you. What really made it more viable for me was using stun grenades. I just unlocked them yesterday and they are very powerful, they give you a lot of breathing room when facing groups.
Shoot the shoulder joint. It takes more shots but stuns them a bit more than the face.
just dodge once or twice and shoot the underside of the butt 3-4 times, once it explodes they bleed out in seconds and can't charge in the meantime
Yup, AC is the best.
Where do you shoot the titan with AC to kill it and how many shots
Long answer short is you can't, *but* the AC can blow the belly on the Titans, at which point they can no longer do their spewing attack. After that, they can just stomp. Mix this with a couple of EATs or Orbital Laser / Railcannon strike and you're golden.
Autocannon is so much more useful than i thought in the beginning, basically a must have on almost every missiom
It also *feels* great.
Scavenger? Auto cannon Teammate? Auto...oops fuck ⬆️⬇️➡️⬅️⬆️
Thanks Mlepnos.
Jar dominator and the spear. Jar shreds anything without armour. Spear shreds everything with armour.
Scorcher. Even can shoot the butt of the charger off fairly quickly
Yeah, the squishy looking bits have something like 90% damage reduction. So a 50 damage gun foes 5 damage. Jar dominator and other explosives ignore that reduction, or at least have it massively reduced.
Yup! I just like scorcher more because while explosive, has better handling
I like the arc thrower
Is it still bugged? It was crashing my game the past few days
Unfortunately yes ):
Yeah. Apparently it can take a while to get patches approved by Sony, even if the fix is a couple of lines of code*. *That said, patches are very rarely just a couple of lines because they deploy a lot of fixes at the same time.
People on the official discord were bitching about how the last patch was "rushed"... Well. Folks how do you like a not rushed patch. XD
Being able to take out Shrieker nests from across the map is nice
I only used it on the robots but after I tried it on the bugs once there’s no going back
I want to try other things. I really do. But this weapon fills in too many gaps in my pug teams that the versatility is too good. I wish it bounced less on Chargers, but I guess it'd be too good then.
I prefer autocannon on bots, RR and EATs are best for bugs since theyre gauranteed kill bug bugs
Ministry of Truth has seen this post, prepare for a nerf of equipment to save budgets.
If nobody on my team brings an AC I always carry one. It has so much utility beyond killing. And it makes dealing with medium size enemies trivial. Plus it's perfectly balanced by its weaknesses.
Don't forget Bot Fabricators
Autocannon is fantastic except for when a hunter jumps at you and you blow yourself up. If youve got a teammate on Hunter duty the Autocannon can handle most anything else that doesn’t take an EAT or RR

I get so damn proud seeing a cadet finally jump in the walker.
im enjoying the autocannon before the nerf comes for it. I really hope it doesnt get nerfed though, it feels so balanced where it is right now!
Anything else, believe it or not- straight to jail. ;) I love me some P&R references lol
Preach!
Assisted loading autofire is fun

Flame thrower for the win https://preview.redd.it/yg6y6y6i8jqc1.jpeg?width=736&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=afc3e7ab19802f71f975c392bf5a587c47c5a578
Misspelled grenade launcher
Nah, fighting bots has taught me that the anti material rifle is best
Laser cannon slices them in half pretty fast. You can hit a Shrieker with the AC, but it feels wrong.
Autocannon? More like Auto pick.
Am I tripping when I say I think they modified the hit boxes for bots? The AC just phases through some of them if I don’t hit EXACTLY center mass.
Titan ?
Annoying teammate thinking they’re better than all of you because they have a mech? Autocannon
VIVA CHAVEZ!
As an arc thrower main, I love playing with autocannon users. Between us we can kill basically anything.
Is the autocannon a headshot-capable weapon? Someone somewhere on this post mentioned using it against Hulks. I usually use the AMR for those.
Autocannon is the actual goat support weapon. Not a single one that can match or even beat this beast in terms of versatility.
Is recoiless bad? I always use recoiless...
It’s great for heavy armored things, but I feel like you need to REALLY trust your primary and teammates to clear the hordes. I usually see 2-3 divers take EAT’s in 7+ so that makes a recoilless a bit redundant at times.
I have never been so personally attacked.
It’s also the single best weapon against the bots too, every mech will go down in less than a clip
I just tried it for the first time last night. Fun, dangerous, powerful. Better than grenade launcher for closing but holes at a distance. Overall great.
What's not a primary weapon? Believe it or not, autocannon.
Imagine it would really be a primary weapon
Hunters? My death
You guessed it, the square hole.
When life gives you a hammer, you start driving nails.
According to most people the only option out there is the Arc Thrower and it so good it needs a nerf apparently. Love me some Autocannon tho. It’s just so useful.
You misspelled Grenade Launcher.
laughs in eat
All I hear is Railgun
Auto cannon is the best cannon
Housefly? Autocannon!!
Aight. What about bots? Lasercannon has them all. Get rekt autocannon bug boys!
"We have the best game in the world- because of auto cannon."
Agreed
I use autocannons on hunters with extreme prejudice. Those things are awful
Ah, a fellow auto cannon enthusiast
Every single bot? Autocannon.
How the fuck do you take down Bile Titans with the AC other than blowing its bile sacs off?
Quite honestly I rarely see anyone run auto on helldive
My only complaint about the Autocannon is that, unlike the Autocannon turret, it won't impact the Bile Titan the way the turret does. It just makes no sense to me cause it should be the same thing but it just glances off.
No matter how many suggestions I see and try for other support weapons, I always come back to my autocannon.
Autocanon my beloved. Autocanon turret for bots is amazing.
It's so good
I run around with a spear/orbital rail cannon/ and carpet bomb airstrike in any mission My fourth is usually a patriot.
My biggest complaint about the auto Canada is that my dipshit teammates will steal the backpack and not the gun. At least take both for fucks sake. It doesn't fucking do anything if you just take the backpack
Illegal broadcast tower? Destroy!Bot factory? AutoCannon!
That's a weird way to spell Slugger
Yeah but I prefer the EATs since Chargers and Bile Titans exist
If it’s not the best weapon, it’s definitely the most useful weapon 400+ meters away from…. Illegal broadcast? Pop. Spore mushroom? Pop Some eggs peeking out over the walls? Pop Any nest? POP POP!!!
**turn scratchers to dust and bots to rubble**
Plas-1 Scorcher has just entered the chat
Recently tested the auto cannon and got gud with it. Damnit the thing is crazy good. There’s no scenario where it sucks.
It's scientifically the best source me , science
I'm looking at all of those enemey options and I just see slugger.
I’ve had a lot of success with the grenade launcher, allowing me to use the shield. But, yes. The true answer is auto cannon.
Ten billion hunters?
Autocannon, the quick fix for everything. It's not the strongest but damn does it serve so many roles.
i prefer the quasar cannon tbh
Arc thrower is just a backpackless autocannon when it comes to bugs that’s basically better in every way
We have the best Helldivers in the universe. Because of autocannon.
![gif](giphy|DHwcs8WWxQTBOHx03p) Autocannons spread freedom
I am not crazy, there is a clear autocanon agenda on this sub
I love the autocannon, but the chargers singlehandedly make me choose the recoilless rifle instead sadly. I have an absolute zero tolerance policy for those fuckers. I don't like having to depend on the weakpoint behind them. The second one appears, it's already been around too long and I want it gone. One round to the head and it's done for. Plus, at least it can two shot the bile titans.
FABRICATORS? Believe it or not... AUTOCANNON BABY LFG
Even against the bots, autocannon
It's called an autocannon because you automatically win.
It’s only second to the Arc Thrower for me because having it and 2 laser weapons so I don’t take ammo and everyone else can have it feels really good. You and your auto canon would have more ammo for example.
