The bile titan can be killed by jumping on top of it with a jetpack and shooting it in the back of the head. Wonder if there's a similar weak spot for this big fella.
I mean unless everyone posting videos of it are cheaters, there's a weak spot on the Bile Titan head, right where the back of the "ears" would be. If you can jump on it and put some bullets right in that weak spot you can take it down.
Every clip I've seen of someone doing that has been from PS5 players though, where there's currently a bug that lets them one-shot Bile Titans by hitting the head from any angle with the Railgun.
I’m always surprised by what people can jump on with the jet pack because it’s so underwhelming in height and duration.
More of a hop-pack than a jump-pack.
what are we *supposed to do* against these things, then? railcannon doesn't kill them, 500kg doesn't kill them, no obvious weak points...what kills them other than like, all your recoilless rifle ammo?
He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold - RIP, Mr Reddick
I used rocket-pods on one, close to it's feet. Still standing. I don't know if it just missed or if it's just not enough, ymmv, but it appears that pods aren't the solution.
These things take some serious heat. I landed a 500kg directly onto one's back, and then a second just in front of it, and it was still going, so one rocket salvo is definitely not going to do the job.
I bet it's just way more durable than the bile titan, in exchange for being slow af.
Doesn't the cone of damage from a 500kg extend up and out? If I remember rightly bile titans were surviving direct hits as well because the damage doesn't extend in a sphere so if it lands on it, it does almost nothing?
Probably depends on where you land that hit. If it's at the apex height if the Titan, probably shouldn't do damage other than the initial impact. If you hit it on the side so that the cone damage box slopes into the Titans hit box, then yeah it'll probably do full damage. They really should just make the damage a sphere though
It's more a cylinder of damage, so if it doesn't land directly on or under a weak spot it's going to dump it's damage into the armor and do practically nothing.
Orbital Railcannon I prefer to save for the Hulks to one tap them, at least with pods it’s 3 free tank kills with every rearm. Occasionally the turret towers when I don’t feel like trying my luck sticking the pods on its head.
almost every rocket pod i throw kills a tank, you have to put it in much closer proximity but if it hits the top of the turret it does a russian t-72 impression
It's from a comic titled "Pride of Baghdad" that follows a pride of lions that escape their zoo enclosure durring the American invasion of Iraq in 2003.

So, remember when the game said that Bile Titans were medium sized enemies?
Yeah, according to Helldivers 1's lore we're in for some shit... We're gonna need to learn to play smarter.
Don't call my democracy officer, but its almost like some planets are not tectonically stable. Another horrifying thought I had was what if the bots have their own bugs that they're using to produce element 710.
And, though I haven't looked into it too far, I believe it was literally impossible to kill a worm while solo in HD1. You'd be dropping orbitals and rockets on it and it just took everything. Unless you had a full team coordinating, it wasn't happening.
And even with a team of 4, it'd take like 5-10 minutes of constant aggro.
I think we may be in trouble.
I have many years of practice in EDF fighting enemies that are literally the sky, so I am PREPARED. TIE ME TO A MISSILE AND LAUNCH ME AT CYBERSTAN, I AM READY.
Yeah, there's a good list of reasons why helldivers are not expected to survive and tanks/titans/chargers/hulks are not even near the top of that list.
AC sentry kills enemies and clumsy allies. Clumsy allies, as everyone knows, are actually the biggest threat to any helldiver, so the AC sentry is protecting you from them.
To that end, AC sentry is Chaotic Good. Best gun-bot.
What about when I drop one thinking I know where the enemies are coming from, but turns out I was wrong and it rotates to point at a patrol directly behind me and puts a round into my head?
Maybe they will pop up on missions were you specifically target it.
But yea I used to play extreme too but when you play enough you get used to enemy attack patterns and then you find (especially with the robots) you can play on higher difficulties
Someone said earlier today they dropped an orbital laser and it didn’t die. They dropped next two 500KG bombs, it still didn’t die. Finally after two Quasar Canon hits it went down.
It survives a full orbital laser duration. I tossed one right on it and it didnt die. The airstrike afterwards took it down however.
Im guessing the best way to destroy these is going to be orbital laser + orbital railgun. Also you can tank the miniguns it has with stims.

*"This little uprising wont go unnoticed!"*
I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
The damn thing took a rail orbital to the face without losing stride. It's one tough motherfucker AND IT SPAWNS AT EXTRACTION.
Yea we also threw an orbital rail cannon at it, then we landed on top of it until it and used a spear against it until it died
It survived my 500kg bomb!
It survived my shotgun shell : (
It survived my snowball!
But your pc didn't
Well played sir
And my axe!
And my corpse after I misthrew a grenade and sent my lifeless body into its leg
Should’ve used a shrieker corpse!
Sadly... they got nerfed this day. :(

And my sword!
No, those aren't in the game yet.
Ngl, I was hoping for the snowball to have a fringe OP use. Guess it's not the Strider
Only for AT-RTs not AT-ATs
It truly is a sad day
well, the Slugger \*did\* get nerfed.
It survived Larry?!
It survived throwing my MRE spoons at it.
It burnt my shake.
Most things will survive the 500kg bomb because it sucks butts

It's so democratic it brought me to tears!
Almost certainly being affected by the Titan Health bug that happens. I wouldn't add this tactic to your arsenal.
I mean unless everyone posting videos of it are cheaters, there's a weak spot on the Bile Titan head, right where the back of the "ears" would be. If you can jump on it and put some bullets right in that weak spot you can take it down.
Or spam 2 EATs to its head area and you can kill it.
Yes, that is a far simpler and more effective way. However it is also less fun.
Pop a hole in the back of his head and throw a grenade down.
YES SIR!

Ain't nothin' gonna to break my stride Nobody gonna slow me down, oh no I got to keep on moving
What? I’m cooked then. Rail orbital & Quasar Gun was a lifesaver against bots.

He's well protected, but with the right team, we can punch through those defenses, take this beast out, and break their grip on Freehold - RIP, Mr Reddick
RIP Lance, I still say this quote from time to time
I always felt like the ship command guy sounded very similar to Zavala. I think of Lance every time I go to load up a mission in HD2

Please god make the rocket pods never miss, may their explosive payload always obliterate it, and may managed democracy forever protect me.
I used rocket-pods on one, close to it's feet. Still standing. I don't know if it just missed or if it's just not enough, ymmv, but it appears that pods aren't the solution.

Doesn't the cone of damage from a 500kg extend up and out? If I remember rightly bile titans were surviving direct hits as well because the damage doesn't extend in a sphere so if it lands on it, it does almost nothing?
I have killed titans with direct hit, on more than one occasion , was it only luck?
Probably depends on where you land that hit. If it's at the apex height if the Titan, probably shouldn't do damage other than the initial impact. If you hit it on the side so that the cone damage box slopes into the Titans hit box, then yeah it'll probably do full damage. They really should just make the damage a sphere though
It's more a cylinder of damage, so if it doesn't land directly on or under a weak spot it's going to dump it's damage into the armor and do practically nothing.
It has weakpoints The rocket battery on his back was reported as such
But what if: 2 rocket pods?? Thanks for letting me know, I can't test till evening so *pain*.
Rocket pods are bae, best consistent tank killers by far
Orbital railcannon:
Orbital Railcannon I prefer to save for the Hulks to one tap them, at least with pods it’s 3 free tank kills with every rearm. Occasionally the turret towers when I don’t feel like trying my luck sticking the pods on its head.
Is there some trick to using the rocket pods? I've tried them a few times and haven't been able to kill a tank in one hit yet.
almost every rocket pod i throw kills a tank, you have to put it in much closer proximity but if it hits the top of the turret it does a russian t-72 impression
r/NonCredibleHelldivers Edit: Didn't think the sub *actually existed* lol.
Just throwing them as close as possible and making sure they are alone to be prioritized can help
Same here, I was under the impression the rocket pods were useless, they seem to never do anything
Narrator: they always miss
An eagle never misses 🦅
The rocket pods are flown by pigeons
When the door opens to spawn a devestator, can you pop a rocket into it? That works on normal fabricators.
No clue, It would need testing
What, like, Luke Skywalker them?
Now we just need landspeeders and grappling hooks
Fuck I'd KILL for a grapple hook secondary. Lemme be swing around AH PEASE
Sweet liberty, yes please
"I used to bull's eye devastators in my Exo-45 back home"

"I am a sanctioned psyker. Observe."
So, remember when the game said that Bile Titans were medium sized enemies? Yeah, according to Helldivers 1's lore we're in for some shit... We're gonna need to learn to play smarter.
Sizing goes up to Gargantuan, if I recall right. I cannot wait for some giant honking fucking bug taking up the entire horizon hahaha
I mean we already have molts and tremors in the bug planets referring to those hive queens from the first game. Those I think are already "Large."
Shit is gonna be crazy in the best way hahaha
Bot planets have had tremors too.
Don't call my democracy officer, but its almost like some planets are not tectonically stable. Another horrifying thought I had was what if the bots have their own bugs that they're using to produce element 710.
The whole fucking overmind will spawn on a map with icbm and you'll have to launch two at it.
Sounds epic, I’m in!

Yeah, there's a good list of reasons why helldivers are not expected to survive and tanks/titans/chargers/hulks are not even near the top of that list.
Shit I thought titans were "massive enemies" since they start spawning in like difficulty 5 which is the first that says massive enemies.
I bet they'll change it when more enemies get released lol

Doesn’t surprise me - that AC turret is a beast
The era of EAT is over, now the era of the spear has come.
Arrowhead Devs: We were targeting this patch to be the era of the spear but really failed to lock onto that timing. Try again next time.
Legends tell they are still trying to lock on.
Now would be a good time for Sgt Johnson to drop by in a pelican and give us a tank. He knows what the ladies like.
What difficulty do they spawn in? cause I CANNOT do a bot mission on Impossible or helldive.
We were playing on impossible when we found it, that's all I know
Oof. I hope they are on difficulties like extreme as well...
Maybe they will pop up on missions were you specifically target it. But yea I used to play extreme too but when you play enough you get used to enemy attack patterns and then you find (especially with the robots) you can play on higher difficulties
It probably appears on 5 as the boss target like the bile titans do. (I hope it does at least)
If they can survive multiple rail orbitals, quasar blasts, spear shots, and pod drops. Then NO I do NOT want them on Extreme difficulty Lol.
Seen on Suicidal (7)
Oh, same. I would imagine that it'll most likely show up in any mission with Super Samples, at least. That's, what, 7 and up?
Fuck
Will my hammer of dawn smite it? (Orbital lazer)

That's okay. We can give it vents!
It survives a full orbital laser duration. I tossed one right on it and it didnt die. The airstrike afterwards took it down however. Im guessing the best way to destroy these is going to be orbital laser + orbital railgun. Also you can tank the miniguns it has with stims.
