In the intense battles of Helldivers 2, one crucial objective is to destroy fuel silos scattered across the battlefield. These silos pose a significant threat, and eliminating them is essential for mission success. But how exactly can you destroy these fuel silos? Let’s explore some effective strategies.
How to Destroy Fuel Silos in Helldivers 2
Forget your grenades and lasers, those won’t do the trick here. The only way to bring down a Fuel Silo is with a special tool called the Hellbomb. But fret not, these aren’t handed out like candy (well, not literally… hopefully).
Hellbomb Stratagem
The most reliable method to destroy fuel silos is by utilizing the Hellbomb stratagem. This powerful weapon can decimate the toughest of structures, including fuel silos. To deploy the Hellbomb, call for it using your Super Destroyer and wait for it to arrive at the designated location.
Unlocking the Hellbomb
- Get Close: First, you need to get within proximity of the Fuel Silo. You’ll see it as a large cylindrical building with red lights on top. Be prepared for some Automaton resistance on your approach.
- The Right Tool: As you get close, a new “Stratagem” will appear in your list – the Hellbomb. This is your key to demolition.
- Strategize and Call it In: Once in range and clear of enemies (ideally!), activate the Hellbomb Stratagem. You’ll see its location marker on the ground.
- Run for Cover: The Hellbomb packs a punch, so make sure you and your squad are a safe distance away before hitting “Activate.”
Remember
- Hellbombs are mission-specific: They won’t be available in every mission, only those where fuel destruction is an objective.
- Accuracy is key: Place the Hellbomb marker close to the Silo for maximum impact.
- Beware the defenders: Expect the Automatons to prioritize destroying the Hellbomb before it detonates. Protect it at all costs!
Coordination with Teammates
Cooperation and coordination with your teammates are crucial in Helldivers 2. Communicate with your squad members and strategize together to effectively target and destroy fuel silos. Coordinate the deployment of Hellbombs and other resources to maximize your team’s effectiveness on the battlefield.
Final Words
By following these strategies and working together with your team, you can effectively destroy fuel silos in Helldivers 2 and contribute to the overall success of your missions. Remember to stay focused, communicate effectively, and adapt your tactics as needed to overcome any challenges you encounter on the battlefield.
