Cover-Credits:
In Helldivers 2, one of the most common foes you'll encounter are the Warriors. These stocky grey bugs with pincers may seem intimidating at first, but with the right strategy, taking them down can be an easy task. Here we’ll cover everything you need to know about finding and defeating Warriors in Helldivers 2.
What are Warriors in Helldivers 2?
Warriors in Helldivers 2 are middling-sized Terminids with grey shells that raise up at the back and two pincers at the front. They are commonly found in missions that are medium difficulty or higher. Warriors are part of the general horde of Terminids that make up the enemy forces in Helldivers 2. They are not particularly strong or resilient, but they can pose a threat in large numbers.
Where to Find Warriors
Warriors tend to appear at medium difficulty levels and higher, making missions of these difficulties the ideal hunting grounds. They're commonly found in groups, making it possible to complete the Personal Order to kill 35 Warriors in a single mission.
How to Kill Warriors in Helldivers 2
Warriors don't have much health or any special abilities. They can be taken down with a single burst of fire, making them relatively easy targets. However, they can swarm you if you're not careful, so it's important to keep your distance. The best way to deal with groups of Warriors is to use the Eagle Airstrike or weapons with medium-armor penetration or explosive damage. Aim for their soft underbellies to take them down quickly.
Tips for Taking Down Warriors
Use Shotguns and armor-piercing weapons to remove some of their armor and reveal more vulnerable spots.
Watch out for their pincers and blow their heads off. They will die after a few seconds.
Any gun that has medium-armor penetration or explosive damage will do the trick.
If you manage to kill a Warrior with a shotgun within one meter, you will gain the "Eat This" achievement.
Completing the Personal Order
The personal order to kill 35 Warriors can be completed in a single mission without too much trouble, especially if you focus on missions of medium difficulty or higher. If you need help finding enough Warriors, try missions with less time, as they tend to spawn more enemies, increasing your chances of encountering Warriors.
