Best Helldivers 2 Loadout

Helldivers 2 has gone from strength to strength as more Helldivers have joined in the fight for managed democracy. But with this continual growth, new players look to grizzled veterans of this multiplayer game for guidance. An individual’s loadout can spell disaster not only for yourself but the squad too, so it’s important to be ready for anything, and that all starts with the best Helldivers 2 build for Automatons, Terminids, and general use.
 

Helldivers 2 best builds

With so many options available, it’s easy to get lost in a sea of auto turrets, 500kg bombs, and flamethrowers. But, with one of our tailored builds, you’ll be liberated in no time. Depending on your playstyle or the front you fight on the most, you may find that one of these loadouts fits you better than the others, so try them all out and see which one suits you best.
Here are the best Helldivers 2 builds:

Terminid build

Primary: SG-225 Breaker Secondary: P-19 Redeemer Grenade: G-10 Incendiary Armor: Light – Fortified Strategems: Railgun, “Guard Dog” Rover, Mortar Sentry, and Orbital Railcannon Strike Booster: Stamina Enhancement

The aim of the game with this build is to always be on the move and our selection of armor, strategems and boosters feeds into this idea. The Rover will help thin the horde while we reload our Breaker or prep your railgun. The Orbital Railcannon can be used multiple times per mission, meaning no Charger will get in your way, and of course, the Breaker will be your primary as it is one of the Helldivers 2 best weapons.

Automaton build

Primary: AR-23P Liberator Penetrator Secondary: P-19 Redeemer Grenade: G-16 Impact Armor: Heavy – Democracy Protects Strategem: Autocannon, Mortar Sentry, EMS Mortar Sentry and 500kg Bomb Booster: Vitality Enhancement

Unlike our Terminid build, the aim with this build is slow but steady. We won’t be rushing enemy positions, instead, we will set up our duel mortars and push the enemy back to their fortifications and, once we get close enough, drop a 500kg to bring any structures down. We take Heavy armour to help offset any damage taken by the Automaton rockets and explosives.

All-round build

Primary: SG-225 Breaker Secondary: P-19 Redeemer Grenade: G-10 Incendiary Armor: Medium – Democracy Protects Strategem: Railgun, Shield Generator Pack, Autocannon Sentry, and Eagle Cluster Bomb. Booster: Stamina Enhancement

Finally, our all-round build can be used in most situations. While it may not specialize in any particular scenario, it will get the job done with some brute force, hopes, and dreams. With a Shield Generator Pack, almost nothing can take you down if you’re on the move, and with Cluster Bombs and Autocannon Sentries to cover, it should be clear sailing. Importantly we have used the Breaker and Railgun combo as it really can come in clutch in almost every match.
These are the best Helldivers 2 loadouts we could find, mix and match them to find something that fits you perfectly.
