Overview

Daniel runs a solo stealth sniper build against automatons on Helldive difficulty, using gear such as the Diligence Counter Sniper, Senator pistol, Thermite grenades, Trailblazer Scout armor, a 500 kg bomb, Airburst Strike, anti-materiel rifle, and a supply backpack.

Mission objectives are carried out by retrieving and transporting two SSD hard drives across hostile patrols, aligning the dish terminal, engaging Hulks and Devastators, and holding out for extraction with no reinforcements remaining.

A Helldive difficulty mission was achieved with zero deaths using a stealth sniper loadout.

Remarks were made regarding the potential fun of destroying dropships and catching another fish.
