NEW and BEST Way To Farm XP⧸MEDALS⧸SAMPLES In Helldivers 2 (NEW PATCH UPDATED)

Okay, so there's a bunch of new weapons in

Helldivers 2 now, so I'm guessing you want

medals and XP and stuff like that to be

able to get new weapons like I do. I need

to grind hundreds of medals now to get the

new weapons in the new War Bonds, so I

made a video today about the best way to

farm medals. Basically, it's the Automaton

Defense mission. Now they have buffed the

mission, so it's a bit more difficult now,

and you have to kill 500 Automatons

instead of just think it was 150 before,

which is so— it was so easy to kill 150.

So they finally beefed it up a bit to 500.

And basically what you want to do is just

get the sentries. You want Rocket Sentry,

EMP or EMS Mortar, and also the usual

mortars. And it's not as easy as it used

to be before. You just put the mortars

down and the enemies didn't even make it

up to the top where you're standing. But

now Yeah, they do actually make it to the

top, and it's kind of challenging. So the

best way to tackle it really is same

tactic as before with the mortars, but now

you've got to be a bit on your toes. You

can't just go AFK at the top, and you've

actually got to engage with enemies. Now I

found a way— I don't know if it was a bug

or something, but I was doing this mission

earlier today, and for some reason the

dropships were just getting blown out the

sky. With 1 or 2 shots from the turrets.

Now I can't seem to be able to replicate

that, so I'm guessing that was a bug from

that mission. Oops, grenade. I just threw

the grenade back at my own foot. So what

you want to do is try and kill as many as

you can. I've killed about 200 so far,

and it should only take a few minutes,

and then you can get a bunch of medals.

Um, seems like my team are not doing that

great. I don't know what my team's doing.

Things can get kind of tricky. Remember,

you can put the mortars on top of these

little bunker things. And my teammate just

killed me. Okay, he's getting kicked.

Bye-bye, idiot.

Haha, that's what you get for team

killing. I don't know if you can drop

directly through the dropships. Okay, so

I'll show you step by step how to do this.

Go to an Automaton planet and look

for a little crosshair sign. This one,

kill Automatons to reduce their numbers.

And we just launch into a game. Ideally,

don't have the debuff where you can only

choose 3 Strasgems because that means you

get one less mortar, which severely makes

it more challenging.

But if you like to be mentally challenged,

then maybe you don't mind. But we're not

really here to be challenged, we just want

to farm medals, don't we? So we can get

new brand spanking shiny new weapons.

I got this stupid debuff again. What is

the point of that stupid fucking debuff?

Okay, just choose rocket,

mortar, autocannon. I forgot to choose a

booster, and I forgot to wait for people

to join my party. Now we're gonna land,

it's just gonna be me.

Oh well, these things happen,

that's just life.

Well, it dropped down really quick,

didn't even let me choose where to land.

Okay, put down a quick beacon, put down a

mortar. Auto Cannon.

Put the Auto Cannon here, and Rocket

Sentry can go— can

go maybe over there. I don't know. I don't

know how to redo that bug so the dropships

keep getting blown up. That was a weird

bug. They were just getting one-shot out

the sky. Okay, I'm on my own, so I'm gonna

This is basically what you want to do.

Why is no one joining my team? Stupid bug

matchmaking piece of shit game.

4 or 5 weeks this game's out and they

can't fix the stupid matchmaking.

Ah, 2 people joined.

Hopefully I can survive. The problem is my

sentries will get blown up. I gotta

protect the sentries. The sentries are

gonna do the heavy lifting. I can

climb into the bunker.

Whoa, that guy went flying!

Oh my God. Why would

you put an airstrike there?

I don't even know if I can finish this

mission if I don't get some new players.

I don't know if you can land on the

dropship. Oh, that would be funny if you

land on the dropship. Uh-oh,

that was not good.

Oh, we can still get the mechs. I actually

completely forgot about the mechs. Can I

get one too? I can't get

a mech. Why can't I get a mech?

Lame.

Oh, they got mechs too. Oh, how come

everyone's got a mech?

Do we have to unlock it or something?

When the mechs first came out, it was just

available for everyone.

We're nearly halfway there. Come on,

guys,

it's not looking

good.

Darn, I'm out of ammo again.

Stupid way of saying it.

Why'd they make the voice actress say it

like that? Can you say, I need stims, but

sound as retarded as possible?

If I— I was gonna land on the tower.

Need to kill another 200. Now usually this

is really easy if you've got a full team

from the beginning with— they're just

everywhere. Oh my god.

Usually it's easier if you start off with

a full team that all deploy the mortars.

I don't know what my team chose.

Everyone's dead. What a rubbish team.

I'm gonna land on the tank. Oh, can I get—

oh, I nearly got the tank.

Jump on the tank. Can you still jump? Oh

yeah, then go prone on the tank.

Shoot their own tank.

Did they actually shoot their own tank?

I think hitting the tank counts as like

20. Why can't we find one more team

member?

Oh, finally someone joined. How many

hundreds of thousands of people? I don't

even know how many are playing anymore.

Probably just like 20,000 now.

Don't think the game's as popular as it

used to be. Took like It's taking

10 minutes to find a 4th person.

Come on, 100 more, then I get 8

medals. I need hundreds.

Everyone died.

What?
