The QUICKEST Way To Kill All AUTOMATONS - Helldivers 2

Hello, welcome back to a new video. So

today I want to show you how to defeat

every single Automaton robot in Helldivers

2. So first of all, I want to get the

Expendable Anti-Tank Missile Launcher,

very useful for taking down robots. For my

stratagems, I have the Tesla Tower, very

good for electrocuting robots, Orbital

Laser and Orbital Rail Cannon Strike, and

also Expendable Anti-Tank Missiles. So the

very basic kind of enemies are these

little robots like this. They can be

one-shot killed. They're usually not very

strong. Most weapons can just one-shot

them like this. And even if they gang up

on you, they're not too much of a problem,

especially this— I mean, this rocket guy

can be a bit of a problem if you let

him shoot his rockets. But as you can see,

I'm tanking the damage pretty well.

And yeah, they're pretty easy to take

down. They've got some weapons, some have

blades, some have rockets. Most have

little guns, not really much of a problem

there. And then you've got these guys over

here with the mounted— shoulder-mounted

rockets. Now they are kind of troublesome,

as you can see. Usually a grenade will

sort them out like that.

2 grenades, 2 grenades, and they go down

easy. Otherwise, if you don't have any

grenades, then just shoot for their heads.

This part is the weak point. You gotta aim

for the head. When it's alive, the red

eyes will be glowing, so that's its weak

spot. And you also have these guys with

shields. They're kind of annoying because

you really need to blow them up like that.

Even if you shoot them with a rocket on

the shield, it— I think it bounced off the

shield. So not super advisable to aim

directly at the shield. And then you've

also got these walker things. They look

like they're from Star Wars, and they're

not really too much of a problem. You just

shoot the the rider, the pilot in the

back, and that usually one-shots them. So

you can see there's a walker thing behind

that smoke cloud. Shoot it with a rocket

and it'll go straight down easy. No

rockets are bouncing off that thing, it's

not like that shielded guy. You also have

these chainsaw guys. They'll run at you

with chainsaws. Aim for the red parts of

the body and they go down pretty quick.

So the red parts the head, and also the

middle of their torso seems like a weak

point. And they're usually not too

difficult as long as you can deal with

them before they get into your face. If

you got 2 or 3 slashing at you and you

can't get away, then you're pretty much

screwed in most situations. And then

you've got these dropships. There's not

really many things you can do about it. I

mean, the rail cannon does one-shot it

nearly like this. Well, maybe not,

but if they drop off their men, then

you've got to deal with the robots they

just dropped off. Sometimes you can shoot

them before they've dropped their load

off, and then everything that they're

carrying gets destroyed as well. See more

chainsaw guys over there. They can— oh,

I'm out of rockets. They're not really

that difficult, you see, they're pretty

And so am I, but I've got the medic guy,

so he's pretty tough. How am

I still alive? If you just go prone, you

can be pretty screwed, I guess. Anyway,

and then you got these flamers, they're

called Hulks. They got this weak point on

the back, very weak to— I was going

to do a rail cannon, but I pressed the

wrong one again. Put a Tesla tower. Well,

that would kill it as well. Look, if you

drop a sentry onto it and stick it on its

back, it would actually one-shot it. So

this time I'll do orbital laser on

that one over there, and it should fry

it pretty easily.

I think my game's bugged because

I swear I just called down orbital laser

and it dropped the anti-tank missiles

instead. Very weird.

Oh, there's some guys over there. That was

so weird. I swear I input the laser and it

dropped the expendable missiles, and I

swear I down— I dropped the rail cannon

and then it dropped the Tesla instead.

Very weird bug. And I think my team

just kicked me. I don't know about you,

but I'm getting kicked a lot from groups.

For weird reasons, like I didn't resurrect

them fast enough. It's really annoying

actually. I accidentally stuck one of my

own men, one of my own team members, with

the resupply drop, and then it dropped on

him and killed him. Then he got mad and

kicked me. And then another time I got

kicked because I placed an airstrike and

the idiots ran straight into it. So I

don't know what's going on with people

kicking me so quickly all the time. This

game is getting very frustrating. The

orbital laser is pretty good at taking

these ones down as well. I mean, it's

pretty good at taking down anything

basically. Oh crap, I nearly fell off

the cliff. Nearly got me.

And then the chainsaw guys, they die so

quick from the grenades. And the walker

guy, look at that guy down there. But I

look like a stormtrooper as well, which is

funny because they look like Star Wars

things. It's funny, Palworld ripped off

Pokémon, and then it's like Helldivers

ripped off Star Wars and Halo and

Warhammer. It's kind of like Warhammer

40K, isn't it? Oh look, here's my top tip

for taking down Berserkers: shoot it in

the head. Something really weird is

happening. Look, I'm trying to call down

the railgun, I'm putting in the proper

inputs, and it calls down the anti-tank

missile. So if I call down railgun again.

Now it called it down. It called down an

orbital strike by accident.

I think that's why I got kicked before,

because it accidentally— well, it wasn't

my fault, stupid game's bugged. So the

railgun, um, charge it up,

shoot this, uh, one headshot. Did you

see that? One headshot with the railgun

took down that guy. Probably get this guy

Maybe not. How are they climbing

up the cliff? Oh my god,

look at all these guys down there. I can

just one-shot them with the railgun. Oh,

there's a big guy. What happens if I shoot

him with the railgun? Watch this.

Nothing. I don't know if you can actually

kill him. By shooting a little redhead

thing.

It's really hard.

Oh, I can get the back. Oh, I got the

back! I think I killed him.

So shoot him in the back with a railgun

usually does the trick. Oh my god, how am

I still alive?

Oh, I didn't get extracted. I was too busy

dying. I also highly recommend you get the

energy shield backpack for Automatons

because nearly all of them shoot guns,

lasers, rockets will be deflected by the

shield. Terminids, most of them are melee

things, so you don't really need energy

shield, but for Automatons, the energy

shield really is very useful. Oh, look at

this. Tank is coming, but I accidentally

used my rail cannon strike because the

game's bugged. And that

didn't hit. This game is so glitched. Oh

my god. I tried calling down the railgun

and it called down my rail cannon instead.

Nope, shooting that in the red bit.

Does— oh, it does! What? I just headshot

it with the railgun. I don't know

if it took 2 shots because I missed the

first one, or if it took 2 shots because

it's strong. Damn, the railgun's good.

Look at this, I didn't even need to get a

headshot and it just one-shot that thing.

I want to show you how to kill the

Automaton, but my Maybe there's a way to

kill it without an orbital strike. Oh

look, there's a tank. See if I can get my

orbital rail cannon.

I think I got it, it didn't bug this time.

So I think that one-shot it, the rail

cannon. So you want to easily one-shot the

tank, just get the rail cannon. Easy.

Oh my God, look at all these walkers that

just dropped. I could have shot them all

in the back if I didn't miss everything.

And another tank. Just spam grenades, I

guess. And then maybe orbital

laser, wipe them all out easily.

I wonder if we can rail cannon— I mean

railgun the tank. Oh, look at the laser.

Destroying that tank. Oh my God,

oh my God, I'm gonna die.

So yeah, that's basically how you kill

every Automaton. Just use the rail cannon,

orbital laser, railgun's pretty good. Aim

for the head, the glowing red spot.

Pretty basic. I don't know why you'd need

a guide, but there's loads of guides on

how to kill Automatons.
