How I cleared MAX DIFFICULTY in Helldivers 2... SOLO

I'm going to show you solo Helldive

difficulty on Helldivers 2. First of all,

just make sure matchmaking is set to

private, friends only. Not that I have any

friends. And then I'll look for a mission

that we can do solo. Hmm, which one should

I choose? Okay, so first of all, we land.

You want to get out your stratagems

quickly. Thankfully, I've memorized

basically most of these stratagems so I

can get them out Really quick,

put a Gatling gun. Hmm,

maybe, maybe— oh,

I thought I could put it there. I guess

not. Oh, it will go over there. That's

what I was supposed to do. And I'll put

this EMS over here. Now we just have to go

and hide whilst sentries do the work and

try and pick off a few so I can help out

the sentries. Not really much else I can

do. I could drop a resupply just for

later, because I'll need to spam some

grenades. And then just stay safe.

We've got 5 lives. Shouldn't have to use

any of them. Things will get very hairy,

because eventually the sentries will run

out. And then the bots will start coming

for us. Gotta kill 170— 179.

Excuse me for the hiccup.

Okay, so I've got another 170 to go.

Pick these ones off just like a delicious

scab, ready for the ripe—

I mean, ripe for the picking.

You can also shoot them before they've

landed. If they're the small— oh, these

ones are weak against grenades. Just spam

a bunch of grenades at them. Why did I

only get 3 grenades when my maximum

loadout is 4? Oh, that big guy's coming.

I didn't bring any strikes, orbital

strikes, to take him out, so I'm gonna be

kind of screwed. Maybe I should have

brought at least a rail cannon thing just

in case. Oh crap,

that's okay, we got 4 more lives.

If I land directly on it— oh,

didn't do enough damage though. Oh, I

thought— oh, I got it, I got it! Did you

see those skills? Okay, we've got sentries

coming back online in 40 to 50 seconds.

Just gotta hold out.

Just be careful here. This is the riskiest

bit when you've got no sentries. Oh, you

got one more mortar thing. What's that,

the normal mortar?

Some guys. I can take those guys out

maybe. Yeah, 3. Just got those guys.

The trouble is when the big hulks start

coming for you. Wow, I've already killed

90 by myself. Got sentries coming back

online. Mortar sentry, go get that one

there, nice and safe behind this little

rock. Rocket sentry

needs line of sight, so we'll put it over

here for those coming down that little

alleyway walkway. Gatling gun sentry can

go Up

here. Oh, oh, the rocket launcher guy

nearly got me. Get out the pistol.

God, this is easy. Am I actually on

Helldive difficulty? Yeah, level 9. I

thought this wasn't Helldive difficulty

for a moment. We got EMS, get that down

quick. That will stun the enemies. It's a

little nice defensive— mortars tucked away

safe. The rocket's got— oh, the rocket

just got blown up. Oh crap, this thing's

gonna wipe out all my mortars.

If I can reach the objective before— he's

gonna go for all the mortars. Oh no.

Oh, my mortar survived! Oh, maybe not. I

was gonna say my mortar survived. Oh, it

did survive. I've only got to kill another

50. I could do a resupply

maybe. No, I saved that in case I need it

to drop on a Hulk.

We have to wait another minute for more

That's a Hulk there. Kill another

25. I need some weak

small guys. I think there was

some weak guys down here.

That's 2. Oops,

they're not that weak if they got the

rocket launcher. Where's my pistol?

How did none of those hit?

Oh, I had one bullet left in the chamber.

Just run over here. Okay, now you just

have to be sneaky and try and break line

of sight because there's not much I can

do. I could drop a resupply on that Hulk.

Did I get it? I don't think— no, gonna

have to deal with these chainsaw guys.

Looking pretty bad amount of ammo. Oh, it

nearly hit it. I need to kill 4— no,

6 more.

And there's— oh, there's little guys

coming. I can't get my supplies.

I can get to the supplies. Nope.

Okay, I'll just drop Rocket sentry is

coming back online.

Just drop directly on the tank. I don't

know if that was a good idea.

I can just finish off— no, I thought it'd

be safe. What if I drop,

drop the turret on top

of the tank?

Oh my God, where are the

turrets? If I use the tank as cover,

they're gonna blow up their own tank.

Killed by one guy? You must be joking.

We've got to kill 2 more. I'll just land

directly on the tank. Oh my God.

I think the tank counts as like 10. Now

we'll wait for the— whoa, my god, look at

the cartwheels! Now we'll wait for the

evac. He just cartwheeled like 20 times.

Oh, the reinf— I mean, the evac's here.

I've only got 1 reinforcement left. Oh

crap.

It doesn't really matter, I've already won

because I've already completed the

objective. Being able to evac is just like

a bonus. Oh, come on,

just get,

get on the ship, get on the ship.

Oh my god, yes! And that is

how you solo Helldive difficulty on

Helldivers 2. See how many points I got

for that. They should give

you more points if you do it solo. But I

think you get more points by doing it in a

team because you extract more Helldivers,

so you get more bonus extraction points.

It took me like 7-8 minutes though. This

usually takes 2 minutes with a group.

No, you get way more XP if you do it in a

group. That's kind of lame.
