In this part of the video, five crucial tips are provided to help players effectively combat the automatons in Hell Divers 2, emphasizing the importance of speed and mobility. Unlike terminates that spawn from the ground, automatons arrive via drop ships with no upper limit, making holding positions a poor strategy. Players are encouraged to rapidly advance towards objectives and then move away to avoid being overrun. Weapons with strong armor-piercing capabilities, such as the SG 225 breaker shotgun, auto cannon, rail guns, and recoiless rifle, are recommended for their effectiveness against the heavily armored automatons, including Striders and Hulk units. Additionally, targeting automatons’ weak points from behind, such as the exposed pilot on The Strider or the red vent on the Hulk, is advised. Positioning and squad distribution play a crucial role in successfully exposing these weak points. The squad should force the robots to pick a directional target, focusing on dodging and cover, allowing the rest of the team to attack from the rear.
