Beginner Leveling Terminid Build: An introduction to Democracy

Congratulations on making it through your Helldiver training, Super Earth is glad to have you! This well-balanced loadout covers all the bases when it comes to Terminids and is great for leveling up. The AR-23 Liberator is your standard issue Assault Rifle that is a great starting weapon with light armor penetrating capabilities.

Core Stratagems

Recoilless Rifle
Eagle Napalm Airstrike
Recoilless Rifle

Explosive Companion for heavier enemies:

  • Brood Commanders and Chargers will die to 1 headshot
  • Bile Titans can be taken out in 2 headshots
  • Shrieker Nests and Spore Towers require two shots
  • Takes out Bug Holes in 1 shot but it is recommended to save ammo for the tougher targets listed above
  • Backpack holds 5 additional shots for a total of 6 shots when called in
  • Ammo Boxes restore 1 rocket while Resupply boxes restore 3
Eagle Napalm Airstrike
  • Drops explosive and incendiary shells in a straight line perpendicular to the direction it was thrown
  • Unable to destroy structures so bringing another stratagem with this capability is highly recommended

Recommended Stratagems

Gatling Sentry
Eagle Cluster Bomb
Orbital Airburst Strike
Gatling Sentry
  • Recommended to place down before pushing into Bug Nests or during swarms
  • Great cover for smaller enemies while you focus larger enemies with other stratagems
  • High DPS
  • Fast locking and engagement
  • Beware of friendly fire
Eagle Cluster Bomb
  • Effective against small and medium targets
  • Low chance to destroy Bug Holes
Orbital Airburst Strike
  • Pro Tip: Throw one of these down on top of a bug breach as soon as you see it pop, it will essentially squash it
  • Relatively short cooldown (2 minutes)
  • Effective against small and medium targets
  • Great for Destroying Broadcast Towers
