Helldive and Super Helldive difficulty require the strategic use of cooldowns for essential Stratagems, making it crucial to utilize every piece of your loadout.
The GP-31 Grenade Pistol is perfect for sealing bug holes, freeing up your Stratagems for tougher enemies like the Bile Titan or Impaler.
The Orbital Napalm Barrage, Eagle Cluster Bomb, and Orbital Laser are all effective at wiping out swarms of weaker enemies. Stun Grenades and the Railgun are ideal for dispatching Chargers with precision.
The Breaker Incendiary released with the Steeled Veterans Warbond, it is the most effective anti-Terminid primary weapon of any category.
A single shot will ignite and kill a Shrieker.
Utilizing the burning damage can make it extremely ammo efficient, but its high rate off fire and capacity does allow you to magdump and clear out entire swarms when needed.

The Eagle 500KG Bomb is the most powerful explosive Stratagem, second only to the Hellbomb and Mini-Nuke.
It can obliterate nearly any enemy in a single hit, with the exception of Factory Striders, which will still sustain heavy damage.
With its newly enhanced blast radius, the 500KG Bomb is now one of the most capable Stratagems available.
Recommended Stratagems
Cost: 10,000, Unlocked at Level 15.
The Orbital Laser is an incredibly powerful stratagem, though you’re only allowed 3 uses per game, and it is on a significant cooldown.
It will effortlessly slice through a field of enemies. It’s a “Throw and forget” kind of stratagem, as the targeting is handled automatically as the laser travels enemy-to-enemy. It’s capable of taking out bug holes and fabricators, as well as heavies such as the Titan, Hulk and Impaler.
Cost: 10,000, Unlocked at Level 18.
The Orbital Napalm Barrage is the ultimate area denial Stratagem, annihilating a large zone and leaving behind persistent flames that incinerate any enemies entering the area.
It’s highly dangerous and should never be deployed near areas where you or your team intend to stand in or walk through in the near future.
Cost: 4,000, Unlocked at Level 3.
The Eagle Cluster Bomb is a highly effective Stratagem that blankets a wide area with dozens of mini explosives, making it ideal for eliminating swarms of lightly and medium-armored enemies.
There’s a slight chance that some of the larger submunitions may enter bug holes or fabricator vents and close them, but it’s not a guarantee, so never rely on it.
