HELLDIVERS 2 (2026) Autocannon build (vs rupture strain, colony)

(10 difficulty) Core of this build is: Armor is DP-8 Mountain-Scaled - Increases reload speed of primary weapons by 30%. Increases ammo capacity of all weapons by 20%. Does not affect weapon backpacks. Main is MA5C Assault Rifle - on rupture strain use any good damage weapon with MEDIUM penetration, on other bugs type you can use whatever you want(assault rifles, shotguns with hight fire rate will be good option). Secondary P-34 Breacher (It works with the passive trait from armor; if one shot from the pistol doesn’t destroy a heavy target, you can save a second bullet by finishing off the target with penetrating rounds from the autocannon, which makes the pistol perhaps the best option when combined with the autocannon.). Throwable G/40-K Melta Mine (Good for killing chargers and sealing titan burrows. If the charger has gone underground, either smoke it out with a single shot from an autocannon, or shoot at the mine when it’s crawling under it. (optional; any anti‑tank weapons will do- G-60 Anti-Tank Seeker, G-48 Giga Grenade) However, the mines come in a set of four, which is more preferable. MD-8 Gas Mines - crowd control and combo dps with fire fields from grenades and help keeping distance(can replace by Orbital Gas Strike, which works in tandem with orbital napalm, unlike mines) AC-8 Autocannon - explosive rounds with medium penetration are used against crowds, objects, and flying targets. Penetrating rounds effectively stop chargers and kill them quite well, or finish off a titan by targeting the head. It’s quite quick to finish off a still‑living target after using the P‑34 Breacher — two or three rounds are enough. This is an extremely convenient tool for sealing beetle burrows from any distance, which eliminates the need to worry about grenades in the primary or secondary weapon slot. Orbital Napalm Barrage vs bug breach, Eagle Strafing Run crowd control and big targets, big bleeding targets and hit and run tactics)
