PSA For Dealing with Illuminate

[Drimacus]

Hello fellow Helldiver.
Here is what you should carry when going to fight them as for now.

MG43: Kill overseers fast. Kill flying overseers faster, pops bubble and will kill the harvester just down below the eye not in the eye.

SMG-32 Reprimand: Penetrates overseers armor like butter, 1 shot to the head is kill. Not recommended for anything else.

Senator: Good with the headshots.

Jump pack: Avoid voteless and get high ground, grants you fast mobility.

Incendiary grenades or just nades.

120mm Artillery is your friend to blow up ships/camps/whatever secondary objective with shield related issues.

Armor: Recommend medium armor, medic armor suits this current situation.

Good luck

Recoilless is still the king when it comes to destroying their dropships, that is until you see the rocket going straight trough them because it's hitbox is crap.

I thought it was just me!

A lot of jank from them rushing the release I guess. There's a scenario that causes a crash when fighting them. Unsure what exactly but it was simultaneous for everyone.

Grenade launcher saves lives. :D

I'm finding that a lot deals with them. At least the 4 basic enemies they have out right now. Even basic liberator or other light penetration works because overseers don't have much armor, and voteless have none.
