Helldivers 2

If asked why this game has such hype, it certainly cannot be separated from the influence of the current climate in the gaming industry. It could be said that the current trend in the shooter genre revolves around the third-person shooter (TPS) perspective.

This emerged along with the explosion of battle royale games which are currently very easy to find, such as PUBG, CoD, Battlefield, even Free Fire. And this picture can be seen clearly by Arrowhead as the developer of Helldivers 2.

What's even more amazing is that they don't just use this trend information as industry mapping. "Recklessly" they dared to "swerve" and adopt this genre for the sequel to their most successful franchise.

You could say this is a gamble that is not simple. If the product produced does not meet the industry's strict standards and meet the expectations of the fanbase and mainstream gamers, their job is finished.

However, Arrowhead was able to prove that their quality as a developer was not limited. Even though it's made by an indie studio, Helldivers 2 truly comes as a masterpiece.

What are Hunters?

So now let's get straight into the main discussion, namely Hunters Helldivers 2. For those who don't understand, Hunters are one of the fierce mobs in this game universe.

Hunters belong to the Terminids faction: vicious insects who are the main opponents of the Helldivers. As an alien insect that lives in outer space, of course the appearance will be very different from the image of insects in the real world.

When compared to other mobs in the game, Hunters themselves are relatively small in size. Meanwhile, its shape looks like arthropod animals in general.

With a book-shaped stomach, Hunters uniquely have wings that actually look like fish fins. It is equipped with four legs and two arms that resemble the scythes of a praying mantis.

The color itself is predominantly white, with flesh brown accents on some parts of the organs. This description makes the appearance of this insect even more terrifying.

Hunters are basic mobs for medium and above difficulty levels. As for the difficulty below, there are Terminids with almost the same shape called Warriors.

Many say that the appearance of Terminids is very inspired by the Starship Troopers film franchise which was released in 1997. The theme is also similar: a space military adventure with a mission to eradicate alien insects.

Abilities and How to Eradicate Hunters Helldivers 2

As a basic mob, the abilities of Hunters themselves are minimal. He only relies on "as is" speed in attacking, with attack patterns that are easy to understand.

Without armor or boosters, one attack can remove a quarter of a blood bar. The only challenge these mobs can cause is that they come in hordes.

Therefore, there is no need for special weapons to defeat them. Any weapon can be used to eradicate these insects.

However, if you want to be more effective, just use an explosive with an area capacity or a projectile with high damage per second (DPS), then these mobs can be easily defeated.
