Primary Weapon – SG-225 Breaker Shotgun For Best S Tier Build in Helldivers 2

SG-225 Breaker Shotgun Helldivers 2 - Best S Tier Build Helldivers 2

First of all let’s look at our primary weapon which is the SG-225 Breaker Shotgun. What you get is a fully automatic shotgun that deals 330 damage and boasts 16 rounds per magazine. It has light armor penetrating traits, which is good for dealing with tanks and spongy enemies.

To unlock the SG-225 Breaker Shotgun, you need to complete the 4th Page of the Helldivers Mobilize! War Bond or Battle Pass. To unlock the SG-225 Breaker Shotgun, you need 25 Medals. But you’ll first have to unlock the previous assortment of goodies and items, which cost 75 medals. All-in-all, you’ll need to spend 90 Medals to unlock the incredibly powerful SG-225 Breaker Shotgun in Helldivers 2.

What makes the SG-225 Breaker Shotgun one of the best weapons in Helldivers 2 is its impeccable penetration, nimble handling, and excellent recoil mitigation, and ridiculous range allowing you to take out enemies from a distance. A great alternative could be the Liberator Penetrator, but for the most part, the SG-225 Breaker gets the job done.

It deals 60 damage per round and has a capacity of 31 and a feeble recoil of just 11, making it perfect for taking out small-fry Terminids at close quarters.

Grenade – G-12 Incendiary Grenade

If you’re looking to roast some bugs, then the G-12 Incendiary Grenade hits a sweet spot in Helldivers 2. In addition, it deals some well-needed passive damage to wipe out any enemies that come into its blast radius.

Armor – B-08 Light Gunner Armor

B-08 Light Gunner Armor Helldivers 2 - Best S Tier Build Helldivers 2

Without a doubt, Light Armor is the way to go in Helldivers 2, and for this S Tier Helldivers 2 build, we’re going with the B-08 Light Gunner Armor. It gives you a speed of 543 and a Stamina Regen of 121.

The Armor Passive allows you to exploit a better armor rating. To be fair, the Armor Ratings in Helldivers 2 are currently incorrect, but in a good way. This means that the Light Armor offers the same amount of protection and durability as that of the Heavy Armor in Helldivers 2. 

But the developers are investigating the issue and a future patch might nerf Light Armor, so make the most of this S Tier Build while you can. The boost in movement speed, agility, and the ease of dolphin diving and dodging enemy chargers and Bile Titans can change the pace of the game.

The A/M 12 Mortar Sentry Stratagem allows you to take out enemies from a far away distance and wipes out enemy hordes, owing to its incredible splash damage. Just make sure to set it up in a safe spot, particularly in the high ground, and prevent any enemies from getting too close to it.

Once unlocked, make sure to equip it when readying up for your next Defensive Helldive.

A/M-23 EMS Mortar Sentry Defense Stratagem For Best S Tier Build in Helldivers 2

AM-23 EMS Mortar Sentry Defense Stratagem

The A/M-23 EMS Mortar Sentry is another Defensive Stratagem in Helldivers 2 that’s incredibly useful. It fires off shots that not only wipe out weaker enemies but stun or slow down tougher enemies that come into contact with its EMS Blast Radius. 

This Defensive Stratagem for the S-Tier Helldivers 2 Build is ideal because it allows you to eliminate and slow down the faster, yet weaker enemies that tend to invade your stronghold, consisting of your Defensive Stratagems. 

At the end of the day, this Defensive Stratagem comes in really handy in higher-level missions where you seriously need to take a breath, strategize and group together as tougher and spongier enemies are immobilized.

But the only downside is friendly fire. The A/M 23 EMS Mortar Sentry goes off in the direction of enemies and if your squad mates are in its blast radius, they may get affected too, so make sure to keep an open line of communication with your squad mates. And if they do die, allow them to deploy and Helldive once again.
