Kill hunters in Helldivers 2 – This is how you find them
This is how you find the hunters: The hunters in Helldivers 2 can only be found in the yellow sectors of the Terminids. To do this, use the world map and select an operation on a planet infested with Terminids.
Once you’ve landed, all you have to do is look for Terminid or Stalker buildings. They mostly crawl out of their holes to slow you down with their tongues. A good way to eliminate many hunters in one fell swoop is with the missions “Take out the swarm of deadlines”. A variety of insects spawn in this mission, including hunters.
This is what the hunters look like in Helldivers 2:
Hunters are not armored, so you can easily kill them with any weapon you like. However, it is advisable to take a fully automatic shotgun like the SG-225-Breaker or an SMG like the SMG-37-Defender. Both weapons can quickly destroy many enemies, including the agile hunters.
You should note the following: Keep an eye on the hunters, especially on higher difficulty levels. Their tongues slow you down in combat, which could lead to a deadly dilemma, especially when escaping.
So if you are chased by the hunters, be sure to switch them off, otherwise they will catch up when your stamina is used up and mean certain death.
That was the most important information about the hunters. Which terminids do you find most annoying? Let us find out in the comments!
