Helldivers
Heavy Amor appreciation post.
Discussion
I love how much of an icon this one guy has become, and most people don't even know his name or even TITLE because most people don't need to everyone just saw him and went "why the hell is this guy the villain? I wanna play as him!"
No idea who this guy is, pls enlighten me
He’s a knight who appears in the trailer for a High Isle DLC of Elder Scrolls Online (a somewhat popular MMO), he’s the villain in the clip, but he beats the crap out of three different heroes in a very cool way. Would recommend watching the video, look up “High Isle Launch Cinematic”.
It's also the fact that HE FUCKING PARRIES MAGIC which makes him so cool
Chad fighter vs. Pansy magic elves and their nord pet.
This is the video that does him justice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeahzYGuIKY
Here I thought that was one of the cinematics from Dark Souls 3..
Don't forget him being one of the best depictions of the use of a greatsword in fiction, like every inch from point-to-pommel of that weapon is a tool in his hands-- he parried that spell with the secondary guard.
Whelp, that was probably the best three minutes of the day, may as well go back to sleep
you have to appreciate how the three main characters get their ass beat then decide "whelp might as well drop a fucking church on him" and that doesnt even take him out.
john highisle from the hit MMORPG expansion the elder scrolls online: high isle
Local knight bodies three hero characters by just being competent at being a knight, to the point where everyone who watches the trailer agrees he was the star of it.
I’ll likey never play ESO but the trailers for it are always great. My one problem is. Is that guy supposed to be a Breton? Because he’s too large.
Hes actually only half Breton, Imperial on the other side
Please delete this. I can only be so democratically stiff without a C-01 permit.
I’ve got plenty if you want one.
Thank liberty! Much appreciated brother! O7
I’ve just been printing them, but don’t tell the ministry of prosperity, they’ll get pissed.
No thanks diver don't em when I got one of these
You only need C-01 permits for acts that could result in a child
I mean the “taktical unit shield” could be broken or have a hole in it and that means that the action Could in fact result in a child
There's no such thing as too democratically stiff. I go to battle with raging boner every time from the sheer love for managed democracy.
Helps with blood loss too
DW, the guys gotchu
"Olied up Buffdivers in your area"
So buff that their armor is barely holding on
I love this thread
Heavy armour looks the best. I just can’t deal with moving like a brick across the map
Yeah the best heavy armors are in the medium category lol.
Either the default armor with Extra Padding, or the Enforcer armor with 129 armor rating and Fortified. None of the passives of the true heavy armors are worth the speed loss. I can just use the default armor and go without extra stims or lower recoil or whatever, or use Enforcer and suffer only a minor speed penalty, but still be pretty much as tanky, and I even get Fortified too.
get a fortified heavy armour, a supply pack, and an eruptor, and just rocket jump across the fields like democracies most lead poisoned soldier
This is why it's a perfect pair with the FRV.
Try Dead Sprint booster, pair it with Vitality to significantly reduce the health cost. Vitality and heavy armour gives you a lot more effective health so using some of it for sprinting isn't as punishing. Add a supply pack for near infinite sprint. That's the only thing that makes it bearable for me.
I'd wear heavier armors if I didn't have to pick up all the samples that everyone else ignores. I think I've memorized all their locations and amounts on Terminid Super Helldiver Missions.
Heavy armor is the best for samples if you bring a supply pack! You can run into areas to grab lone samples with reckless abandon and are a lot less likely to get ganked while roaming alone with the extra protection. Just use stims if you need to run, your supply pack carries eight for a reason and they have absolutely no addictive properties.
And don't forget the heavy med-kit armor set to complete the combo!
Aaand the experimental infusion which turns you into a walking tank
oh yeah
I knew what music was playing before I turned up the volume
What's the name of the song?
Halogen - U Got That
I have lost a total of one limb since the terminid were introduced with the heavy-servo
In addition to the right arm you would have already lost?
touché. but the deed endures.
The flesh is weak but deeds endure!
(I would use the iron hands but i’m too lazy to look through my images)
Tis but a scratch!
THEY CANNOT STOP DEMOCRACY IF THEY CANNOT STOP ME
Devastator armour should grant an extra 15 armour just because it's so god damn THICC
I run heavy and extra padding too much to the point that I find it difficult to run light armor now because im used to just tanking stuff that you can't in light
Marshmellow man :D
We love marshmallow armor here
Don't gotta tank hits if you never get hit.
Zoom zoom ~
Dare my boy Dread not be mentioned!?
If there's one thing I regret, it's not having more heavy armor yet.
Salamander, my beloved.
Democracy’s elite folks
Not even showing the medic armor
We are SO underrepresented
It’s the color choice 😅
The color palette can be dope, they just need to utilize it better lol
For fucking real! I cannot play without my Heavy Medic armor and having enough excessively addictive non addictive stims
The video that made me want Helldivers 2 was of a heavy armored Helldiver diving in front of his light comrade to catch a cannon round for them.
HEAVY MAINS RISE UP!!!
Its always about the fashion
Imma medium armor enjoyer but damn it's so good to tank devastator shots with heavy armor.
I just don’t see the point of heavy armor over the standard extra padding medium armor.
Still believe the armor you start in is the best in the game.
I can’t step on 2 landlines without stimming in medium extra padded. That’s why I wear Kodiak
Personally, i prefer drip over stats. I haven't taken off Jaguar armor since its release, it just looks so badass.
there's only one thing that triggers my ocd, the regular armor parts on the jaguar are scuffed, but usually helmets are not. Also ripped pants aaaarghh
It does yes. I’m loving that one on illuminates when I slice through the voteless with my sword
its also pretty damn good with a HMG too :D
I'm going to have to use that helmet with Jaguar from now on. I use Jaguar A LOT because I'm so often using things like Eruptor and/or machine guns.
That's where Fortified Commando comes in. Heavy AND extra padding. 200 armour is big boi mode.
Try the Enforcer armor too.
129 armor rating and Fortified.
IIRC the math works out that it's, like, 99% the same as having 150 armor rating, and the speed loss you suffer is significantly less than the 150s. Plus with Fortified you just shrug off explosions and have lower recoil.
It's definitely one of the best armors against Automatons in the game.
Don't sleep on the tankiness of the Bloodhound or Doubt Killer (depending on if you want your helldrip to be in Red or Black). 125 armor rating and a few other extra benefits.
Fortified heavy armor is so strong. The 150 armor plus 50% explosive dmg resistance makes you a beast. Explosive damage is the second most common damage type in the game afaik. So it does a lot.
Plus the 30% recoil reduction is very nice.
Heavy armour means you get a perk along with the tankyness. More firepower, more everything
I wanna be heavy, AND have 6 experimental stims so I can never die. Alternatively 8 pyro grenades, or maybe inflammable for nonstop double-edging
Fortified commandos rise up!
Twigsnapper body with Obedient helm🔥
Guerrilla Gorilla my beloved
Nothing beats marching through an automaton warzone in fortified commando armor with a heavy machine gun and a ballistic shield
Game needs to give me more Super Heavy Armor (Extra Padding) designs. Love the Pillsbury Dough boy Armor.
guerilla gorilla, it has engineering kit passive so extra throwables and less recoil
Guerilla Gorilla, an HMG, the supply pack, and some G-12 grenades is a damn good time.
Gorila
Where is my grenadier? 😭
It seems that in your rage... You killed him
Certified thiccboi moment
This is the way
DAMN BOY! DAMN!!! HE THICK!!!!
Me and all my fellow knights love the cinderblock armor! FOR THE HIGH KING FOR FORT JUSTICE!!!!
If I could upvote a hundred thousand times, I would.
Rise up, my fellow heavy armored brethren.
Do I love the way it looks? Damn right I do!
Will I ever not wear light armor? I will die on the light armor hill
We still need a Democracy Protects heavy armor. And light armor, actually.
Democracy protects, but only if you are wearing medium armour.
CW-22 Kodiak my beloved
You will pry it off my cold dead (not from explosions) corpse
Std snow gear for me.
my favourite is the demoman green heavy armor.
Trait: HEAVIER ARMOR
If there was an Unflinching Heavy armor, I'd so go fo it
BulkDiver reporting
Ah now I have to equip heavy armor then drop with a supply pack and heavy machine gun 😩
i love how the heavy armor littrely shows skin like bros biceps are the ARMOR
Absolutely love the extra padded 200 armor boy (I'm shit at names). Feels like I'm going into disarm bombs.
Cinderblock gang, where you at
Me when the Light armors complain about enemies hitting too hard while I tank rockets to the teeth like I eat them for breakfast:
Get out of here, Skinny!
This is the only way for me. I just can’t stand being so slow. Light armor or bust.
hell yea, they're fucking awesome.
Unfortunately, they're much too slow for me, so I always stick with the light armor.
Well, we have to slow some appreciation cuz AH sure won't. I always run that shit regardless
Gosh I love the armor so much, there's a lot of style and personality in a lot of them that I really like. I have several favorites already, particularly the helmets.
I'm not sure how exactly to get any of them, but come the end of August I'm going to be grinding non-stop to get them.
CM-17 SUPREMACY!!
Lightly armored means being lightly protected, smart.
Heavy armor best armor
Everyone aura farming: 🔥🔥
G-66 Lawmaker: 😐
as a lawmaker main this brought me an indescribable amount of joy
I always love hearing my friends crumbling from the slightest terminid sneeze, while I'm chilling through an absolute onslaught of attacks.
I can never succeed in having a heavy squad with Vitality booster, Stamina, Infusion AND Deadsprint. Now that's a dangerous team.
Swap infusion for Northern Leg would great too
Heavy armors are the goat
Peak.
Democracy overload
Hell yeah
God I fucking love this community
I rock Salamander for Bugs, Devastator for Bots, and Cinderblock for Squids. Gotta be buff to spread democracy.
I absolutely love heavy armor! I'll often run it with extra stamina and faster recovery with a jetpack for mobility reasons

The undemocratic divers are real silent right now.
My friends: "I play with light or medium armor because of the running speed and stamina."
Me choosing between my heavy armors:
Heavy Armour only baby.
I love the other tiers and see their merit but heavy will always be my favourite to spread democracy with!
Just a bunch of thick boys hanging out
Almost exclusively run heavy armor here - just feels so good, looks so good. I love being the tank for the team w/ heavy armor & the ballistic shield.
Used heavy armour since the beginning. Once, I used to alternate with light scout armour. Now...I can never go back. Heavy has me in its grip, and I'd never want it any other way
Nothing feels better than heavy peak-physique armor with the JAR-5 Dominator. My favorite loadout regardless of faction, I love my bolter
Never catch me without my "Dixie Cup" CE-64 Grenadier
As a dedicated fire trooper, the salamander is my go to. But that swipe effect hurt my eyes friendo.
Heavy armor, my beloved
Ahhhh my precious Kodiak armor. What a time to be alive.
Why am I wet?
i got goosebumps while watching this
I only run heavy armor... go between the roadblock one and bearer of the standard.
I love heavy armors
Even without sound I immediately knew what song was used
I absolutely love heavy armour, especially on bots. One of the main reasons I like it so much is the fact they always look so cool. The roadblock armour, devastator and dynamo are some of my favourite in the game (plus the passives are good).
Chonky
Heavies
ITS DRIP OR DROWN AND BROTHER
DEMOCRACY CAN'T SWIM
One day the cowboy armor will get their hat
My go to load out is heavy armor with extra mags and the extra sprint stim for my chunky ass to continue running
I'm armorsexual
I cant wait to become a meatball in August
I wear heavy on all fronts, if you constantly smash stims you can keep up with the bantam divers.
heavy armor should have 200 armor base tbh
And in all that flexing you ran out of stamina 3 times.
gets 1 shot by a bug in the head
No that's LIGHT armor, we're the heavy armors
It is true though. You feel like a total tank, capable of tanking a Godzilla face to face. Yet you also move like a tank on life support in terms of speed.
Hard cut to Helldiver running at 2 mph and out of breath
We may not get there first, but we always get there.
fortified commando appeared too little times, 3/10
Love me FS-05 MARKSMAN. Simple as.
Been working on heavy armor builds, I just need more heavy armors that isn't fortified...
i recommend the siege ready heavy armors. bring the vitality booster and a supply backpack too and you can just keep firing without restraint while surviving hits you would normally die from.
it's honestly great and really REALLY fun
(ps, fortified heavy armor with vitality booster can easily survive sitting in the stingray's strafing run, which allows me to just keep reloading the hmg instead of trying to dive away)
Run the heavy medic armor from the super store and never die even harder than before
FS-11 Executioner main, reporting for duty!
Damn, haven't heard that song in a while
The undemocratic mind cannot comprehend this.

I've been running this armor ever since it came out cuz IT'S SO BADASS
I run it with the red beret vc helm
Same dude. I can't escape the drip like the illuminate cannot escape me
What armor is this??
The bearer of the standard, sometimes in the superstore
SICK
It's available right now in the superstore btw.
Omw because that is peak drip
It's Helldiver (g), sells on the ge for around 500 super creds
Don't worry, I got your joke.

Still great content, this is exactly what this sub was made for
