As Helldivers 2 gears up to bring back an old threat, veterans of the original shooter come together to train newer recruits on how to squash them: "It is our duty"
This can only go badly

Veteran Helldivers players are joining forces to brace relatively new 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Helldivers 2 grunts for the imminent return of the Impaler.
Earlier this week, Helldivers 2's huge Escalation of Freedom 🌳update was announced. Set to launch on August 6, it's effectively a massive free update introducing new enemies, mission types, difficulty levels, and more. One of those new enemy types is actually a returning one, called the Impaler -💟 a series of huge tentacles that jut up♔ from the ground and block the path of any unlucky Helldivers.
This has got some Helldivers veterans, who played the original Arrowღhead shooter back in 2015, attempting to prepare newcomers on how to deal with the encroaching threat. That's what the Reddit post below posits - that it's their "duty to train the youꦚngbloods on how to fight" the Impaler, and not leave them out to get massacred.

In the Reddit post below, a fellow Helldivers 2 newcomer wonders whether there are an𝓡y other bugs accompanying the new Impaler. "If it's like the ori☂ginal game, when the tentacles are deployed, its head will be vulnerable," a veteran player responds, instructing the grunt on how exactly to safely take down the new enemy. Well, maybe safety isn't entirely guaranteed.

The post below is a super-helpful walkthrough on how to kill an Impaler. The veteran writes that players "must prioritize on killing them first when spotted," and that "their main attack is the tentacles which will pop up under the ground." The player recommends "either quickly running away of its range of attack or use heavy damage weap♛ons and support weapon to clear them out."

Meanwhile, there are other veterans that are simply looking forward to going toe-to-toe with the Impaler again after years away. "A graph chart can not tell you how much I been wanting this Terminid added into the game just to see the community scream in frustration about them on Reddit. I cant wait for these bast🌌ards to be released," the player writes. Thanks, newbies are crying.
