Yea I have died more than I'd like to admit to that damn tower
I (level 25) had to tell a teammate (level 53) who died twice too a tesla tower (once while distracted by bots, and once trying to get his stuff) to go prone while near the tower.
It is a VERY situational stratagem that I have only used once or twice in about 160 hours of in mission playtime.
It can function well for a player who likes to go solo against the bugs. It attracts them from incredible distsnces and it's tankiness lets it take on multiple patrols of regular bugs with minimal effort.
But the issue lies in armor passives locked behind a premium warbond. Chargers, Titans, Hulks, Tanks, Striders(bigguns) all being too resilient and able to just walk it down.
Actually. This brings me to a problem inherent with ALL sentry style stratagems, and that is how much our enemies hate them once they are noticed.
I've had a rocket devastator repeatedly choose to launch salvos over my head at a ln Autocannon sentry dozens of meters away while i'm actively reloading infront of his face.
But that isn't the issue, the issue lies with sentries, our powerful tools, being hard targeted by swarms and or the targets that we need them to take down with us seemingly unable to pull aggro.
Titans and Chargers develop one track minds and will run at a Missile sentry to kill it once it shoots them, most often before it can actually put out enough damage to down them even in it's currently improved state.
I usually fire at it to destroy it the second I see it
RELEASE THE ODSTS
They say we get the best weaponry pfffff than why fire damage feels like microwave damage
Did he say that Super Earth gives us the best weapons in the galaxy. Come on, man, that is why we lost most of ur fighting force.
Just go prone and you have a very effective bug zapper which also easily takes out Shriekers
Its only effective on choke points which kinda doesn't happen often enough to Warrant using
I convinced my gf to play with me and on her first mission she said “why do these guns suck ass” 😂
Love the game btw not complaining just thought it was funny
An upgrade to our armour for this would be good like adding a thin rubber layer to negate 10% of electrical damage so its not an insta kill
"Best" that was a funny word 😂😂😂
Use it in defensive missions, one tower can clog up an entire bot drop/bug breach
Chargers… always the chargers. Itd be cool if it could lower itself into the ground for two or three charges so it can just be useful
This pops up the day after I play the “shock therapy” build. What are the odds?
(Arc thrower, Tesla, EMS mortar, EMS strike, blitzer. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR SERIOUS USE.)
it's useless😢
If you hate the tesla tower, entirely a skill issue and nothing more.
The video itself shows the solution for Helldivers not using the Conduit armours…
Lie down and crawl
It doesn't zap you when you're down low
It's good for bugs the average player are pretty dumb when it comes to avoiding it just make sure u ping it so your team knows its there and as a team member listen to pings use em too if your not in chat
It would be a decent pick against the bugs if the Chargers didn't instantly delete it.
Seriously I swear these things go out of their way to go after any turret
If the Tesla Tower emitted a small EMS field around itself that can stop chargers, it would be a lot better for sure xD
Helldivers who run to the Tesla tower after it is placed are bugs/bots in disguise.
who are trying to infiltrate The Helldivers.-Ministry of Truth
So wait, if it can chain to units
Attach it to the top of a mech
Get in the mech
Walk around with it
It's good aslong as you domt charge the tesla tower without cutting edge armor
The think is very strong but hard to use. And most helldivers don’t look at their surroundings that’s why many run into it and die. But if used the right way the Tesla tower whips out multiple swarms of bugs as long as no chargers or bigger bugs are nearby.
I feel like most people know how it works, it’s just that actually going prone doesn’t prevent you from getting hit
Have been chain zapped by this thing more often by bugs walking near it or by other squadmates 😂 it’s fun BUT
Massive pain in the arse to use
There are not useless stratagems or weapons, just Helldivers who should read their Helldiving Field Manual more usually 🧐
If you die to a tesla tower, you're probably a bug?
If placed correctly, you can essentially create kill zones throughout the entire map unless a bile titan or charger hits it. Makes roaming patrols a nonissue most of the time
it would be good if there weren't so many brain dead players
Tesla towers should really just be used in large quantities in hot spots where the helldivers cant intervene yet to keep the ennemy at bay.
Useless
The most effective stratagem for area controll against the bugs! Just beware where you drop it!
"Tesla suit ready" quote from tesla trooper
1. laying low to the ground prevents it from targeting you
2. a big cloud of electricity will appear at the top of the tower when it is targeting you (about 2 -3 seconds before attacking), move away or dive to avoid being fried by it
I hate the tesla tower
The Tesla tower is honestly my favorite stratagem but I only bring it for the defense mission and the eradication. For bugs only cause bots shoot it from afar don't get zapped
It's just like everything else it all depends on the diver using this equipment. Some are just not qualified
I used to play with ppl that got upset anytime I brought out the Tesla tower even though I never had friendly fire hits with it. The same people would all run landmines putting them in the center of objects or our only escape route. The tesla tower always popped off against the bugs.
For Super Girth and Democracy ✊
I like tesla its funny and effective
