Here is how to use this support weapon Stratagem against the Terminid and Automatons. Helldivers 2: Anti-Material Rifle guide The Anti-Material Rifle is an incredibly useful support weapon in\u00a0Helldivers 2\u00a0that you can pick up early on in the game. Costing\u00a05000 Requisitions and unlockable at level two, this rifle thrives in long-range battles. Use\u00a0first-person mode\u00a0(R3 on PS5 and scroll wheel on PC) to aim in and get the most out of this Stratagem.\u00a0Take your time\u00a0with this weapon and use the entry damage to bring down the largest Terminid or Automaton in the group. Most enemies are unaware of your positioning after taking out one of their own while using this weapon from afar. You can use this time to\u00a0clear a congested area of enemies\u00a0(Terminid or Automaton) before heading into the area to clear an objective.\u00a0The Anti-Material Rifle is best used against full-armor enemies. Examples of these are the Brood Commander and the Berserker. Unlike other support weapons, you can aim directly at the armor to shatter it, leaving the enemy vulnerable to the following attack. You can switch weapons or continue to obliterate with the Anti-Rifle in hand. It shouldn't take more than\u00a0two to three rifle bullets\u00a0to bring down the toughest foes. While aiming at the armor, make sure to\u00a0pinpoint enemy weak spots\u00a0for a fast, clean kill. These are flesh or muscle for Terminid and glowing red marks on the Automaton. This conserves your ammo and quickly takes an enemy out of the fight so you can shift your focus onto the remaining forces. The rifle has a\u00a0clear and straight trajectory\u00a0when in use, letting you aim directly at the part you want the bullet to penetrate. The rifle is best used from afar, but you are not limited by range with this weapon. While it packs a serious punch beyond a\u00a0100 metre radius, it can be utilized close-range as an action-packed shotgun. Simple point it towards the armored enemy and shoot. The Anti-Material rifle can easily take out anything between yourself and your target, so keep that in mind if you want to use it in third-person mode. This also opens the opportunity for\u00a0collaterals\u00a0as the Anti-Material bullets can pierce multiple enemies at once in a single file line.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/HELLDIVERS2_20240216120653.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134077"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2396"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1134077"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134077\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1134198,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134077\/revisions\/1134198"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1134144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1134077"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1134077"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

Here is how to use this support weapon Stratagem against the Terminid and Automatons. Helldivers 2: Anti-Material Rifle guide The Anti-Material Rifle is an incredibly useful support weapon in\u00a0Helldivers 2\u00a0that you can pick up early on in the game. Costing\u00a05000 Requisitions and unlockable at level two, this rifle thrives in long-range battles. Use\u00a0first-person mode\u00a0(R3 on PS5 and scroll wheel on PC) to aim in and get the most out of this Stratagem.\u00a0Take your time\u00a0with this weapon and use the entry damage to bring down the largest Terminid or Automaton in the group. Most enemies are unaware of your positioning after taking out one of their own while using this weapon from afar. You can use this time to\u00a0clear a congested area of enemies\u00a0(Terminid or Automaton) before heading into the area to clear an objective.\u00a0The Anti-Material Rifle is best used against full-armor enemies. Examples of these are the Brood Commander and the Berserker. Unlike other support weapons, you can aim directly at the armor to shatter it, leaving the enemy vulnerable to the following attack. You can switch weapons or continue to obliterate with the Anti-Rifle in hand. It shouldn't take more than\u00a0two to three rifle bullets\u00a0to bring down the toughest foes. While aiming at the armor, make sure to\u00a0pinpoint enemy weak spots\u00a0for a fast, clean kill. These are flesh or muscle for Terminid and glowing red marks on the Automaton. This conserves your ammo and quickly takes an enemy out of the fight so you can shift your focus onto the remaining forces. The rifle has a\u00a0clear and straight trajectory\u00a0when in use, letting you aim directly at the part you want the bullet to penetrate. The rifle is best used from afar, but you are not limited by range with this weapon. While it packs a serious punch beyond a\u00a0100 metre radius, it can be utilized close-range as an action-packed shotgun. Simple point it towards the armored enemy and shoot. The Anti-Material rifle can easily take out anything between yourself and your target, so keep that in mind if you want to use it in third-person mode. This also opens the opportunity for\u00a0collaterals\u00a0as the Anti-Material bullets can pierce multiple enemies at once in a single file line.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/HELLDIVERS2_20240216120653.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134077"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2396"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1134077"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134077\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1134198,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1134077\/revisions\/1134198"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1134144"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1134077"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1134077"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1134077"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
