Despite the obvious satire and light-hearted nature of Helldivers 2, there's a multitude of enemies to deal with, all unique with their own move set and weaponry.

Here's everything you need to know about where to find and how to kill Devastators in Helldivers 2. Helldivers 2: Devastators difficulty and location Rather surprisingly, Devastators are easy to find and kill when compared to other Automaton enemies. The standard Devastator variants reside in Easy levels and above. You can find these on any Automaton-controlled planet as long as you've unlocked Easy difficulty. This version of the Devastators has a single firearm, with relatively slow movement and a melee attack when they get close.

These include shields and rocket variants. However, the shield variant can appear in Easy difficulty levels, specifically at the extraction point. The highest chance of meeting a Devastator is during Bot Breaches. This is where a Commissar or Raider calls for help, sending down a Dropship filled with enemies. How to kill Devastators in Helldivers 2 The key to defeating Devastators quickly in Helldivers 2 is to aim for its weapon-wielding hand first. This will make the Devastator obsolete. Then use your primary weapon like the SG-225 Breaker or R-63 Diligence (scoped in) to deal critical damage onto its glowing red and exposed head. The Breaker, Spray&Pray, and Break-Action Shotgun (only obtainable as ground loot) are excellent close
