‘It’s almost useless’: Helldivers 2 player doesn’t understand why everyone uses this Stratagem

Strategems are a core part of the Helldivers 2 experience, and without them, it’s almost impossible to fight off the endless hordes of bugs and bots. But certain Strategems are of questionable quality, and players are now calling one “almost useless.”

“I don’t get the popularity of the 500KG bomb,” Reddit user sajty23 said in a March 18 thread. The thread has garnered over a thousand Helldivers discussing this single Strategem, which is part of the Eagle-One arsenal that usually gets a ton of praise. The user said the 500KG bomb is “almost useless” due to its huge explosion that deals very little damage. “It’s a meme Strategem at best,” they wrote. The Eagle 500KG bomb Strategem is indeed a very popular choice, particularly with new players who see its massive mushroom cloud and hear the big boom and think “Hell yeah.”
