The Bile Titan is akin to the general of the Terminid army in Helldivers 2. It’s a massive beast, towering over everything on four tall legs. There are multiple ways to kill the Bile Titan in Helldivers 2, one of which is quick. Sometimes.
The best way to kill a Bile Titan in Helldivers 2 is by turning it to mulch with a powerful Secondary Weapon or Stratagem. Weapons like the EAT-17 and Quasar Cannon do a ton of damage to the hulking monstrosity, especially if you aim at its head ā the Bile Titan’s primary weak point.
How to kill a Bile Titan in Helldivers 2
It’s up for debate how much damage a Bile Titan must take before toppling over like a stack of lawn chairs. A couple of shots to the face with an EAT can do it, but the bug may need more before you can convince it to give up the ghost. No, you can’t fire away with the Railgun until its head explodes ā not anymore, that is.
As far as Stratagems go, the Bile Titan isn’t a fan of the Eagle 500kg Bomb or the Orbital Railgun. The latter is a better idea if you want to go for the kill shot, but keep in mind that the Titan may shrug off the first slug. Yes, it’s a bit inconsistent. My favorite methods are the 500kg Bomb and the Orbital Laser. Keep in mind that the bomb beacon must be dropped in the Bile Titan’s path. You can be smart about it, though.
The best method to kill a Bile Titan with an Eagle 500kg Bomb:
- Get the Bile Titan’s attention by shooting it or entering its view
- Allow the Titan to get close and prepare a bile spew
- As it begins the above, drop the beacon under the Titan and run
Helldivers 2: Bile Titan weak points
The Bile Titan is a Heavy enemy and, like the Charger, is coated in heavy carapace that acts as armor save for a couple of squishy spots. For the Titan, the soft, green belly is a smart target for you and your team to take advantage of, and here’s why.
The Bile Titan has two attacks based on distance. When close, the Bile Titan will stomp on you with its massive legs. If you’re out of reach, it spews a jet stream of green bile that can kill you in seconds. That’s why you’ll want to target its belly to stop it from firing acid.
Use medium and heavy weapons to inflict damage to its abdomen. After a while, you can destroy its belly and the Bile Titan will lose its ability to spew acid.
Best weapons to use on the Bile Titan in Helldivers 2
Consider using these Support Weapons to kill the Bile Titan:
- EAT-17
- Quasar Cannon
- Recoilless Rifle
- Autocannon
- Spear
Against the Titan’s armor, the EAT-17 Expendable Anti-Tank works well. Try it as well as the Quasar Cannon, as they dish out the most damage quickly and reliably.
The sleeper hit from this list may be the Arc Thrower. It penetrates armor and can be fired from a considerable distance. The only drawback is that it can result in friendly-fire killings or prioritize smaller fries beneath it. You’d only want to use this weapon if the Bile Titan is by itself.
