The Best Support Weapons in Helldivers 2
Again, everyone has a favorite they’ll always bring into a mission. I usually lug around a Stalwart because I love the mobility and large magazine size. But I notice many players prefer something with more kick, like the RS-422 Railgun or GR-8 Recoilless Rifle with a B-1 Supply Pack.
Overall, if you want to follow the meta, focus on unlocking and using the following support weapons:
- RS-422 Railgun
- GR-2 Recoilless Rifle
- GL-21 Grenade Launcher
- AC-8 Autocannon
- M-105 Stalwart
In the right hands, and with a bit of practice, each of these five support weapons becomes formidable, capable of taking down the toughest bug foes!
