The Autocannon Breaks HELLDIVERS 2 | Weapon Tips and Tricks

Introducing the Autocannon (or the Chadcannon if you ask me or another of his devote followers)!
After the recent nerfs to the railgun-shield gen meta, the Helldivers 2 community has been left defenseless against the deadly hordes of the Terminids and Automaton threats. That is... Until now. The Autocannon can shred through armor, destroy objectives, and can even be used to lure away enemies with it's explosive shell

The autocannon is by far one of the best weapons to have in your arsenals when you're playing on higher difficulties. In this video I do a deep dive into the mechanics, giving tips and tricks for the Autocannon in Helldivers 2 like how to kill the Charger with the Autocannon. With this awesome weapon, you can shoot the heads off Brood Commands, one-shot Striders, and even take out a tank without having to reload once! The Autocannon is one of the most powerful, dare I say- OVERPOWERED weapons in Helldivers 2. So OP in fact, I'll just list some of the best features:
Higher than average armor pen
Take out both bug holes and bot fabricators
Easily take out spore trees and propaganda towers
Lead enemies away with the sound of the explosive projectile.
Get it way earlier than the railgun
2 shot Hulks in the weak point
1 shot all devastators or stagger on hit to body
1 shot Striders
2 shot Chargers
1 shot Brood Commanders
3 shots takes out a tank
Can empty the 60 shell max carry in seconds if you have a loader helping you.

Even after the latest patch (Helldivers 2 Patch 1.000.102) that reworked some of the Charger's weakpoints, the autocannon still serves as one of the best stratagems. If anything the update just gave you another place to hit a charger, but this time its closer to the front. There are many other tips and tricks
