Ever since the Escalation of Freedom update, Helldivers started noticing just how complicated and annoying some of their enemies were. The community also noticed an increase in the random spawns, which further decreased the morale of players. One thing is for sure, there is no better to tighten the Helldivers 2 community than to hate one common enemy, this time the honor went to one Automaton unit.

Helldivers 2 Players Reveal Which Automaton Unit Deserves All the Hate

These Automatons can quite often be seen spawning out of thin air right in front of a player. They are notoriously quiet and just as deadly. Of course, they are none other than the Berserkers. Now, what is so horrible about them to deserve all the hate? Players gladly elaborated.

Magic-potato-man started off by saying: “These mfs DO NOT get enough hate. Why the f**k is there so many of them??? Why do they have so much health?? I would be fine with them if they did not come in groups of 9!! F**k these guys and f**ck Hellmire”. You know that something is really hated when players start pairing it with Hellmire.

TehSomeDude shared what annoyed them the most. They stated: “Don’t forget them still moving towards you while staggered. The bastards”. Another player, johnis12, added: “That seems like a problem with a couple of enemies in general, Chargers, Hulks, Brood Commanders, etc. I hate when I stagger or stun them, as soon as the duration ends, they either immediately start attacking or just slide”.

Devoted Helldivers Share Berserkers’ Most Annoying Traits

Well, Helldivers 2 players didn’t disappoint as they offered even more reasons why this Automaton unit deserved all the hate. If you’ve already faced one, you know how hard to kill they were. Sometimes it feels like they’ll never die.

TheOnlyGuyInSpace21 stated: “Ah yes, my favorite. I call them sponges because they sponge up so many f**king bullets it’s ridiculous”. Another player, wolfmanpraxis, confirmed: “Mag dumping one of those seems the best way to kill one. But, then you have to contend with the 8-9 behind them and you only have 3 additional magazines”.

Finally, the players addressed one of the most eerily annoying traits of these Automatons. Dan-of-Steel noted: “Well obviously the quietest enemy in the faction would be the ones with 2 LOUD, MECHANICAL CHAINSAWS ATTACHED TO THEIR ARMS”.

Truth be told, we hate when one of these approaches us from the back, it’s just ludicrous they can’t be heard until it’s practically too late. Unfortunately, love them or hate them, the community has to deal with them in the current Major Order. So, switch up your build and meet us on Vernen Wells, for Super Earth.
