All Helldivers 2 Dust Devils Warbond rewards
Dust Devils Warbond is themed around the desert and dealing with the dangers of Hive Worlds, so everything is in the sand color for you to blend in with the environment. The Warbond features one new weapon and a whopping three Stratagems, alongside the regular armor sets and cosmetics.
Here’s everything you can expect to see in the Dust Devils Warbond:
- DS-42 Federation’s Blade heavy armor
- DS-191 Scorpion medium armor
- AR-2 Coyote assault rifle with incendiary rounds
- G-7 Pineapple cluster frag grenade
- S-11 Speargun stratagem
- MS-11 Solo Silo stratagem
- EAT-700 Expendable Napalm
- Rattlesnake patterns
- Rightful Occupier banner and cape
- Windswept Wayfinder banner and cape
- Raider’s Cheer emote
- Burier of Heads title
New armor sets come with the Desert Stormer passive trait, which grants resistance to fire, gas, acid, and arc, as well as increases the throw distance. And you might need resistance to all of those elements, considering the Stratagems in this Warbond.
The S-11 Speargun fires massive harpoons that release toxic gas on impact. You can use it to disorient larger enemies, like Chargers, or deal with smaller hordes. Another tool to deal with waves of enemies is the EAT-700 Expendable Napalm, which fires missiles with cluster napalm bombs. For the baddest of bads, there’s the MS-11 Solo Silo. The stratagem calls down a Hellpod with a missile that you can aim at the target using a handheld remote.
Apart from the Stratagems, there’s a new assault rifle, grenade, a bunch of cosmetics, and a menacing Burier of Heads title to strike fear into your enemies’ hearts.
