I'm only level 5 so I only have a few weapons/stratagems unlocked but I'm interested to hear what everyone finds the most fun.

For me, it highly depends on the enemy type (bugs or terminator), the mission type and the load out of the other helldivers.

The shield backpack is great for almost all missions. I also like to bring the rail canon as it helps to kill medium tier enemies.

For the tough enemies and for horde control, I'll usually bring the orbital laser beam and the eagle airstrike.

On "kill them all" missions (on the small map with 12 min time limit) I also prefer EMS and regular mortar (a deadly combination).

The smoke screen can be a great addition as well to give the team a break. However, it has to fit the playstyle of the squad.

My go-to weapon is the incindery breaker. It's insanely overpowered and even on long distances quite effective. And on close range? gg!

The redeemer pistol and a heavy granade give you so much opportunities to singlehandedly kill the lookout and a medium sized enemy hive/base.

Public service announcement: don't forget to bring a booster!
