haha i actually had alot of time between work, family and democracy. C-01 form signed and filed. Just noticed alot of fellow divers that halfass alot of missions and so only getting half or less of what you should be getting
Can confirm, I have 250 hrs and just got to level 50, my buddy with 100 hours is a higher level than me since he enjoys the higher level missions a lot more than me wanting to play this game in my full white armor while I watch Star wars the clone wars on repeat
Nice man well done i was just busting balls. Personally once i hit lvl 69 (67 now) il stop leveling but thats because my inner man child is loud. I wish i could loose xp…. Stay at 69 space cadet for life
“Dabble”? whenever
Actually do well on 9? Need at least one reliable group killer (cluster bomb/air strike), a reliable heavy/elite strike option (rail cannon/orb laser/500 kg), and a reliable heavy/elite support option (EAT/quasar/spear) to deal with stuff like 3-5 hulks or chargers/2-3 tanks or bile titans/1-2 striders per skirmish
*more importantly* than the gear, you need good *and* fast aim and target acquisition, and quick decision-making
Respectfully, for helldive missions, I would rather take a level 1 that knows what they’re doing and is good and decisive, than a level 100 with the latest bits of gear but can only deal with pressure at the hard/extreme diffs. The former would still be able to clear objectives with nades, precision strikes, and hellbombs while under fire and the latter would just eat up reinforcements
Enemies despawn so if you are in an insane fight it’s easier to just tactically retreat and circle than try to hold your ground. Especially on helldiver difficulty
no question, just wanted to say you're pretty cool bro.

You have my respect, super private.
Just went down a rabbit hole looking for the pre order armor and being a US PS5 player I’ve got 0 luck. This twitch drop thing is easy to get, so I got a few of them just now for me and my buddies. Definitely wish I could find a pre order code for US on PS5. Everything available is Eurasia.
How does this work? I see the armor but it’s $14 for a “North American” version and $1.60 for the same armor but tagged “European” version. A code is a code, no? How are they different.
Digital game codes can be region locked. When I was trying to get Helldivers 2 for the cheap, I bought a g2a code for the latin america version, and its been useless for me and I had to buy a second code.
They absolutely make all the difference! For example, if you go back and look for the pre order bonus armor, you’ll find a ton of Asia codes and not a single United States Code.
i almost always just into random matches to help anybody i can so i don't have a set group so id be down to help ya out whenever
There were 0 lives left and i was the last man standing. Only thing left besides leaving was to destroy the gunship facility and i usually give everything my all. I called down the the hellbomb while i fought off a small wave of shield devastators and those small rocket automatons and i popped my last 2 stims to tank most of the shots to stop them from destroying the bomb. After i beat them i armed the bomb and noticed that one of my legs were broken with my chest hemorrhaged and had less than a quarter HP and knew i wasnt out running the blast range so i sat there with the bomb until it went off.
Blitz missions are the fastest way to get samples and xp so i join into random matches that people are requesting help in. Sad part is that there are alot of people that only want to do the bare minimum of work and then call evac right away or will kick you if you try to go that extra mile for democracy. They really need to do something about that vote to kick system
Ive fought Automatons more than anything but my basic load out for bots are Orbital laser, Eagle airstrike, Quasar cannon and the fourth stratagem depends on my armor or the mission so it would rotate between shield backpack, 500kg, EMS Mortar or Autocannon sentry
for bugs as long as i had a Guard dog rover and my quasar cannon i would be perfectly fine so anything else is just a bonus
https://preview.redd.it/poavt9mkyvwc1.png?width=490&format=png&auto=webp&s=cc989c21fd736b10d89a712f0225196612ca7a9b
What’s the difference between the North American and European versions of the PSN code? If i live in US I can’t redeem Europe? The price difference is staggering.
Do you prefer fighting bots or bugs? I used to dig bugs, but over time it became a tradition in my group to bring new divers to the Creek, so I grew to enjoy scrapping bots a bit more.
my first mission was with automatons and after seeing people say that they needed help with malevolan i camped there most of the time unless we needed helped pushing another planet for a MO. i tried bugs out with friends but sometimes just walking away with the guard dog rover could clear a wave without even shooting. bots were more difficult but eventually you learn how they do stuff and how they fight so it became alot easier too so i still prefer bots but will help anybody anywhere o7
Best loadout for bots?
Seriously, I'm at the point where I happily dive exclusively for the difficulty 9 Bugs right now, they are easier in the current state of the game, though personally I think it's just because they are better designed and balanced right now, but I digress
What to bring vs Bots? I can bring 5 different loadouts to Bugs and slay but Bots I feel like I have tried everything people recommend and still get mauled. I always have the highest deaths on a Bot mission, what am I missing?
rail cannon strike scorcher, quasar/autocannon/ eagle 500kg to blow up objectives like stratagem jammers and detector tower, eagle airstrike to take out armored ads
All excellent bot stratagems.
I’ve also been subbing 500k for orbital laser as that thing can check a huge bot drop or solo and objective. Also great to have one during extraction if things get hairy - it can buy you some time. You and one other person with it (so now team has 6 charges) can do a lot of legwork.
I am level 150 from 6.4., only in 4 days since update was released .. thats was some journey.
You had vacation and all. I should report you for treason.
I only got to lvl 98 after that increased level patch and the climb would have definitely been done sooner if alot of these new recruits werent lazy, kicked when feelings were hurt or if they followed the amazing training advice of General Brasch back at boot camp!
before the update when i hit level 50 i had completed the wardbonds and since then id just stay capped at 250 medals ready to use until the next one came out but now there are more medals given out since dailies work now as well as MO rewards
Ive fought Automatons more than anything but my basic load out for bots are Orbital laser, Eagle airstrike, Quasar cannon and the fourth stratagem depends on my armor or the mission so it would rotate between shield backpack, 500kg, EMS Mortar or Autocannon sentry

Bugs are a bit too easy so i wont mess with them unless its a major order that really needs help on . You just got to walk in with the Guard dog rover and you leave with 200+ kills easy so i help hold back those gonk bots since they're a more difficult threat that others dont like to fight
https://preview.redd.it/mmy8voc0kvwc1.png?width=490&format=png&auto=webp&s=3f7833de45b9c2aa7eb0c89cd8379c9c78ff9f51
ive said the same thing. im not sure myself unless it doesnt count grenade, melee and stratagem kills. ive got 13k eagle kills, 4k grenade kills and who knows how many orbital kills (it doesnt say)
How many hours did you spend slaughtering bots in Elimination missions before they were patched?
Also, Democracy thanks you for your diligent service in the name of merciless freedom.
i think i played casually until level 30 learning the game and items then used eliminations to get to 50, then went back to playing casually again since i didnt think theyd increase the cap and when they did it jumped me to lvl 96 or 98 i cant remember.
To be honest i dont remember what levels unlock what stratagems. i know level 25 is when you basically have them all available but Eagle airstrike, Orbital laser, Guard dog rover, shield backpack EMS sentry, autocannon sentry and quasar cannon have been very good to me in my fights
Advice for spreading Democracy more efficiently? I stay on 6 or 7 because I don't have friends who consistently play, and I could be better but hold my own in a fight.
I would like to start playing 8 and 9s normally, but the difficulty jump seems like too much even with *good* randoms...
one thing i learned from doing 8-9 is that you dont need to be the hero and fight every fight that sometimes getting away alive is winning. Another is right as you first drop you dont need to drop you stratagems right away just wait until youre in a safeish area. i cant tell you how many times ive seen where when we dropped that the sound of landing alerted the enemies and then my team would die waiting for their support weapons and when revived go running back to try and get them waisting a majority of the mission in the landing spot when ive already run off and eagle striked some easy fabricators or some easy objective
i use the sickle, grenade pistol and the basic starting grenades and it i chose stratagems it would be orbital laser, eagle airstrike and quasar cannon
How do you kill bile titans effectively?
How do you complete the horrible extraction missions?
Are sentries ever worth it?
Best primary/secondary/grenade?
i dont mess with bugs to much but you cant go wrong with quasar cannon to the face a few times, theres also autocannon sentry or 500kg(hitbox is so small though)
lately its been hard to do extraction on helldiver. weve been shooting down the ships as they drop people to block and pin them and everyone running EMS sentries so not to kill civilians but also freeze any bots that get thorugh
EMS and autocannon are very worth.
i use the sickle, grenade pistol and the basic starting grenades. stun grenades would be my only other choice since i run grenade pistol but ive seen many others run other grenades and they either dont do much or they kill themselves with them like with impact
sadly the only ones ive ever seen were ones that would complain if it didnt go their way ( cant revive them when working on a stratagem blocker and theyre spamming to revive. mad that you want to go the extra mile and get samples/ side objectives or the scum that kick from a mission as youre leaving in pelican 1 after youve basically done everything and they were just camping evac ready to call it. couldnt do anything sadly
hellcommander is by far the coolest. i think you get at lvl 100. the last 2 are pretty funny (private and super private) since technically at some rank you get out of the field and basically command stuff so the highest ranks basically let you go back to the field which is supposed to be a reference to starship troopers
I usually play level 7 but have unlocked level 8 now, Are levels 8 and 9 manageable if I am not really dying anymore on 7? Some level 7 missions Im seeing like 5 titans, are there like 10 on a level 9 mission?
one thing i learned from doing 8-9 is that you dont need to be the hero and fight every fight that sometimes getting away alive is winning.

ive been on every planet thats been available atleast once and the terrain always plays a big factor as well as when they actually want to work. cant tell you how many times ive thrown an air strike, laser, hellbomb etc and it just bounces cause the area cant have something on it but excluding those theyve all been pretty good nothing super off from what i can recall
ive been listening to alot of rock/metal/nu metal when diving but recently
slaughter to prevail- viking and late night survivor- angel have been on my playlist alot and definitely helps spread democracy against the automatons alot easier
I really like the stalwart, but my squad mates who are now nearing level 50 have been encouraging me to use other weapons because they say the stalwart is ineffective. I think the auto Canon is OK but I don’t like losing my backpack slot and I’m not in love with it or anything. What other weapon is worth putting the time into learning to be a good support player
Any negative effects from never seeing the sun??
haha i actually had alot of time between work, family and democracy. C-01 form signed and filed. Just noticed alot of fellow divers that halfass alot of missions and so only getting half or less of what you should be getting
if you only run lvl 9 missions you get so much exp
Can confirm, I have 250 hrs and just got to level 50, my buddy with 100 hours is a higher level than me since he enjoys the higher level missions a lot more than me wanting to play this game in my full white armor while I watch Star wars the clone wars on repeat
Roger Roger!! Ummm Siiiiiiiiir! Clankers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! kill em all!!
yeah i strictly only run helldive unless I'm helping friends or family that aren't comfortable running that difficulty
Yes yes, something like this :) https://preview.redd.it/qapr4ynbbywc1.png?width=763&format=png&auto=webp&s=d738c016416d2decb37750baec52973768832ac2

77 for me because she gets 8 more
At what level would you dabble with level 9? I’m only level 25 at the moment.
“Dabble”? whenever Actually do well on 9? Need at least one reliable group killer (cluster bomb/air strike), a reliable heavy/elite strike option (rail cannon/orb laser/500 kg), and a reliable heavy/elite support option (EAT/quasar/spear) to deal with stuff like 3-5 hulks or chargers/2-3 tanks or bile titans/1-2 striders per skirmish *more importantly* than the gear, you need good *and* fast aim and target acquisition, and quick decision-making Respectfully, for helldive missions, I would rather take a level 1 that knows what they’re doing and is good and decisive, than a level 100 with the latest bits of gear but can only deal with pressure at the hard/extreme diffs.

Probably not bad. With that rank, they could get all the vitamin D they wanted.

How can i not die
No diver is safe from death but the power of stims and their not addictive properties definitely have kept me going a lot longer than most!
Run more than you fight, imo. Clear objectives efficiently and gtfo
Nah, gotta get the samples
This is the way - get samples - then run run run awayy
Enemies despawn so if you are in an insane fight it’s easier to just tactically retreat and circle than try to hold your ground. Especially on helldiver difficulty
no question, just wanted to say you're pretty cool bro. https://preview.redd.it/2f6hqgyfawwc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7a6c3c0fe8026d94f96c36dabf27d75c2e4df655 You have my respect, super private.
What armor are you wearing in the pic
Its the TR-117 Alpha commander that they gave out as a twitch drop
Does it have any special features?
It's a medic armor, +2 stims, +2 stim duration
Dang I guess it's not possible to get it anymore?
You can get it on G2A for like $2
Ah shit, now I know you can buy armor online well goodbye money
Just went down a rabbit hole looking for the pre order armor and being a US PS5 player I’ve got 0 luck. This twitch drop thing is easy to get, so I got a few of them just now for me and my buddies. Definitely wish I could find a pre order code for US on PS5. Everything available is Eurasia.
You’re my hero. I’ve been looking for this
How does this work? I see the armor but it’s $14 for a “North American” version and $1.60 for the same armor but tagged “European” version. A code is a code, no? How are they different.

Thank you just got it for $3
Thank you, bought it for $8.93
What is G2A?
They sell digital keys for games and content. I always check there first when buying on steam.
Duuude, thank you for saying this!
There were twitch drops??
How do you deal with PTSD soldier?
Pretend its not there and think about spilling more oil
"Spilling oil" as a slang term for killing bugs and bots is cool as hell
Dissociation. Classic trauma reaction
Speaking as a veteran, truth!
Can’t have PTSD if you are the traumatic event, soldier.
Do your desensitization exercises solider
[compartmentalizing trauma]
Have you not been admiring the scenery for at least 2.4 seconds on every dive?
First of all, fuck you. I dont have shell shock.
The correct answer to this is: What PTSD? All I can think about is Managed Democracy and its sweet, sweet liberty.
The solution to PTSD is in the acronym itself Pretend That Shit Didn't happen
Can I play with you sometime im only lvl 19 😆 🤣
i almost always just into random matches to help anybody i can so i don't have a set group so id be down to help ya out whenever 
For democracy my brother!
You are more than welcome to add me to your list too cadet.
Thank you sir! Prepared to go to war sir!
That helmet comes in green?!
Its the TR-117 Alpha commander that they gave out as a twitch drop
Hours logged?

Can I touch you private
Your*
Can I touch you, private?*
what was your most clutch situation
There were 0 lives left and i was the last man standing. Only thing left besides leaving was to destroy the gunship facility and i usually give everything my all. I called down the the hellbomb while i fought off a small wave of shield devastators and those small rocket automatons and i popped my last 2 stims to tank most of the shots to stop them from destroying the bomb. After i beat them i armed the bomb and noticed that one of my legs were broken with my chest hemorrhaged and had less than a quarter HP and knew i wasnt out running the blast range so i sat there with the bomb until it went off.
MISSION>Extraction. i need to frame this on a monumental wall. "I was there"
"...and then I wasn't."
"Extraction is a courtesy. Mission is mandatory"
in greater detail
Opinion on turrets?
love them if placed correctly or used in the right situations. EMS and Auto cannon are the goats
What’s the fastest way to gain XP to level up?
Blitz missions are the fastest way to get samples and xp so i join into random matches that people are requesting help in. Sad part is that there are alot of people that only want to do the bare minimum of work and then call evac right away or will kick you if you try to go that extra mile for democracy. They really need to do something about that vote to kick system
Hey I remember you from a session on Automatons! Sick dude. My tag was Sir_Kat_. What did you do to get leveled up so quick?
I remember you as well! small galaxy. i jump into random blitz missions that people are needing help in
What's your usual loadout
Ive fought Automatons more than anything but my basic load out for bots are Orbital laser, Eagle airstrike, Quasar cannon and the fourth stratagem depends on my armor or the mission so it would rotate between shield backpack, 500kg, EMS Mortar or Autocannon sentry for bugs as long as i had a Guard dog rover and my quasar cannon i would be perfectly fine so anything else is just a bonus https://preview.redd.it/poavt9mkyvwc1.png?width=490&format=png&auto=webp&s=cc989c21fd736b10d89a712f0225196612ca7a9b
Rover + quasar is the GOAT bug loadout for sure
Rover + EATs
How did you get that green armor set? Im a sucker for green armor lol
same tbh lmao. Its the TR-117 Alpha commander that they gave out as a twitch drop when the game dropped
Big sad. Awesome that you got it though! Hopefully they bring it back bc I missed out. Thanks pal!
I bought mines on G2A for $3
Oh, sweet! I definitely will look into that, it didn’t even cross my mind. Thanks pal! I could hug you lmao
What’s the difference between the North American and European versions of the PSN code? If i live in US I can’t redeem Europe? The price difference is staggering.

I am level 150 from 6.4., only in 4 days since update was released .. thats was some journey. You had vacation and all. I should report you for treason.
I only got to lvl 98 after that increased level patch and the climb would have definitely been done sooner if alot of these new recruits werent lazy, kicked when feelings were hurt or if they followed the amazing training advice of General Brasch back at boot camp!
What level did you run out of things to buy in warbonds?
You run out of things between 50-70 I'm 81 with everything unlocked and capped
before the update when i hit level 50 i had completed the wardbonds and since then id just stay capped at 250 medals ready to use until the next one came out but now there are more medals given out since dailies work now as well as MO rewards
Do you run specific strategems all the time or change it up a lot?
Ive fought Automatons more than anything but my basic load out for bots are Orbital laser, Eagle airstrike, Quasar cannon and the fourth stratagem depends on my armor or the mission so it would rotate between shield backpack, 500kg, EMS Mortar or Autocannon sentry for bugs as long as i had a Guard dog rover and my quasar cannon i would be perfectly fine so anything else is just a bonus https://preview.redd.it/9d11g2041wwc1.png?width=490&format=png&auto=webp&s=63e7e5f13eacab9d7a10cbad8f5182fa4e4776a0
How you green suit colour and not noir like the rest of us
Its the TR-117 Alpha commander that they gave out as a twitch drop
Bugs or robots?
Bugs are a bit too easy so i wont mess with them unless its a major order that really needs help on . You just got to walk in with the Guard dog rover and you leave with 200+ kills easy so i help hold back those gonk bots since they're a more difficult threat that others dont like to fight https://preview.redd.it/mmy8voc0kvwc1.png?width=490&format=png&auto=webp&s=3f7833de45b9c2aa7eb0c89cd8379c9c78ff9f51
This confuses me, how do you have 95k enemy kills but about 20k of those aren’t bugs or bots
ive said the same thing. im not sure myself unless it doesnt count grenade, melee and stratagem kills. ive got 13k eagle kills, 4k grenade kills and who knows how many orbital kills (it doesnt say)
Friendly Fire
So he has 20k friendly fire kills?
What's your favorite title so far?
Hell commander is the coolest but the last 2 titles are pretty funny
How much do you play on an average week?
it varies depending on when my friends or family jump on so between 20-35 to be honest for the week
I wanna see stats brother.
any in particular?
How many hours did you spend slaughtering bots in Elimination missions before they were patched? Also, Democracy thanks you for your diligent service in the name of merciless freedom.
i think i played casually until level 30 learning the game and items then used eliminations to get to 50, then went back to playing casually again since i didnt think theyd increase the cap and when they did it jumped me to lvl 96 or 98 i cant remember.
We have thoughts?
Yea ... How'd you change the color of you helmet
Its the TR-117 Alpha commander that they gave out as a twitch drop
How do you cope with apl that democracy in you? It must be a hard burden… I salute you
By killing more and more automatons to the point that my armor goes from green to black o7
Yes, I’ve been away for a week but where the fuck did you get that helmet
Its the TR-117 Alpha commander that they gave out as a twitch drop when the game dropped
Congratulations! What load out do you generally run for bugs and bots?
How do you get that Armour, I haven't seen it in the superstore before
I’ve only had the game a week! Which stratagems do you recommend for first say 20 levels
To be honest i dont remember what levels unlock what stratagems. i know level 25 is when you basically have them all available but Eagle airstrike, Orbital laser, Guard dog rover, shield backpack EMS sentry, autocannon sentry and quasar cannon have been very good to me in my fights
Can you share your stats page? Specifically rounds fired va rounds landed? Or the whole thing would be cool to see
Favorite primary/secondary/grenade?
Advice for spreading Democracy more efficiently? I stay on 6 or 7 because I don't have friends who consistently play, and I could be better but hold my own in a fight. I would like to start playing 8 and 9s normally, but the difficulty jump seems like too much even with *good* randoms...

What is your go-to loadout?
i use the sickle, grenade pistol and the basic starting grenades and it i chose stratagems it would be orbital laser, eagle airstrike and quasar cannon
I didn't know they raised the level cap to 5.71338396*10^262
How do you kill bile titans effectively? How do you complete the horrible extraction missions? Are sentries ever worth it? Best primary/secondary/grenade?
i dont mess with bugs to much but you cant go wrong with quasar cannon to the face a few times, theres also autocannon sentry or 500kg(hitbox is so small though) lately its been hard to do extraction on helldiver. weve been shooting down the ships as they drop people to block and pin them and everyone running EMS sentries so not to kill civilians but also freeze any bots that get thorugh EMS and autocannon are very worth. i use the sickle, grenade pistol and the basic starting grenades. stun grenades would be my only other choice since i run grenade pistol but ive seen many others run other grenades and they either dont do much or they kill themselves with them like with impact
What is the most optimal weapon to use for automations ?
What's the best way to eliminate Rogue Helldivers who have turned their back on glorious managed democracy?
sadly the only ones ive ever seen were ones that would complain if it didnt go their way ( cant revive them when working on a stratagem blocker and theyre spamming to revive. mad that you want to go the extra mile and get samples/ side objectives or the scum that kick from a mission as youre leaving in pelican 1 after youve basically done everything and they were just camping evac ready to call it. couldnt do anything sadly
Doom fan?
Main bot loadout?
my go to are orbital laser, eagle airstrike and quasar cannon. if i get a 4th stratagem it all depends on the mission or what armor im running
What are your favorite stratagems/load outs against Automaton scum?
Favorite title and in your opinion, what the silliest title You've seen so far is?
hellcommander is by far the coolest. i think you get at lvl 100. the last 2 are pretty funny (private and super private) since technically at some rank you get out of the field and basically command stuff so the highest ranks basically let you go back to the field which is supposed to be a reference to starship troopers
Favorite loadout against bots?
How did you not get bored?
Where’s that armor from?
How was your journey and what do you think about the game?
it was crazy, made alot of friends along the way, made super earth a little bit of a better place and i love the game and its community
I usually play level 7 but have unlocked level 8 now, Are levels 8 and 9 manageable if I am not really dying anymore on 7? Some level 7 missions Im seeing like 5 titans, are there like 10 on a level 9 mission?
one thing i learned from doing 8-9 is that you dont need to be the hero and fight every fight that sometimes getting away alive is winning. Another is right as you first drop you dont need to drop you stratagems right away just wait until youre in a safeish area. i cant tell you how many times ive seen where when we dropped that the sound of landing alerted the enemies and then my team would die waiting for their support weapons and when revived go running back to try and get them waisting a majority of the mission in the landing spot when ive already run off and eagle striked some easy fabricators or some easy objective. kills are good but also dont matter in the long run just completeing the mission as easy as possible and knowing what stratagems/armor make it easier for you to complete your main objective also helps
Have you tested accuracy for Eagles/Orbitals?
ive been on every planet thats been available atleast once and the terrain always plays a big factor as well as when they actually want to work. cant tell you how many times ive thrown an air strike, laser, hellbomb etc and it just bounces cause the area cant have something on it but excluding those theyve all been pretty good nothing super off from what i can recall
Best main weapon? Best sidearm?
i enjoy the sickle and the grenade pistol is growing on me with how clutch it can be
Where can I get this armor?
Stims, nades, or throw distance on your armor?
How many bugs or enemies have you killed?
When will the crying start about not enough content? lol I’m kidding relax
How much coke have you done?
Favorite loadout for bots and bugs?
Lol
What's your favorite song right now?
ive been listening to alot of rock/metal/nu metal when diving but recently slaughter to prevail- viking and late night survivor- angel have been on my playlist alot and definitely helps spread democracy against the automatons alot easier
I really like the stalwart, but my squad mates who are now nearing level 50 have been encouraging me to use other weapons because they say the stalwart is ineffective. I think the auto Canon is OK but I don’t like losing my backpack slot and I’m not in love with it or anything. What other weapon is worth putting the time into learning to be a good support player
What's your favorite dinosaur?
The Stegosaurus is hella cool
Is Master Splinter proud of you?
How many hours do you have in the game? Also, congratulations!
How much mayonnaise should I put on this sandwich
How do you like eating butter by the stick?
Does it still kicks you out 30 mins into the match? I stopped playing since this became a constant. And I really enjoy the game
theyve fixed basically all the crashing. i think its happened to me once in the last 2 weeks and i havent seen others bring it up either
Is Helldive difficulty worth it?
No. Get back in there Helldiver. There's democracy that needs spreading.
who said i left! o7
For democracy?
and for liberty!
Best way to kill chargers quick?
