### Helldivers 2: New Exosuit Stratagems with the Exo Experts Warbond
Helldivers 2 is about to expand its player options with the introduction of the Exo Experts warbond, set to arrive on April 28th. This update will feature two new exosuit stratagems, enhancing the variety and tactical choices in the ongoing fight against Super Earth’s adversaries.
#### New Exosuit Stratagems: EXO-51 Lumberer and EXO-55 Breakthrough
The EXO-51 Lumberer and the EXO-55 Breakthrough mark a significant addition to the game’s roster of mech suits. Notably, the Lumberer makes its return as a reimagined version of an exosuit from the original Helldivers. It boasts formidable weaponry that includes a flamethrower and an anti-tank cannon, ensuring it can handle intense combat scenarios.
In contrast, the Breakthrough is equipped with a flak cannon alongside a large shield, making it particularly effective for offensive maneuvers or defensive operations. The shield can provide a tactical advantage for players looking to gain ground or hold objectives against overwhelming enemy forces.
#### Aesthetic and Functional Features of the New Exosuits
Both new exosuits are designed with a unique aesthetic that hints at their functionality. The O-3 Free Spirit set has a slick, modern look reminiscent of pilot uniforms seen at a Top Gun cosplay event, while the O-2 Heavy Operator set veers toward a robust industrial hazmat suit design. Each suit includes the Oxygenator perk, which, while not particularly exciting, allows characters to move with increased speed.
#### New Weaponry: MGX-42 Bullet Storm, SMG-203 Gallant, and P-33 Missile Pistol
Alongside the new exosuits, players will also gain access to a trio of weapons through the Exo Experts warbond. The MGX-42 Bullet Storm is a machine gun that utilizes multiple ammo barrels, discarding them once emptied. The SMG-203 Gallant is noted for its straightforward design, while the P-33 Missile Pistol uses a target lock system akin to those found in explosive launchers, enhancing its effectiveness against specific targets.
#### Availability and Gameplay Impact
As with all Helldivers 2 warbonds, the Exo Experts package can be purchased using super credits, which can be accrued through gameplay or bought with real money. This update comes after a period of relative stagnation in the game’s galactic war mechanics, following previous updates like the introduction of new missions. The arrival of the Exo Experts warbond promises fresh content and gameplay elements, making it an exciting addition for fans eager to explore new strategies with the upcoming robotic exosuits.
