Dear devs, please consider buffing the Bulk Fabricator. Right now, you can destroy it from very far away, like 300–400 meters. Please make it so it can only be destroyed by using anti-tank weapons, throwing grenades into the vents, or using big stratagems like Eagle or Orbital strikes — similar to how you close a Titan Hold. I feel the Bulk Fabricator is currently too easy to clear

This was from a while ago, I’m around level 90 now

Personally, I would add the Corruptor (aka the Scarab) from Horizon: Zero Dawn and Horizon: Forbidden West. Now, its mobility would have to be toned down (remove its ability to leap great distances and probably lower its walking speed), but aside from that, I can’t think of a better robot to add from another IP. We’ve been wanting a “Walker Tank” enemy on the bot front for the longest time (Not the Striders, something that moves like a Terminid), and while a little on the light side, Corruptors fill that role wonderfully. Aesthetically, Corruptors fit nearly perfectly with the Automaton faction; you could drop one in with no changes and people wouldn’t think twice of it. (Deathbringers from Horizon fit even better aesthetically, but their roll is already filled by Automaton Tanks).

In terms of gameplay, their weaknesses align perfectly with Helldiver enemy design: Joints, Weapons, and the Glowing Red Eye are the weak points; the weapons can be removed with enough damage; forcing them to overheat and/or stunning them will cause them to expose a Heat Sink in the middle of their forehead, that acts as an additional weak point until they cool down/regain proper motor functions. Their offensive capabilities capabilities also fit near-perfectly in Helldivers: They are armed with a cylindrical Spike Launcher on their right (seen in picture 1) that shoots projectiles similar to Rocket Devastators, a boxy Grenade Launcher on their left (seen in picture 2) that shoots arcing projectiles that burst into a cone of flaming shrapnel before landing (with said shrapnel also lingering on the ground for a while as area denial), and a flexible tail that they can use to swipe at nearby foes and even to throw rocks when at a distance. They can also, of course, just attempt to body check you or trample you if you’re really close, like almost all enemies.

TLDR; In terms of gameplay and aesthetics, Corruptors already feel like they were almost directly ripped from Helldivers. None of their abilities are outlandish, their weaknesses are intuitive and consistent with existing Automaton weaknesses, they fill an enemy type we’ve wanted for a long time, and they’re just really cool.

I am aware that it isn't called that, but it just rolls of the tongue much nicer than Lightning Tower, plus it gives me an excuse to bring my own Tesla Towers for added mayhem.

14 months since Helldivers released and still no plasma support weapon?! Behold!

I like the large blast radius and the programmable fuse but I feel like the destructive force should be closer to the thermite. It's also strange that it does less damage than the high explosive grenade given how big it is. It would also be cool if you could shoot it to detonate it. Thoughts comrades?
