Some time ago, a major update came out for Fleshmob, which can be quite a challenge for many players. However, it is not the only opponent that is difficult to kill. Another is Leviathan - a large, armored ship. Does it have any weaknesses, or are there good tactics to deal with it? This is what you will find out in our guide.

How to kill Leviathan easily in Helldivers 2

Leviathan, the powerful Illuminate ship, is not an easy opponent. It has a great number of health points which makes it incredibly hard to kill. Equipped with 8 laser cannons, it wreaks havoc from the sky. Moreover, it can deploy other units on the ground.

Leviathan, in general, does not have many weaknesses. However, this does not mean that it cannot be killed. In the first place, you should focus on its wings, or the circular-shaped fields that are located on its belly. While shooting them off won't make Leviathan suddenly fall to the ground, it will cause flames to appear on his “body”. Hitting these burning points seem to give this creature a little bit more damage.

However, in order to make this happen, you first need to choose the right weapons. And for this task only powerful weapons like Recoilless Rifle or Faf-14 Spear will be suitable. Anti-Tank Emplacement can also help. Other guns won't make much of a difference to it, as the ship has Anti-Tank level armor.

Moreover, not to focus on attacking his laser cannons. They are indestructible. You will only lose time and ammunition if you try to aim at these places. Speaking of its cannons, as soon as you become their target, momentarily hide behind some buildings to cut off its line of sight. That way you will stop being attacked. We hope that with these tips, the fight against these newcomers will become much easier, and humanity will win against the danger from space!
