The Bile Titan is the toughest bug you’ll fight in Helldivers 2. Facing off against one is tough if you’re in a squad, but taking one down solo can seem nearly impossible. However, there are a few tactics you can use when fighting a Bile Titan solo in Helldivers 2 that can make the battle much easier.
How to kill a Bile Titan solo in Helldivers 2
You’ll find that Bile Titans are one of the most formidable enemies in Helldivers 2 to take down solo. However, most of the challenge comes from the enemies spawning with it. In particular, it’s tough to worry about the Titan when Chargers are bearing down on you. Things are a lot easier in a squad since you’ll have teammates splitting the smaller enemies’ attention. However, if you’re playing solo, then everything will be aggroing you.
Obviously, the easiest way to take down a Bile Titan is a Strategem like the Eagle 500kg Bomb or Orbital Railcannon Strike. If you hit the creature with one of these, it’ll go down in one hit.
However, you may be out of Strategems or want to save them for later. If this is the case, your best bet is to use the Railgun. If you hit the titan in the head with railgun rounds, it’ll temporarily stagger it. Fortunately, the rate of fire is high enough that you can effectively stunlock it until it dies. If you don’t have access to the Railgun, then you can use the Recoilless Rifle or Expendable Anti-Tank Launcher. However, both of those weapons are a bit less effective.
Suppose you continue to have issues taking down the Bile Titan in Helldivers 2, even with the Railgun. In that case, you can deploy a Tesla Tower. These turrets will always draw aggro, which can give you time to get into position to take the titan out.
