The W.A.S.P. Launcher is a strong weapon in Helldivers 2. It’s great for fighting tough enemies and groups of smaller ones. Here’s how to get it and use it.

Steps to Get the Wasp Launcher

  1. Unlock It

    • Keep playing missions and completing objectives to unlock the Wasp Launcher as you progress through the game.

  2. Equip It

    • Find the Wasp Launcher in the Support Weapons section.

    • Add it to your loadout and save it.

  3. Use It in Missions

How to Use the Wasp Launcher

  1. Lock-On to Targets

    • Aim at larger enemies surrounded by smaller ones. Wait for the lock-on to complete before firing.

  2. Choose the Right Mode

    • Burst Mode: Shoots one missile, good for smaller enemies.

    • Artillery Mode: Launches airburst missiles, great for groups of enemies.

  3. When to Use It

    • It’s super effective against tough enemies like Overseers and Watchers, often taking them down in one hit.

    • It can also weaken Harvester shields but isn’t as strong against very heavily armored enemies.

The Wasp Launcher is a great tool to have on your team. Use it wisely to take out enemies quickly and support your squad during battles.
