Bile Titans locations

The enormous Bile Titans are located in Terminid missions from ‘Challenging’ or ‘Hard’ difficulties. They’ll usually appear randomly in enemy mobs while you’re making your way to different objectives but they can occasionally be found at specific ‘Eliminate Bile Titan‘ objectives.

At ‘Suicide Mission’ difficulty and higher, you’ll be able to spot them wandering areas alone or emerging from Bug Breaches along with other Terminids.

How to kill Bile Titans in Helldivers 2

The best way to defeat a Bile Titan in Helldivers 2 is by focusing on its weak spots.

Despite being heavily armored if you can target a Bile Titan mouth or underbelly you’ll have a much better chance of killing it. Both weak spots can be recognized by their green coloring so keep that in mind as you’re aiming.

As you’re attacking it’s important to keep your distance from these enemies as their ranged acid attacks and armored legs can wipe you out quickly if you get hit by either.

While you can penetrate the underbelly with regular primary weapons, you’ll need those with high damage for the mouth. Keep in mind that destroying the underbelly will prevent the Bile Titan from spitting acid and hitting the mouth while it’s getting ready to spit bile will cancel the attack immediately.

Best weapons and stratagems against Bile Titans

Having some explosive stratagem in your arsenal, as well as armor-piercing weapons will give you an advantage over Bile Titans in the game. The following weapons and stratagems are ideal options before taking on Hard or Challenging missions where they can spawn:

  • Recoilless Rifle
  • EAT-17 Expendable Anti-Tank
