Bile Titans are tough enemies to defeat in Helldivers 2.

Bile Titans are the largest known Terminid enemies currently in Helldivers 2. They are heavily armored and can deal deadly damage with their armored limbs, as well as spewing acid attacks that can often kill you in a single blow if they hit you.

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 Titans mouth or underbelly you’ll have a much better chance of killing it in Helldivers 2. 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 also 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.
