← ENEMIES·AUTOMATONS·INCINERATION CORPS PYRO TROOPER
The Pyro Trooper is a light Automaton that is part of the Incineration Corps subfaction. It is equipped with a Portable Flamer and specialised White Phosphorous Grenades.
TACTICAL BRIEF
• As their gas tanks are taller than them, they can be easily shot at to cause them to explode. Helldivers should ensure they are at a safe distance away before doing so. Diving backwards while shooting them is recommended to avoid potential damage from the Industrial Flamer.
• The gas tanks can still potentially explode on their remains, but they can still be shot to blow them up prematurely.
• All light Automatons can be suppressed by shooting at them; this will briefly reduce their accuracy.
• All light Automatons are equipped with a hidden flare launcher in their left arm, which can be used to call in Bot Drops. Destroying them before it can finish launching the flare will prevent a Bot Drop from being called in.
• Grenades and headshots will reliably one-shot all light Automatons.
• The grenades used by the incineration corps detonate much sooner and are incendiary.
• Rocket Raiders of this sub faction have their rockets replaced with a strong single shot, similar to the bolt from bunker turrets
• Incineration Corps may be found to be generally more armored, with some troopers who did not have armor, to now have armor.
