Anti-Personnel Barrier

A barbwire barrier delivered via airdrop. The barrier is very effective at slowing down incoming enemies and is a semi-permanent solution great for when you need to hold ground for longer periods. A maximum of 5 barriers can be deployed at a time, and they will last for about 5 minutes each. If more than 5 barriers have been deployed, the "oldest" one on the battlefield instantly disappears when a sixth one is dropped. The Anti-Personnel Barrier is part of the Entrenched equipment kit.

In contrast to enemies facing the wall of fire thrown up by the Incendiary Bombs, enemies confronted by an Anti-Personnel Barrier will still attempt to cross it. They will take minor damage (enough to kill weak enemies like Bug Scouts) and start bleeding, slowing their movement down to a crawl. Vehicles such as Cyborg IFVs are immune to its effects.

Helldivers can cross Anti-Personnel Barriers by going prone. Leaping across them and crawling through them are both safe.

Unlock Requirement
