| ~ Official Description |
The Acidic Desert is one of the few possible biomes a planet may have in Helldivers 2.
Environment[ | ]
Acidic Deserts feature distinctive greenish sand dunes that are occasionally interrupted by tall, imposing brown rock plateaus that tower over the horizon. In between plateaus, one may find occasional pools, possibly hot springs, and certain glowing shrubberies and small bushes.
While rare, it is possible for Helldivers to get stratagems stuck on top of nearby plateaus if they are calling them too close to them, if not directly beneath them. This can become particularly problematic should one need to call certain mission critical stratagems, such as Hellbombs or SSSD Drives, into an objective that is particularly close to one of these plateaus.
It is heavily advised to always keep some distance from enemies when fighting on these types of planets, as the Acid Storms that regularly occur weaken the armour of both enemies and Helldivers alike, making it easier to shoot through.
Environmental Conditions[ | ]
- Acid Storms: Corrosive acid storms temporarily reduce armour effectiveness for both enemy and friendly units.
