Shrieker is a Terminid Enemy in Helldivers 2.
Shrieker start spawning at unknown difficulty if Shrieker Nest spawned on the Map. Those are flying enemies and they pose a serious threat since they can attack from the sky.
If planet has a Shrieker nest Shriekers will start spawning, there.
Shrieker Abilities and Mechanics[edit | edit source]
Shrieker have unique flying mechanics and can be a pain to fight with because of their speed, maneuverability and ignoring the terrain.
Shrieker skillset includes following attacks:
Shrieker Dive[edit | edit source]
Shrieker Dives from the sky to take out a helldiver.
If hit by this attack, helldiver will most likely be killed. Also taking out Shrieker mid-dive and being hit by its dead body kills helldivers too through physics and ragdoll effects.
How to Counter Shrieker Dive Attack
- Sprinting sideways will allow to evade Shrieker Dive
Shrieker Fighting Tips[edit | edit source]
Shrieker can be an annoying enemy to fight because of their flying ability.
- Shoot the Shriekers in the head for maximum damage. Sprint sideways to dodge the attacks.
- Breaker Incendiary SHotgun is extremely good at eliminating Shrieker. A single pellet will burn and kill a Shrieker.
- Dead Shrieker can still kill helldiver with a collision effect.
Machine Gun Sentry is an effective way to clear out flying Shriekers- Its possible to get rid of Shrieker Nest with
Autocannon or 
Expendable Anti-Tank from long range. Same way as helldivers getting rid of Spore Spewers. - Shrieker Nests can be efficiently destroyed by two Rockets, nine Autocannon shots or Orbital 380MM HE.
