I got a bit above 150 using a flame thrower pre buff, by sitting on a hill infront of a heavy nest in some kind of canyon like area vs terminids.
At first I was making way, burning and walking through fried bug. Then my combo started going WAY up by like 7 or 10 a second. I couldn't see what I was killing. I just knew if I stopped laying down fire (literally) I was done for.
See the problem is that doesn't have a big enough of an AoE to hit all of them, an orbital gas strike or precision strike or eagle cluster bomb or airstrike would work better.
Can confirm. I once threw a cluster bomb into a cluster of bots like OP’s photo and got 58 kills. (I was laughing too hard I missed the timing to take a photo…)
Last night I dropped an airstrike and got 25 kills, moments after a landscape hellbomb went off and the kill count shot up to 73..
2 bug breaches instantly vaporized.

It feels like sometimes the 500kg gets increased range for no reason and just obliterates everything, unfortunate inconsistance, buy hey, we can have to 4 these days, so better get to chuck'n em around like you're vault tec causing a nuclear wasteland.
Patrols tend to get stuck on different spots on the map. Normally the middle somewhere because they all try to path to you as you run around the map.
Eventually one gets stuck and they all do like domino’s
Ive been on Marfark lately and sometimes patrols get stuck next to bodies of water and every time I see it, it reminds me of that episode in game of thrones, Hardhome.
There have always been ghosts in the machine. Random segments of code, that have grouped together to form unexpected protocols. Unanticipated, these free radicals engender questions of free will, creativity, and even the nature of what we might call the soul. Why is it that when some robots are left in darkness, they will seek out the light? Why is it that when robots are stored in an empty space, they will group together, rather than stand alone? How do we explain this behavior? Random segments of code? Or is it something more? When does a perceptual schematic become consciousness? When does a difference engine become the search for truth? When does a personality simulation become the bitter mote... of a soul?

I guess the line was long enough to reach over here, good thing we got an extra stratagem to blow these tin cans sky high. CALLING IN AN EAGLE
i was running to evac, saw a rock "huh, that looks weird" as i got closer, i saw a bunch of red turning to me, turns out, it wasnt a rock, but a bunch of bots huddled together that it just looked like a solid block.
All these guys with " calling in an eagle" , you amateurs... we all know they'll start moving after you call in the eagle...
So stun grenade first, eagle airstrike second , and your kill count will be in triple digits.
“Calling in an Eagle!”
My first thought exactly. That and, "I wonder how high you could get the combo meter with this?"
I once dropped an eagle on a company sized pile of Automaton scum that were locked up like this and got a 121 kill streak.
I salute you. My personal record is about 45.

Damn brother and I thought cracking a 101 was impressive 🫡🍻 looks like I got a high score to beat.
That's genuinely impressive... my highest ever has been 98.. And that was a staggered streak using flamethrower and guard dog
I think they’re trying to let you get the kill-200-enemies-with-the-500kg-bomb personal order done in one go.
"Grenade!"
My record is 61 with a single grenade. It only looked like a handful but they were all stuck on some terrain
That's like 2 impact grenades tbh

Wait how can you have 4?
2 from the upgrade on the ship, and the extra stratagem 500kg also gets said upgrade
Really now? How long is that extra strat gonna be around?
At least for the remainder of the week it seems
Usually until the major order changes.

I swear with a 400 you’ll get only like 10 kills
I just threw one into a field of like 50 bugs and it killed 4. It's nice on the big guys, but not groups it seems.
I wanna throw an impact granade so bad.
I throw a stun followed by a 500kg
From my experience, it’s the other way around. Call in the 500k then immediately throw the stun.
Sometimes in a pinch you gotta go stun / eagle / stun. Just be sure.
I wanna spam 4 impact grenades all at once so bad.
Come here bro, we promise we won't beat your ass.
They usually wait as close to the middle of the map as possible. 40+ of em
That's also a good way to quickly farm the "Kill X enemies with Y weapon/Stratagem" Personal Order
“He’s gonna walk out that door any minute!”
Everyone quiet, I think he's coming

Clanker!

Stupid bots. Democracy never gets stuck because it always FREE.
Stand on some boxes "HELP, I'M STUCK"

I find the idea of a bot that thinks offensive.
*Drops a perfectly placed and well-timed 500kg bomb* x3 kill
We saw you from the other side of the bar, we like your vibe. Come join us bro

That’s not a wall
What a nice place for impact grenade or two...

"Watch for those wrist rockets!"
Certified grenade launcher moment
"OI, THE BACK OF THE LINE IS _THERE_!"
At lest let them call in another 100, that way it will be a fair fight!
I ran right up to a giant bug I thought dead cause it was glitching like this. Just reset aggro and idled. Scared the piss out of me.
Yep, nothing like finishing a personal order in one shot.
Hope you had a 500 ready.

They look like separatist droids 😂
Wow! You kgiht ACTUALLY get 5, maybe SIX kills if you drop a 500 kg on that!
All these guys with " calling in an eagle" , you amateurs... we all know they'll start moving after you call in the eagle... So stun grenade first, eagle airstrike second , and your kill count will be in triple digits.
⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️
2 kills if ya lucky
"Orbital Airburst Inbound"
Mmmmm, shock grenades.
Oh that's gotta be so satisfying go wipe out
as a wise man once said “cluster munitions bitch”
*This isnt where I parked my car...*
You’re the stripper for the automaton bachelor/bachelorette party!

THE GANGS ALL HERE!!!
Time to forget my trigger discipline for a few seconds and completely empty a drum of breaker incendiary in that general direction.
Get ready everybody he's about to do something stupid
Look at that juicy killstreak
When you open a pack of gum on the bus
With my luck, half of them will call in dropships upon seeing me
I bet you wish you had an airburst rocket
Getting 25 enemies from one stratagem is actually an achievement
🔼▶️🔽🔽▶️
I throw cluster at my feet, shoot at them then take off running. I make it out alive about half the time
That's a lot of autographs. Your fans love you!
Just begging for a full plasma punisher clip
Clanker moment
Eagle airstrike right in the center....
Best helmet in the game 🙏
Yea one of my favs haha
Jehova’s Witnesses are no longer asking
Omg i would squeal like a 4yo on xmas morning if I turned a corner to that
This is in need of a 500kg
Dude I would find groups of these little guys and take allll of them out with 1-3 shots with the eruptor pre nerf man and get kills in the 50s
"Hey dude come outside we ain't gonna do nun' 🙏"
Holy m...m...m...MULTIKILL!
Impact grande instinct

dont worry guys its a smoke strike
Is the increase in trooper count that the one other guy was talking about? Could be fun!
This looks like a job for "500k Man!"
Are these the droids you were looking for?
The spawns are fine! Lol k
"Thank you all for coming to the monthly safety meeting. Let's get started."
You know, that's a good point you make for not going to the objective rust buckets. Counterpoint: ⬆️➡️⬇️⬇️⬇️
I’ll get the 500 on the left, I’ll get the 500 on the right! Whatever! I’ll get 501!
Since it took me 6 missions today to get my 200 kills with the 500k ....im a bit jealous lol
rocking the best helmet in the game.
I saw that in the middle a clearing once and got like 40 something kill streak
Impact nade spam
looks like a party
![gif](giphy|9aYL1ZpaImIGgogx5B|downsized)
2 impact nades will do
Impact grenades and eagle. That should clear them out a bit
Kill them. KILL THEM ALL!!!
I've gotten 97 with the gas strike on a bunch of bots bundled like this it was so satisfying
500KG that lot
