Since this title gained unexpected popularity, one of its most remarkable features is its incredibly active community, which is always drawing attention in one way or another. In this case, a player managed to reach level 100 without using the Eagle, one of the famous Helldivers 2 stratagems.
The user who achieved this shared their stats on Reddit, where they have a big zero with this particular weapon. The community is surprised, but at the same time, they don’t understand the need to reach level 100 without using one of the game’s most common stratagems.
Helldivers 2 Stratagems Are the Key to Leveling Up
In any large gaming community, there are different types of players who set their own goals and challenges to make the gaming experience more interesting. This doesn’t seem to be different in Helldivers 2.
Platforms like Reddit take advantage of the various users who showcase their achievements and different challenges to play this game in a much more original way. A player reached level 100 without using a key stratagem even once.
This user showed their large number of kills in the game, highlighting how they never used the famous Eagle stratagem even once. The Reddit community was surprised and asked why they chose this type of challenge to reach such a high level.

The player explained that it all started with their brother, who bought the game and began specializing in the use of certain weapons. 350 hours later, this specialization continued to an almost absurd point.
Something That, While Not Impossible, Is Quite Peculiar

Obviously, the community was surprised to see that a player selected never to use one of the game’s most common stratagems. Clearly, it is possible to progress in terms of kills in Helldivers 2 without the need for this stratagem, but it is quite unusual to surpass so many levels without using it even once.
The users themselves admitted that they always used the orbital strike instead of the Eagle to eliminate enemies.
Many players congratulated this user for staying loyal to a single weapon, such as the orbital strike and its variations.
As a player levels up in this title, they will unlock much more powerful stratagems without needing to go back and use something like the Eagle, so it makes sense why this player reached a point of never using it even once. At level 100, this player has already killed over 89,000 enemies.
Meanwhile, Arrowhead Game Studios presented a new update for Helldivers 2 that will arrive on August 6th, adding all sorts of content to the title. Among the additions will be new types of missions, new enemies, and even new locations to visit in the various missions.
This kind of update was something the community had been requesting for quite some time, and it seems that the studio finally delivered on its promise.
