The Conflagration Devastator is a medium Automaton icon.png Automaton that is part of the Automaton icon.pngIncineration Corps Icon.png Incineration Corps subfaction, and is a variant of the Heavy Devastator. It is equipped with an incendiary shotgun and a large ballistic shield.

Spawning

Conflagration Devastators can be found on Trivial Difficulty Icon.pngTrivial on planets invaded by the Automaton icon.pngIncineration Corps Icon.png Incineration Corps. Conflagration Devastators can spawn from Bot Drops, within patrols, guarding Automaton Outposts and Objectives, or from Bulk Fabricators.

Starting on Challenging Difficulty Icon.pngChallenging, they can be found guarding Minor Places of Interest.

Behavior

Like Heavy Devastators, Conflagration Devastators will slowly but constantly push if a Helldiver is within their line of sight, firing their incendiary shotgun constantly.

Conflagration Devastators can bash Helldivers with their shield if they're too close, knocking them down. They can also stomp on Helldivers if they are prone.

* Parts with their HP listed as "Main" do not have their own individual health. All damage dealt to these parts is transferred to the enemy's Main health pool.
** Refer to armor values and enemy durability as defined in Damage.
*** The percentage of damage that is applied to the enemy's Main health pool. At 0 HP, the enemy dies. Unless the enemy has constitution, then it will bleedout and die.
**** ExDR means explosive damage resistance, this is a percentage between 0 and 100. If this value is 100%, the part is explosive immune, meaning explosives cannot damage it. Explosions will only directly damage Main health if it is internal.


Tactical Information

Conflagration Devastator

  • The incendiary shots from the Conflagration Devastator's shotgun deal a significant amount of ballistic damage. Combined with its relatively fast fire rate, this Automaton is deadly at close range.
    • Helldivers should immediately go prone upon taking damage to minimize the burn effect, but should quickly reposition to avoid being caught at close range.
  • Unlike Heavy Devastators, Conflagration Devastators do not have a backpack, so Helldivers must pursue other means of destruction.
  • Shooting the Conflagration Devastator's shield with ballistic weaponry will deal no damage to it and the Conflagration Devastator.
  • Explosives can stagger Conflagration Devastators, causing them to lower their shield and leaving themselves open, in addition to dealing some explosive damage.
    • Shooting their shield with explosive weaponry achieves the same effect.
  • Against the Automaton icon.pngIncineration Corps Icon.png Incineration Corps, Helldivers can equip armor with the Inflammable and Acclimated armor passives to reduce their damage from fire.
    • Inflammable and Acclimated Helldivers should still be wary of the Conflagration Devastator's shotgun, as it will not reduce its ballistic damage.

Devastators

  • A significant number of weapons can destroy a Devastator with a single headshot, such as the P-4 Senator and R-63CS Diligence Counter Sniper, so precision is highly rewarded; this is especially so with the Heavy Devastator and their Automaton icon.pngIncineration Corps Icon.png Incineration Corps variants. Their stomach and pelvis is still vulnerable to any weapon, but it is usually unfeasible for Helldivers to aim at due to the ballistic shield.
  • Similar to other Devastators, the Conflagration Devastator's weapon can be shot off, which may be preferable if a Helldiver is unable to land a headshot.
