Tactical Information
Automaton Fabricators can be destroyed via vent by using grenades or explosive primary/support weapons with a minimum demolition force of 20 or higher , from the outside by using attacks with a demolition force of 40+, or repeated strikes with an armor penetration of
Anti-Tank I or higher(i.e. FAF-14 Spear, Eagle Strafing Run, etc.).
- Helldivers are advised to target the upper-parts or the roof of Fabricators when attempting to demolish through the outer shell; the amount of debris and miniature/foundation walls around fabricators often blocks the explosions.
- A GP-20 Ultimatum direct hit, TED-63 Dynamite or a Hellpod will destroy a Fabricator on impact.
- A Helldiver getting out of a Hellpod will be protected from the Fabricator explosion during the deployment animation.
- A Fabricator can also get destroyed by Cannon Turret shots, Reinforced Scout Strider rockets, as well as lucky hits during Meteor Storms and Volcanic Activity hazards.
- Upon destruction the fabricator will explode with a large amount of force; ragdolling, damaging or killing any Enemies or Helldivers nearby.
Bulk Fabricator
The Bulk Fabricator can be found in Automaton Outposts in cities. Instead of deploying Troopers, it will deploy Devastators, Berserkers, Scout Striders, and even Hulks and Tanks. It is much bigger than standard Automaton Fabricators and has much higher height located vent weakpoints.
