The Incendiary MG Devastator is a medium 
Automaton that is part of the 
Incineration Corps subfaction, and is a variant of the Heavy Devastator. It is equipped with an incendiary machine gun and a large ballistic shield.
Spawning
Incendiary MG Devastators can be first found on 
Medium on planets invaded by the Incineration Corps. Incendiary MG Devastators can spawn from Bot Drops, within patrols, guarding Automaton Outposts and Objectives, or from Bulk Fabricators.
Starting on 
Challenging, they can be found guarding Minor Places of Interest.
Behavior
Like Heavy Devastators, Incendiary MG Devastators will slowly but constantly push if a Helldiver is within their line of sight, firing their incendiary machine gun eight times before cooling down.
Incendiary MG 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
Incendiary MG Devastator
- Though its machine gun fires significantly less projectiles and at a slower fire rate than the Heavy Devastator, its incendiary properties make it deadlier, even if only one hits a Helldiver.
- As such, Helldivers should immediately go prone upon taking damage to minimize the burn effect.
- Like Heavy Devastators, they are vulnerable to flanking, especially with the assistance of another Helldiver. Their backpack can be damaged by any weapon and destroying it will also destroy the Heavy Devastator.
- Shooting the Incendiary MG Devastator's shield with ballistic weaponry will deal no damage to it and the Incendiary MG Devastator.
- Explosives can stagger Incendiary MG Devastators, causing them to flail 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 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 Incendiary MG Devastator's machine gun, 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 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 Incendiary MG Devastator's weapon can be shot off, which may be preferable if a Helldiver is unable to land a headshot.
