Since the EAT in EAT-17 stands for Expendable Anti-Tank, it is a single-use rocket launcher best used against armoured targets. Once you’ve blasted off a portion of your target’s armour, you and your squad can focus fire on the exposed body part to deal significant damage.
Another great way to use the EAT-17 is to deal with Chargers. With the recent changes made to the tanky Terminid in patch 1.000.102, Chargers can be taken out with a single well-placed shot to the head with the EAT-17.
The rocket launcher is still single-use though, so be sure to keep a steady hand while trying to land this projectile.
How to get the EAT-17 in Helldivers 2
To get the EAT-17, you’ll first need to reach level three. Once you meet this requirement, the weapon can be purchased from the Ship Management computer for 3,000 Requisition Slips.
The EAT-17 isn’t difficult to obtain, so be sure to grab it as soon as you can to give your team some extra firepower. Just remember to land your shots with it.
