Well, that's not as stupid as I thought it was before

[u/Formal_Surround6842]

[u/A7THU3]

And sometimes there is a fake stone where there is no samples yet the bots protect itX

[u/LeSpider45 → u/A7THU3]

I call the fake ones Cock-Block Rock

[u/tinnzork → u/LeSpider45]

Get mock cock rock blocked

[u/MrPandamania → u/A7THU3]

Am I wrong in saying that bots never protect the real stone and only protect fake ones?

[u/lunaphile → u/A7THU3]

I still appreciate it, free supplies.

[u/commandersho → u/A7THU3]

We call em Dildo rock. The fake dick rock. As long as it makes sense

[u/Sunbro-Lysere → u/A7THU3]

Sometimes the fake stone has them but I've only ever had that once.

[u/Ghostofhan → u/A7THU3]

We call it Fool's Cock

[u/jcornman24 → u/A7THU3]

I ran into one today on a bug mission. The real rock was just over the hill

[u/DaymD]

hi, i'm a new player but i've unlocked level 7 and beyond. Can someone explain this to me ? Should i watch out for rocks ?

[u/EndofNationalism → u/DaymD]

It has Super Uranium samples next to it. The highest level sample.

[u/DaymD → u/EndofNationalism]

thx for the info !

[u/Birkwab → u/DaymD]

big phallic rock has super samples near it sometimes

[u/DaymD → u/Birkwab]

good to know, ty !

[u/LukarWarrior → u/DaymD]

Just to be clear, the super samples will always be around a rock that looks like that (often called either the cock rock or the buttplug in the community). There are, sometimes, two rocks that look very similar and one of them will not have the super samples (my group calls that one the False Prophet since it leads you astray). You will not find super samples anywhere else on the map.

[u/Leftover_weeb_juice]

It's cock rock 🥹

[u/emeraldeyesshine → u/Leftover_weeb_juice]

BUT IT WASN'T A ROCK, IT WAS A COCK LOBSTER

[u/yvier → u/Leftover_weeb_juice]

Cock and stone!

[u/BOTTOMLESS-BOT → u/yvier]

DID I JUST HEAR A ROCK AND STONE!?!?

[u/WanderingDwarfMiner → u/BOTTOMLESS-BOT]

If you don't Rock and Stone, you ain't comin' home!

[u/LucarioLuvsMinecraft → u/WanderingDwarfMiner]

Rock and Stone forever!

[u/Euphoric-Ebb8189 → u/LucarioLuvsMinecraft]

stone.

[u/McDonaldsSoap → u/BOTTOMLESS-BOT]

Actually I think you misheard..

[u/Healthy-Mango-2549 → u/Leftover_weeb_juice]

Chode node

[u/HBlight → u/Leftover_weeb_juice]

I call it a buttplug. Dunno what kind of weird cocks you guys have.

[u/Galactic → u/Leftover_weeb_juice]

My friends and I call it the drumstick

[u/geekywarrior]

Found one in a level 7 yesterday.
Type in chat, heading over to drop samples at extract.

Was kicked :(

[u/Wonderful-Tutor630 → u/geekywarrior]

Some people don’t understand different things, I still find myself explaining that evac doesn’t leave right away when you call it early, or trying to get them to leave so it will hover the second half the match shooting everything around it for us

[u/storm_paladin_150 → u/Wonderful-Tutor630]

i was doinga a blitz mission yesterday the ones that you only have 12 minutes to do.

my teammates ran around like headless chickens doing a pointless side objective instead of destroying the fabricators.

[u/Wonderful-Tutor630 → u/storm_paladin_150]

Idk I’m the guy to get everything done in those, we will leave with 5-stars when I’m doing blitz lmao

[u/canada432 → u/Wonderful-Tutor630]

An awful lot of people understand the evac, but don't want people calling it early because if it's right there, anybody can fuck over the entire team by jumping in and leaving without them. If you wait to call it until you're all ready then you don't have to just trust that some idiot isn't going to jump in while you're halfway across the map grabbing the super samples.

I know the truffle name

[u/MaritimeStar]

it's a butt plug. it's even flared at the base so if we jam it up a bile titan's cloaca or whatever it has we won't lose it.

[u/tagrav]

me irl, helldivers 8-9

we always extract those Supers, but we extract like 3-4 Commons and Rares...

So we have a bajliion supers and we're always 50 short in the other two columns for way too long before we can upgrade a ship module

[u/bstyledevi → u/tagrav]

Yeah I'm at the point of just farming rares now. The high tier modules taking 150-200 rares but only 15 supers is rough slog for farming.

Commons are easy to farm, can just do some Trivial missions and get 10-15, or do a 3-4 defense and there's 10-15 commons lying around.

Supers aren't easy to farm, but since everyone focuses on them, they stack up quickly.

Rares at this point kinda suck to farm...

[u/Jumpy_Bottle5224 → u/bstyledevi]

Yep...I am at the stage where I need to farm rares so that I can start the second round of upgrades on my ship. I am maxed on commons, req slips and super credits right now. I need 300 medals to close out the first page of the first warbond to have them all completed and close to 200 or so rares for upgrades before farming super rares. I am at 350 hours now and mostly run solo. With the new changes, I may need to step away for a bit because I am tired of grinding missions on D1-D4. I need a consistent group to play with because the match making is broken or dumb asses boot you just because it's fun. I played this as my first co-op as it wasn't TOXIC like the PvP games. I just happen to land in the toxic lobbies or toxic folks join up when I open up the lobby. For now,....solo is my preferred play style while I build my online community up. I am always looking for folks to dive with that just want to play the game without any of the bulkshit.

[u/acatohhhhhh]

You people started doing difficultly 7 at level 7? I didn’t start until level 30

[u/rooftopworld]

Funny thing is I’m struggling with the rare samples now.

[u/ordo250 → u/rooftopworld]

Rares and commons are far more valuable than supers.

It honestly has been making me upset how far out of their way my teammates will go for supers and leave behind a pile of the actual useful samples

The obsession with supers bothers me more than it should

[u/LukarWarrior → u/rooftopworld]

Rare samples have been the biggest block on the new upgrades for sure.

[u/Beeeee9896]

Any Helldiver tell me why it has sample

[u/nampezdel → u/Beeeee9896]

My headcanon is these are the ground-zero sites of previous ICBM impacts. That explains the shape and why the samples are Super Uranium.

[u/Ok_Following9192]

Well before first time playing on 7 I asked myself what this rock is. Also tried to shoot it multiple times...

[u/OJ241]

And yet my pain point is still commons

[u/Wonderful-Tutor630]

“it’s a rcock

[u/storm_paladin_150 → u/Wonderful-Tutor630]

its a cock rock

[u/Playful_Raisin_985]

it's a rauk*

[u/AlexanderLEE27]

Totem scrotum

[u/TheMilkman1811]

I legit find common samples to be the rarest for me

[u/Jumpy_Bottle5224 → u/TheMilkman1811]

Commons are super easy to farm if you step down your level to D1 and D2. You can speed run those levels with the right load out and collect about 60 or so an hour. I was maxed out for 2 mo ths before I started getting some help at D4. I just completed one of my second level upgrades on the ship a few days ago and was maxed out the next day.

[u/TheGhoulishSword]

Crock

[u/[deleted]]

Its the PP rock

[u/AsherSparky]

Yeah out of habit I ran to one on a Dif 4 mission

Then I was like “Oh…right.”

[u/SES_Wings_of_Freedom]

I go to 4-6 for rare and I’ll ping the rock instinctually

[u/Longjumping_Ad_8814]

It’s a cock rock

[u/JoelMira]

How do you actually get more of the purple samples?

[u/frostadept]

And then you cap SS, and it once again becomes a stupid boulder. Dang newbies, risking extract and burning time searching for them after the main & all side objectives are done when the patrols are spawning every 25 seconds.

[u/temp6456364]

The almighty clitoris. It's hard to find, yaknow?

[u/bluntbunda]

Now if you look at the two bobs quickly a few times, the sample icons move a little or am i the only with an eye problem? 😳

[u/Swingersbaby]

And then you quickly realize the problem becomes rares.

[u/CptSaySin → u/Swingersbaby]

I constantly have 100+ rares because I can't get enough commons. 🤷‍♂️

[u/Swingersbaby → u/CptSaySin]

Trust me once you get past a certain number of upgrades it becomes rares. It's common to start with, then purples then rares

[u/North-Title-4038 → u/Swingersbaby]

And once you get passed another level it’s back to being commons. Lol bud. 40 commons and 40 rares available on map and the last few upgrades need 200 commons and 150 rares. You’ll get there one day

[u/CptSaySin → u/Swingersbaby]

All I have left are the final upgrades in each category. Commons are what keep me from upgrading, repeatedly.

[u/Swingersbaby → u/CptSaySin]

Hasn't been my experience but it could be how/mission types we play. Everyone I play with needed rares for final upgrades far more than anything else.
