You have delivered democracy to the Terminids and Automatons with guns, explosives, and mechs in Helldivers 2, but what they fear the most is none other than the K-2 Throwing Knife. With the perfect timing and trajectory, the throwing knife can deal devasting damage on enemy weak spots. Here is how you can unlock and use the Throwing Knife in Helldivers 2.
How To Unlock K-2 Throwing Knife In Helldivers 2
The K-2 Throwing Knife is a Throwable in Helldivers 2 that can be unlocked with 60 Medals on Page 3 of the Viper Commandos Warbond which costs 1,000 Super Credits. However since you will need to spend a good chunk of Medals to reach Page 3, you will require more Medals to be spent in total.
With the potential K-2 Throwing Knife has, it can be worth spending all those Medals to get to Page 3 and unlock it but if you want to try it and not actually use it as part of your main loadout, you are better off saving your hard earned Medals for something else. It is a good option if you are going for stealth as it makes no noise like other explosive throwables.
How To Use K-2 Throwing Knife Effectively in Helldivers 2
Here are some tips and tricks to make effective use of the K-2 Throwing Knife in Helldivers 2:
- The K-2 Throwing Knife has good durability damage for a Throwable, using it to finish off bigger enemies like the Stalker by hitting the weak spots is a good tactic.
- One of the main reasons Helldivers like to equip the K-2 Throwing Knife is the fact that it can 4-shot a charger on its leg. Make sure you consistently hit the same leg with 4 Throwing Knives to get an easy kill.
- Headshots with the K-2 Throwing Knife do the most damage and can be used when your Primary is in reload to fend off some of the medium-sized enemies.
While the K-2 Throwing Knife in Helldivers 2 can be solid Throwable, its potential is limited to certain situations. Terminid enemies are weaker, so try not to bring it to a gunfight with the Automatons.
