I really like these demolishers because they made me actually sit and think about combat strategy instead of just "more gun, more damage". After I discovered they're hella weak to poison I set up a simple poison capsule factory and stockpiled a bunch. Took about 100 to take down my first demolisher, just had it running in circles through a dense cloud.
getting there with uranium doesn't make you kill them, I got there with uranium cannon shell, uranium ammo, and they take 0 damage, you have to have shooting speed at high level then physical damage as well, or a gazilion amount of turrets
@@o0tommyzzzzz0o I'm not saying to not use uranium, just saying that alone is not enough, its mandatory to have shooting speed for cannon shells if you want to do damage. I got there with shooting speed, but was only for normal weapons, cannon shell take bonus only for high level of shooting speed, so it just don't do damage
Noticed an even easier way: just calmly place turrets in any lactation. That will attract a worm and it will go straight to the turrets but with a low speed and without lava burps.
If you hold an item and press Z, you drop a single unit of this item. If you hover your cursor over the structure that can accept this item, it drops it into the inventory instead of the ground.
I would greatly recommend to play the tutorial levels and read the tips and tricks, you will learn massive amounts of knowledge to help you utilize the game's features better and mitigate annoyances. The 2.0 update has added many cool new things too, some of which are specifically to help with large or independent bases.
@tomsterbg8130 lol I have over 2,000 hours in the game, I just hadn't thought about adding one by one to an inventory. It's one of those things that I do on the ground all the time, but totally forgot that I could do it into a building one by one.
Thanks for this purely engineering solution. A few bots + this great feature of 2.0 should make this setup in a couple of click ua-cam.com/video/oRCVRXmgnd/v-deo.html
> watches him put in ammo by dropping it like a pre-2.0 loser somebody tell him you can have robos from your personal roboport deliver ammo to turrets now.
Oh, I found a video that explains it: ua-cam.com/video/oRCVRXmgndA/v-deo.html Put a ghost down and in map mode you can add ammo to the ghost and then blueprint it.
Still slower than singledropping, you either request 1 at a time (right clicking ghosted ammo 1-20 times) per individual turret window, or a full stack of 100 for each turret. If you just need 1-10 ammo in each then z-method is quicker.
"...and if that don't work, use more gun."

I was thinking to restart because I went to vulcanus without urnaium until watched this strategy. Thanks buddy! You saved my run
You can still build a rocket and get back to nauvis without killing any worms.

@@Sworn973 but most of the strategy I found are uranium weapons
@@sawyermccall2370 yes but I ran out of resources only for science in there. Misplay D:

Any what now?
any what???

Nice. I ended up sending a tank and the uranium piercing shells. They make short work of a small demolisher.
You can stand farther away so it doesn't do it's fissure attack and destroy your turrets.
Hundreds of landmines works pretty well too
nothings beat the 4 nuclear reactor setup nice vid !
this is not a 4 nuclear reactor setup btw...
@@sergiopang7837 yes i could tell with the 50 gun turrets i was just pointingout my fav method of killing small demolisher
@@mathismarcelle9277 which, I guess, does not involve 50 gun turrets...
@@hadson2460 no way !!! how could you tell are you a medium or something ?
@@mathismarcelle9277
12-15 rounds of uranium for a tank and no small destroyers
just a tank and uranium shells (not the explosive ones) will also do the trick with a 5-6 shots
tank: just exists
U can just stack poison in one place and let him come in to the cloud, I took me about 100 of them to kill one
way more effort than just bringing some uranium cannon shells in a tank.
I just used uranium cannon shells with all the upgrades and one shot them
Baja Blast is the way.
can you upload a video for a small demolisher expensive and difficult kill next, ideally with uranium
How were you adding only one mag at a time to each gun?
grab magazine and point to a turret, hold z and drag to other turrets
If you hold an item and press Z, you drop a single unit of this item. If you hover your cursor over the structure that can accept this item, it drops it into the inventory instead of the ground.
THANK YOU!

Tesla turrets are hella effective against demolishers as well.
big problems require big constructions
Or you can just use 1 atomic bomb for small demolisher. Just take 100 light uranium to Vulcanus.
Simplest way to kill a big worm? More Dakka.
I just made 15 artillery and 15 shells use manual targetting then spam all 15
The point is to kill it before making the science, not to manually mine tungsten to unlock artillery
@@javierguerrero9910 ohhhh I see
Same
how to you fill up guns using one unit of ammo?
taking the ammo and hold z then slide over turrets
Is this without yellow science upgrade?
@@javierguerrero9910 should be able to do it without yellow, or you can add landmines to guarantee the kill.
You can do without purple or yellow science, just need a lot of turrets, poison optional
Spam it with tank canon shells, later on if you can ship uranium canon shells from Nauvis even better
non uranium tank shell alone sadly wont work 😢
@@sdfPZXCDon't use explosive ones, also aim for the head
Doesn't work if you're pre-yellow/purple science since fire rate and damage is too low
but it might work with later upgrades
THAAANKS bro i dont know how it works but thanks so very much because he has a very much Health but you help me thanks so much
He has no poison Resistance and each segment counts as an entity that can take damage which counts towards over all health.
Исследовал огнестрельный урон на +200%. Танк и урановые снаряды. Червь отъезжает на 4й подаче.
Я сделал тоже самое ток до +400 докачал, улетает от 3 урановых зарядов, а если и по качеству редким выстрелить то и 2 хватит
Первое мнение об этом враге было слишком обманчиво, он оказался довольно слабым
this one is without uranium tho
Я просто с нависа притащил материалы для ядерной боеголовки...

bro needs evenly distribute.... spending 90% of the video loading those turrets .lmao
You can also blueprint ammo into turrets
nuclear bomb is a way more cooler
sadly you can't take nuclear rocket anywhere exept nauvis :(
@mathismarcelle9277 why? You can launch 5 rockets with 20 uranium235 on each!
