The new Major Order in Helldivers 2 asks you to choose between liberating Choohe or Penta, but which planet should you opt for?
Choohe and Penta are two planets belonging to the Lacaille Sector and the ongoingMajor Orderin Helldivers 2 asks you to liberate either one of them. The primary reason is that theAutomatonsare moving quickly and its trapped citizens and weaponry need to be saved.
However, the real convincing element is that liberating either of these two planets comes with a choice, you’ll receive either the MD-17 Anti-Tank Mines or the RL-77 Airburst Rocket Launcher depending on the planet you choose to save first. That’s because only theStratagemon the planet you liberate first can be saved.
But the burning question is – which planet should you go for?
Choohe or Penta: Which planet should you liberate in Helldivers 2?
In our opinion,liberating Pentamakes more sense in the new Helldivers 2 Major Order. As a reward, you get theRL-77 Airburst Rocket Launcher Stratagemafter saving the planet.
The nature of the RL-77 Airburst Rocket Launcher makes it ideal for dealing with multiple small bugs or enemies at once. Since it deploys a bunch of bomblets that explode on contact, enemies that have low HP will get wiped at once.
On top of this, the majority of the community seems to be opting towards Penta, meaning the planet should end up liberating first with the help of more players. You’ll just need to liberate Lesath before reaching Penta.
At the time of writing, you have over 2 days to get either of these twoStratagems, so make sure you are not delaying your Democratic duties.
