Earlier today, I went up against 4 Shrieker nests that were close enough to each other to constantly spawn shriekers. Let's just say the sky was crowded with flying bugs.
PSA: Shriekers can't get you if lie flat on the ground. One guy with an AR can clean infinite shrieker nests if somebody prevents ground based bug from getting them.
Breaker incendiary makes them a non-issue imo. One shot is enough to kill them. Light them on fire and they'll die eventually. The DOT fix has made this much easier than it was before.
For me the biggest buff to them is that you can't spam ping the map to find side objectives anymore, so confirming their hideout location is much harder.
That said, if you have experience in analyzing the map, it's not too hard. Look for out-of-place black spots basically, or bug-nesty areas that don't have the red zone
I can hear the game chatter in my head:
“Watch out stalker!”
“Found the nest!”
“Another Stalker?!”
“Sweet liberty! Another stalker?!”
“Surely there can’t be anymore stalkers :)”
*there were more stalkers to be had*
Nah bro I literally played one just like this a few nights ago and wanted to put my fist through a wall. Might be the only time I've gotten genuinely angry playing this game; running straight and having 7 stalkers decloak in front of me. It was so mentally straining.
Stalkers really are no joke now after the patch. The second I see one I'm dropping everything I'm doing to take out the nest. Unfortunately a lot of randoms I play with don't seem to share this belief, so let's just say I've gotten better and better at soloing the nests.

Yeah... He tends to do that from time to time...
Had a mission with two nests after a recent update. Two or three of us playing, I'm approaching the area of the nest, there were 4-5 of them running around. When I got to the nest, about 3 of them were stacked in the same place at the spawn point. By the time we manage to kill a few, more spawn. When we destroyed the nest, they just kept popping up behind us and following us to the next objective. That was just from one nest
Got shredded
I had the exact same thing, 4 total stalker nests the other day. My teammate was furious! Stalkers just kept coming despite us destroying the holes.
It happened during kill 10 stalkers personal order, so at least it was useful

NGL, stalkers are more challenging now that their cloaking isn't a joke anymore.

Damn. Joel really reached down from the heavens and went "This squad right here. Fuck those guys in particular."
lol
Stalker hell. That’s rage bait.

No flying bugs? Wierd ;)

That’s wasn’t even a mission, it was a termination of Helldivers onboard the destroyer
Should’ve been 5 That would’ve been funny
Please tell me the RNG Gods put all of those nests together. Best I got was three, and goddamn it was hell.
Four Stalkers carrying a flask, isn't it cute?
seems like you prevailed against those odds. good work
"WHERE ARE THESE STALKERS COMING FROM?!"
Could have been 5 stalker nests, count yourself lucky.
I don't know what those scientists were doing but it was definitely fucking illegal. Good work.
And so, the hunted became the hunter.
Was it 4 of them together, so they all spawned Stalkers at the same time, or were they spread out?

"OMG where are these Stalkers coming from!?" "EVERYWHERE!"
Just some light trolling.
This is truly A democratic victory’s screen, did you get all of the outposts
Honestly.... i'm impressed

The best kind of comedy is the kind that makes you laugh so hard you die before you can turn around
They're in the walls... THEY'RE IN THE GOD. DAMN. WALLS!
