The Voteless are horde-based enemies created by the Illuminate, designed to overwhelm Helldivers in close-quarters combat. While individually weak, their strength lies in their sheer numbers and speed, making them a persistent threat on the battlefield.
Spawning
Voteless are the most common Illuminate unit, appearing in patrols, settlements, and enemy reinforcements.
They also frequently emerge from parked Warp Ships, ensuring constant battlefield presence.
Behavior
Voteless charge directly at Helldivers, attacking with claw swipes once within melee range.
If a target is just beyond reach, they can lunge forward to close the gap and strike.
Tactics
- Individually, Voteless pose little threat, as their attacks are weak and require close proximity. However, their true danger comes in numbers, often soaking up fire to protect stronger Illuminate enemies.
- Slightly more durable than other chaff units, such as Scavengers and Troopers.
- Weapons with high fire rates or area-of-effect damage are ideal for clearing out Voteless hordes.
- Poison Gas effects work particularly well against large groups, as they cause confusion among Voteless.
- Defensive Stratagems, such as the A/ARC-3 Tesla Tower and A/FLAM-40 Flame Sentry, are highly effective due to their wide-area damage capabilities.
- Some Voteless may continue crawling and attacking after losing their legs.
