When it comes to your loadouts in Helldivers 2, you may have noticed an empty slot to the right of your stratagems. This slot is meant for Boosters. Today, we’re going to discuss how to get and use boosters in Helldivers 2.
How to Get Boosters in Helldivers 2
You’ll be able to find and earn your first Booster on page 3 of the Helldivers Mobilize! Warbond. Like all other boosters, this booster grants your entire party a buff. Every member of your squad is also encouraged to use a different booster since their effects don’t stack. That said, for 15 medals, your first booster will allow your team to spawn with full ammo, grenades, and stims for you and your teammates. This also applies to redeployments when one of you dies, as well.
You can find your Warbonds by being in your ship and pressing R or X/Square on the controller. This brings up the Acquisition Center. Inside these Warbonds are the standard pages you would find in most battle pass systems. The only difference here is that you need to spend a certain amount of medals earned in-game to unlock further pages by an increasing amount.
How to Use Boosters in Helldivers 2
Once you have claimed a booster from a Warbond, it will be immediately available to equip during the loadout period before the launch of each mission. Just communicate with your team about which person is equipping which booster. Later in your Helldivers 2 career, you’ll unlock other boosters that give everyone more limb health, enhance everyone’s stamina and stamina regen, and even make traversing difficult terrain easier.
Helldivers 2 allows you to unlock a large variety of Stratagems, weapons, sidearms, and other cosmetics. That isn’t even mentioning the permanent ship upgrades, either. Beyond that, though, most of the character-based unlocks come from the game’s Warbond system. The Warbonds in Helldivers 2 act as battle passes, and there isn’t any expiration date for them.
