In horde shooter Back 4 Blood, Supply Points are the in-game currency you gather after completing each level. It’s really important to hoard them since it’s the only way to unlock more cards and build a proper deck through the Supply Lines system to tackle Veteran and Nightmare difficulties. However, to completely unlock all cards (and skins) available in the base game, you will need to accumulate more than 21,000(!) Supply Points, which you can’t easily get just by finishing the game once. Not to mention Turtle Rock Studios is adding more content in upcoming updates. Do not fret, because there are two proven ways to quickly farm Supply Points, whether you’re still in early-game or just need to unlock a couple more cards, in Back 4 Blood.

Back 4 Blood: Quickly Farm Supply Points
Method 1 – After You’ve Unlocked Most Cards
Here is the step-by-step guide to the most well-known Back 4 Blood Supply Points farming trick if you don’t feel like watching the five-minute-long video, prefer to read guides, or just need a quick list of what you have to do:
- Create a Campaign Run.
- On Veteran, pick Act 2 > Job 10:22 > Heralds of the Worm Part 1.
- It’s better to play on Veteran because harder difficulty rewards you with more Supply Points, but Veteran is not as tough as Nightmare.
- Buy a Toolkit so you can unlock the Minigun once you opened the gate. Karlee always starts with a Toolkit, so one player should pick her.
- Spam Grenades to completely melt the Ogre then use Miniguns to clean up the rest of the Ridden and Mutations if needed.
- It should just take you around 2 minutes to get 52 Supply Points.
- Delete Run and repeat as necessary.
To maximize the Grenade damage output, here’s PNDK&M’s deck to quickly beat the Ogre:
- Demolitions Expert: 50% Accessory Damage, -15% Ammo Capacity
- Improvised Explosives: 75% Accessory Damage, -25% Swap Speed
- Bomb Squad: 100% Explosive Damage, 35% Explosive Resistance
- Grenade Training: 25% Accessory Damage
- Double Grenade Pouch: 2 additional Offensive Inventory, -10% Damage Dealt
- Surplus Pouches: -10% Health, +1 Team Offensive Inventory
- Glass Cannon: 25% Damage, -30% Health
- Evasive Action: When you take a hit for 10 or more damage gain 20% Move Speed for 3 seconds
- Olympic Sprinter: 30% Sprint Efficiency, -5% Damage Resistance
- Superior Cardio: 20% Stamina, 20% Sprint Efficiency, 5 Health
- Fleet of Foot: 10% Move Speed, -5% Damage Resistance
- Cross Trainers: 20% Stamina, 20% Stamina Regen, 3% Move Speed
- Energy Drink: 40% Stamina, -5% Damage Resistance
- Dash: 5% Move Speed
Of course, to get some of the better cards like Bomb Squad, Glass Cannon, or Olympic Sprinter (especially Bomb Squad, it’s essential to stagger the Ogre) you need to unlock the later tiers of Supply Lines first. And to unlock them you need Supply Points. Don’t worry, it’s not a catch-22, since it brings us to the second-best way to acquire Supply Points for Back 4 Blood‘s early game.
Method 2 – For Newer Players
Here is the step-by-step guide to the Back 4 Blood second Supply Points farming method if you don’t feel like watching the 4 minutes long video, prefer to read guides, or just need a quick list of what you have to do:
- Create a Campaign Run.
- On Recruit, pick Act 1 > Search and Rescue > Bar Room Blitz level.
- You can play it on Veteran but it’s going to be tough without proper deck build. And the point of this second method is to build up your cards selection from practically nothing, after all.
- Start the Jukebox then hide behind the bar counter. You should have a melee build, check them out in our Deck Build guide.
- Just kill those zombies until the level ends. It should just take you a couple of minutes to get 44 Supply Points.
- Delete Run and repeat as necessary.
