How To Get (& Use) Boosters in Helldivers 2

The elite Helldivers are equipped with a myriad of powerful weapons and stylish armor when spreading democracy all over the galaxy. But your battle prowess can be upgraded even further through using Boosters. Apply them and you’ll land with full ammo, given more Reinforcement points, or even resist limb injuries! These Boosters buffs in Helldivers 2 sound like a one time use item to force monetization, you say? Well, we have good news for you regarding their acquisitions and usages.

Where Can You Get Boosters in Helldivers 2?

Boosters in Helldivers 2 are unlocked by spending Warbond Medals in the Acquisitions menu. Press R on the keyboard or the Square button on a DualShock or DualSense to access the menu when you’re on a Super Destroyer. Afterward, select which battlepass-like Warbond you want to open and which items you want to claim.

Warbond Medals to claim Boosters can be gathered from points of interest on the map and completing Helldivers 2 Missions. While Warbond looks similar to other games limited-time battle or season passes, Arrowhead Studios has promised that Warbonds will never expire.

How to Use a Booster in Helldivers 2 and Is It a One Time Use?

You can select which Booster you want to use when setting up Loadout after picking a planet and Operation to partake in. Select all four Stratagems you want to bring along first, then press on the hexagon icon to the right of the Stratagem boxes. If you have unlocked one or more Helldivers 2 Boosters, you should be able to pick one to fill the slot.

Boosters in Helldivers 2 are not one time use items, they won’t be consumed after you add them to your Loadout and extract out of an Operation successfully. The team-wide passive support skill can be used over and over every time you’re preparing your Loadout before dropping in. As the passive buff instantly affects the whole team and cannot stack, each party member should use different Boosters to share different buffs.
