There isn't anything more fun than dropping airstrikes or orbital lasers on giant bugs and advanced bots in Helldivers 2. We all love the feeling of immense satisfaction we get as everything burns in front of us and we emerge victorious. Most of the stratagems that Arrowhead has created are masterpieces of democratic destruction.

Not all of the stratagems are offensive. Sometimes you will need to back away and plan your next attack. When you are mowing down your enemies, you will run out of ammo at some point and need one of your squad to bring in the Supply Pack.

Do not mix up the Supply Pack with the Resupply Pods. The latter are available automatically and do not take up a slot in your loadout. You can call a pod in when you need to resupply but there is a 2-minute cooldown to be aware of. Plus you can easily get swarmed because you have to stay still. That is why having the Supply Pack stratagem is so useful.

The Supply Pack in Helldivers 2 will give you four supply boxes that you can share between yourself and your friends. Each box will refill:

  • Your primary and secondary ammo completely
  • Half the empty mags for your support weapon
  • Two grenades
  • Two stims

To use the Supply Pack, approach your squadmates and you have to press X on PS5 and E on PC. If you want to use it on yourself, you have to press down on your D-Pad or 5 on your keyboard.

Be careful you don’t waste your supply boxes. Your fellow helldivers will have flashing red icons near their names when they are running low on ammo but sometimes it is best to wait until they are completely out before resupplying them. The same applies to yourself.

That’s everything you need to know about using the Supply Pack stratagem in Helldivers 2. Don’t go crazy with your generosity because you will only have four boxes. You will need to make sure you have some ammo to defend yourself because you can’t help anyone when you are dead.
