Wondering how to use the supply pack in Helldivers 2? While most stratagems in the game are about dishing out the damage, you can’t do much if you’re out of ammo. That’s why having a supply pack to replenish your stocks on the go can be a lifesaver

Make sure you’ve got the Helldivers 2 best weapons and Helldivers 2 best armor equipped so you can tear through those Terminid and Automaton swarms. For now though, let’s go through how to use the supply pack in Helldivers 2, both on yourself and on teammates.

The supply pack stratagem can be bought from the Ship Management menu for only 4,000 Requisition Slips. Once you’ve bought it, all you need to do is equip it to your stratagem bar when you’re preparing to drop down for a mission.

How to use supply pack in Helldivers 2

When you’re on a planet, use your stratagems to call down the supply pack as you would with any other stratagem. Once it lands, head over and collect it to put the supply pack on your Helldiver’s back. Now you’ve got it, you can replenish your ammo whenever you want.

It doesn’t just resupply ammo, either. Using your supply pack will also replenish your stims and grenades, making it just as if you’ve just left your pod for the first time. Be aware, however, that it will not resupply your one-time use stratagems.

Using supply pack on yourself

To use the supply pack on yourself, all you need to do is press the ‘E’ key on keyboards, or hit down on the D-pad if you’re playing with a controller. That’s all you need to do. Assuming you don’t have a full mag already, you’ll fully replenish your ammo and can get right back to the killing.

Alex’s Advice

Use your supply pack sparingly. You only get 4 uses per pack, so there’s no point using it when you’ve only used one magazine. Wait until you really need it and it will go a long way.

Using supply pack on teammates

To use your supply pack on your teammates, walk up right next to the Helldiver you want to resupply. Press the ‘E’ key on your keyboard, ‘A’ on Xbox controllers, or ‘X’ on PlayStation controllers.
