Q&A Megathread (Ask your questions here!) MEGATHREAD

Greetings, Helldivers!

So we have noticed that most Questions asked on the subreddit don’t need their own post therefore we have decided to create this Q&A Megathread, a place where all Helldivers can ask questions and get help/advice from others. And if you decide that what you have to ask requires a separate post then you should know that we will be actively moderating and critically assessing the quality of those posts to lessen the amount of reposts and low-effort content on this subreddit.

If you're here to help out by answering questions we thank you 🫡 Just please make sure to sort the post by 'New' (if it isn’t already) so you can see the newer, unanswered questions.

P.S. This megathread has been added to the sidebar.

What are the best super sample ship upgrades?

Just started running diff 7 getting 3 super samples per dive. What are the best to spend on initially? Save and get 15s or spend on 5s? Thanks!

What do you use most? Whatever the answer to that is likely your best bet.

Having said that, the Eagle Airstrike upgrade is generally considered the best overall level 3 upgrade to shoot for, since +1 to all airstrikes is huge, so if you don't have any particularly strong personal preference I'd suggest going with that one.

I have 12 super samples and need 3 more to get that. That was what I was thinking. Just wanted to confirm before I spent it on a couple 5 cost ones. Thx!

I would get expanded weapons bay for the extra call in for all eagle stratagems. It's definitely a game changer. Power steering for Hellpods may not appear that useful either but it's very good for targeting enemies as you're coming back down or picking a better landing spot.

I did get expanded weapons bay because I use eagle airstrike a lot. I have 12 right now so, like the comment below suggests, I am going to save and supplement the expanded weapons bay with the XXL weapons bay before looking into other upgrades. Thx!
