    I leave that one for the lower level players to take so they can feel like they’re contributing to that part.

    Also, I die a lot.

      I do the same thing. And then cringe when they take something else like decreased extract time.

        What?! Extraction isn’t even required for the mission to count as successful!

        Such undemocratic inefficiency.

          Same. I thought I was being a cool guy sharing my personal resupply with the team.

    I’m so used to playing with that booster on that it feels awful to not get full inventory on respawn

        Yeah if no one runs the booster, I immediately call in the resupply when we land. 2 grenades and stims is some bullshit.

      I mean, 20 respawns, 4 players…

      In a 30 minute match you’re getting a single free supply pack every five minutes. Max benefit averages over the team if you use all respawns.

      There’s better options.

      It’s almost always better to take something consistent than something that only helps after a certain thing happens.

    Just like in the Magic the Gathering health is a resource, in Helldivers lives are a resource and I like to spend that resource.

    I find it’s worth taking. There aren’t a lot of good boosters out there. So if the stamina and health ones are covered I’ll take this one. Missing out on 2 stims and 2 nades kind of hurts. And if you drop in hot or get reinforced in the middle of a firefight having those extra 2 stims can be enough to get out without dying again. Especially with random because most of the time that resupply will be on CD because some chuckfuck decided to go solo and call in resupplies who knows where.

      I’m sorry I decided to take that, the grenade pistol, and the Auto cannon and have permanently rag-dolled you… But I like explosions!

    The game is all about movement so the must haves are always:

    Stamina : Go faster longer

    Muscle Enhancement: Go faster in more places

    Vitality : Don’t take as much limb damage, live longer
