Helldivers 2 Stratagems and Extraction
Loadouts by faction, when to run, and how to keep samples on the pelican.
Faction tools
Bots punish bad cover and demand anti-armor. Bugs punish standing still. Illuminate / other factions need their own answers — read the warbond, don't copy a bug loadout blindly.
Samples
Commons on the ground, rares in harder missions. Dead players drop them; someone has to pick up before extract.
Extract
Call it when mains are done. Holding for a side objective while the timer is gone is how you donate a full backpack.
Friendly fire
Check the throw arc. Sentinels face away from the team. If you team-kill, reinforce immediately — it is faster than typing sorry.
