What is the best Premium Warbond out right now in Helldivers 2? Explained

If you have saved up a thousand Super Credits in Helldivers 2 and are torn between which Premium Warbond is the best one, we can help you out. With three currently in the store right now alongside the base-game one, here’s how you can get the best bang for your cred.

Best Premium Warbond out right now in Helldivers 2

Right now, the best Premium Warbond in Helldivers 2 has to be the Steeled Veterans Warbond. If you bought the Super Citizen Edition, this comes bundled in with it. 

What makes this Warbond better than the other ones is that it has one of the best grenades and primary weapons in the game. The G-10 Incendiary and Breaker Incendiary are godsends against the Terminids. 

To break it down, the Incendiary grenade has a huge blast radius that can melt groups of medium and light enemies so that it can help you focus on larger threats like Shriekers, Chargers, and Bile Titans. It can also destroy bug holes when tossed. 

Pair that with the Incendiary Breaker, and it’s an unstoppable gun against the same types of enemies if they get too close. You can then save the slot for a support weapon to deal with heavies. 

These weapons also work quite well against Automatons, especially the grenade. If you have a hard time getting behind Scout Striders and Shield-wielding Devastators, the Incendiaries can kill them with ease. 

The other weapons in Steeled Veterans aren’t too shabby, either. The P-4 Senator pistol, in particular, isn’t too bad if you’re a good shot. There’s just an overall greater advantage starting off with this or buying this if you barely hit 1k Super Credits. 

The next best Warbond

Currently, if you already have the Steeled Veterans Warbond or want something else, the next best one has to be the Democratic Detonation one. 

The star of the show is the R-36 Eruptor DMR. It’s very powerful and can take on most types of enemies, even the heavies, with ease. It can also destroy bug holes, Spore Spewers, and Automaton Fabricators with a well-placed shot. Just make sure not to use it at close range or you will blow yourself up.

Some standouts aside from this are the Expert Extraction Pilot booster, which reduces the time it takes before Pelican 1 lands during extraction. The grenade pistol is also an excellent alternative to the R-36 as it can be used to destroy bug holes and fabricators with a well-placed shot. It’s not as powerful, but has a lot of utility to free up a slot for a different primary and grenade.
