Samples are a key upgrade resource in Helldivers 2, crucial for long-term progression. You need them to unlock ship module upgrades that directly enhance your Stratagems, ship support functions, cooldown efficiency, and even squad-wide abilities. These modules include powerful improvements such as faster reinforcement times, additional Stratagem charges, and stronger orbital support. Without Samples, many of these features remain locked, limiting your tactical options and efficiency in high-difficulty missions. You also won’t be able to unlock end-game performance perks that give your team a critical edge. That’s why efficient and consistent farming is essential for any serious Helldiver aiming to contribute at higher levels of play.
Types of Samples and Where to Find Them
-
Common Samples: Found on difficulty levels 1–3, mostly inside POIs like bunkers and containers.
-
Rare Samples: Appear on difficulties 4–6. Search high-density POI maps and complete side objectives.
-
Super Samples: Only drop on difficulty levels 7–9. Most commonly found in Suicide and Helldive missions, especially in urban biomes. Look for special glowing rock formations known as "Super Sample spires."
Best Methods to Farm Samples Fast
-
Extreme Blitz Missions (Lvl 6): Fast to complete and reward a mix of Common and Rare Samples. A full team can farm 20+ per mission with good POI routing.
-
Suicide Missions (Lvl 7): Best way to farm Super Samples. Expect 3–4 per run if you know where to look and extract safely.
-
Blitz or Search & Destroy on lower levels: Great for Common Samples. Pick missions with small maps and lots of POIs.
-
Use Extract Strategy: Grab all available Samples and extract before completing the mission. You keep everything even if you leave early.
