Question about Warbonds

[Sir Oinksalot]

I know they're going to release a new Warbond every month. But will there be a premium and free Warbond or will it only be premium Warbonds or only free Warbond? Or will it be a mix of both? Thanks

Technically, all warbonds can be attained without spending real currency. While warbonds cost Supercredits, you can loot supercredits from POIs (points of interest), usually +10 per stack. Rarely they come in +100 stacks. If you play regularly and you or your teammates are pretty good about checking out POIs, you'll naturally accrue supercredits.

Looks like from now on, besides the first warbond, all warbonds will be premium.

That doesn't mean much because you can unlock premium warbonds relatively easily by picking up supercredits in the missions. If anyone on the team grabs supercredits, it's given to all helldivers on the spot.

We don't know. I assume all future Warbonds will cost Super Credits.

[Sir Oinksalot]

Thanks for all the feedback guys. It sounds like I've gotta start stashing up my Super Credits

So far they have all cost 1000 super credits to unlock. I play only about 2 hours a day during the week and a bit more on weekends and I have had no problems getting enough super credits diving with only randoms. No grinding, just pickups during whatever missions I happen to be on.

So there's the Helldivers Mobilize War Bond, which is the free one everybody gets and is pretty much all the "base game" stuff. If you got the Super Citizen version of the game then the first premium War Bond is also "free".

After that, they've released two more premium war bonds, with the currently stated plan being to release a new war bond every month. Time will tell how long that last. As for if all of them will be premium, I'm going with a 95% yes as far as regular monthly war bonds go.

I have no basis on this but it wouldn't surprise me if a "Liberty Day" War Bond (so late October) was released for free, or maybe a one year anniversary.

Super Credits aren't that hard to get in game with just regular play, just got to hit up all the points of interest on a map. If you have some friends, just go into difficulty 3 missions and cover the whole map. Everybody will earn super credits, as well as whatever medals you find, you won't have to fight all the time to get to the points of interest, and there's no rare samples to take up super credit spawns. And if you're playing with friends then you can open up the bunkers.

Now the real kicker is if the war bonds are even worth the effort/cash to get them.
