Best Armor Mods for Rangers: Baldur’s Gate 3 (2025)

Best Armor Mods for Rangers: Baldur’s Gate 3 (2025)

This is part of our series where we will dig up the best mods for every class in Baldur’s Gate 3, including the official in-game BG3 mod page, Nexus Mods, and the occasional Patreon when a mod author decides to publish an awesome set there.
I’m very deep into roleplaying. That means every companion gets dressed properly and no one is allowed to run around Faerûn wearing something that doesn’t fit their class fantasy.

Because of this, I’ve spent an ungodly number of hours digging through the best BG3 armor mods for rangers and every other class I play, or assign to my companions. Whether you’re roleplaying a classic bow-focused ranger, a dual-wielding tracker, or something heavier and more cursed, there’s something here for you.

1. Witcher 3 ranger armor mods

We are gonna start right away with 3 mods from one of my favorite games… Witcher 3. You get three sets from the game: Viper (Geralt’s canon set), Manticore, and Bear. Witchers are basically 90% Rangers, and now you can look like them while playing your favorite class.

Also, below are some pics to see how they look, as well as details on the body types they work on.

Viper school set:

1.3. Witcher 3 armor mods for BG3

2. Monster Hunter set

Link to mod: NexusMods

This is the starting set from a new Monster Hunter game. Even though it’s a starter armor, it’s my favorite set from that game, and it fits the Ranger class perfectly with its dark green colors, and a hoodie.l set:

2. Monster hunter BG3 armor mods

Works on body type 1 and 2.

3. Sylvanas armor

Link to mod: NexusMods

We move to the biggest MMO of all time, World of Warcraft, with Sylvanas’s armor when she was a high elf RANGER! (get it?) In Quel Thalas. Looks awesome, fits high elves perfectly. 

3. Threads of Azeroth BG3 armor mods

Works on body type 1.

4. Definition armor

Link to mod: NexusMods

This armor is a combination of vanilla armors, put together into a wonderful new set. There are too many sets here for us to try to explain them all, so hop on the mod page and see if there is anything you like.

5. Arsipsik Collection 

Link to mod: NexusMods

There are several armor pieces in this mod that could work on a lot of different classes, like barbarians (since the chest piece is taken from God of War). 

However, these armors are rugged enough to fit your ranger as well, especially the hood with a cape. Different armors from this mod work on different body types, but all of them work on body type 2.

6. Leathers of the vagabond

Link to mod: NexusMods

For all the female rangers who want to feel sexy, this leather armor set with throwing knives hanging on every belt is perfect. It especially fits elves and drows because it just has that vice to it.

6. Leathers of the vagabonds BG3 rangers armor mod

Works on all body types.

7.  Black hand armor

Link to mod: NexusMods

Now, this armor is one of my favorites because it basically makes you look like a medieval Batman.  The hood also makes your eyes glow red, which is a nice touch. All and all, an amazing armor mod for rangers that doesn’t leave my mod list.

7. Blackhand BG3 armor mod for rangers

Works on all body types.

8.  Guts armor set

Link to mod: Mods.io

I know Guts is mostly a fighter, but later into his black swordsman era he kinda’ multi-classes into a ranger, don’t you think? True to lore, this set has throwing knives and a hand crossbow. 
So if you want to RP a heavy armored melee ranger, download this BG3 armor mod, you won’t regret it. Ready to hunt demons? 

8. Guts Berserk BG3 armour mod for rangers (1)

9. Bloodborne armor set

Link to mod: Patreon (free)

It’s a damn hunter armor set from Bloodborne. I don’t have to say anything more.

9. Bloodborne armor set

10. Traveler’s backpacks

Link to mod: Patreon (free)

The last thing every ranger needs when heading into the wild is a proper backpack. This BG3 armor mod lets you layer backpacks using the cloak slot, and these are the best-looking ones in my humble opinion. The version with the knife and all the tools feels especially right for a ranger.

10. Traveler backpacks - BG3 ranger armor mods

11. Skirbie’s Death Archer

Link to mod: Mod.io

This last one is a full set of armor, weapons, and camp clothing for Death Archers. This is a perfect ranger armor set that is fully dyeable (and it dyes beautifully since we’re on the topic). 

11. Death archer set BG3 rangers mod

Final thoughts…

Rangers in Baldur’s Gate 3 are in a weirdly great spot when it comes to armor mods. You can lean fully into the classic fantasy tracker look, borrow from other franchises like The Witcher or Bloodborne, or push into heavier, almost fighter-style territory if that’s your thing.

I’ll keep updating this list as new BG3 ranger armor mods show up, so if you’ve found a set that deserves a spot here, chances are we want to see it too. Happy hunting. Also, check out my recommendations for barbarian, and rogue mods, while you’re at it. 

Best Armor Mods for Rogues: Baldur’s Gate 3 (2025)

Best Armor Mods for Rogues: Baldur’s Gate 3 (2025)

Rogues in Baldur’s Gate 3 live and die by presentation. If you’re going to stab someone in the back, you might as well look good doing it. This article is part of our ongoing series where we dig up the best mods for every BG3 class, pulled from the in-game mod page, Nexus Mods, and the occasional Patreon rabbit hole.

I’ve spent an unreasonable amount of time testing BG3 rogue armor mods that actually fit how rogues play and feel in-game. These are rogue armor mods BG3 players can roleplay with, whether you’re running a classic thief, a pirate, a swashbuckler, or just dressing Astarion better than the game ever intended.

1. Aveline set

Link to mod: NexusMods

Right off the bat, we start with the Aveline set from Assassin’s Creed. If you want to roleplay as a female assassin or a pirate, this set would fit you perfectly.

1. Aveline Rogue armor set mod BG3

Works on body type 1.

2. Lady Maria set

Link to mod: Patreon (free)

It’s a Lady Maria set from Bloodborne. Fully dyeable. Need I say more?

2. Lady Maria BG3 armor mod for rogues

Works on body type 1.

3. Rogue set

Link to mod: Patreon

This set is literally called the Rogue set, so if it doesn’t belong on this list of BG3 rogue armor mods, I don’t know what else does. The look on the leather is really high quality, and the fur cape alone is enough to download this and put it on your list.
Worth noting are also the facts that the pieces work very well with other armor mods, and that the mod also comes with its special “rogue” leather armor dyes.

3. Rogue set armor mod for BG3

Works on body type 1.

4. Pino Drip

Link to mod: Patreon

This is one of those mods with too many armor sets to count. All of them have that Renaissance drip aesthetic, with goggles and top hats and cool suits.

4. Pino Drip Baldur's Gate 3 armor mod

Works on body type 2.

5. Midnight Huntress

Link to mod: Patreon

Even though the set is called Midnight Huntress, I think it still fits rogues perfectly.

It’s a leathery set with a nice overcoat that hangs over your shoulders, and a nice set of round glasses as a cherry on top to finish the look.

5. Midnight Huntress armor mod for Rogues BG3

6. Noctis Venator set

Link to mod: Patreon

My female buddy likes to dress up Astarion in this outfit every playthrough and goon over him. I don’t know about Astarion’s part, but I am gooning over this outfit myself. It’s incredibly high quality and looks like an armor a Bloodborne hunter would wear after he killed every single monster in the nightmare.

6. Noctis Venator BG3 armor mod for rogues

7. Leonhart set

Link to mod: Patreon

This set looks like something a pirate captain would wear after he looted 100 other ships, made millions off gold, and is ready to retire. And now you can too.

7. Leonhart set BG3 armor mod

8. Spellblade set

Link to mod: Patreon

Even though this armor would fit great for bards, warlocks, or wizards, I think it also fits perfectly for you, arcane tricksters. With a huge hat and embellished sleeves, it’s a perfect fit for spell-flinging rogues.

8. Spellblade set for rogues BG3

9. V for Vendetta

Link to mod: NexusMods

Everyone knows V, and if you don’t, stop reading and go watch the movie right now. This armor is a perfect replica of the clothes V wears, including his mask, hat and daggers on the hips.

9. V for Vendetta armor mod for BG3

10. Plague doctor set

Link to mod: Patreon

This set is a liberal interpretation of Plague doctor outfits from the medieval period. I especially like the shoulder belt with all the potions and vials. You can roleplay being a rogue alchemist who uses poisons on his weapons.

10. Plague doctor armor set mod Baldur's Gate

11. PK clothes and armor

Link to mod: NexusMods

One more of those who have more sets in a single mod than this whole article. It’s a black, cloaked version of an armor set that Minsc wears, and it fits perfectly for your rogue character. It also comes with variants for camp attire.

11. PK clothes and armors for rogues

12. Drow weaponry fencer

Link to mod: NexusMods

This mod adds a full drow fencer-style set with custom models and textures, and it looks exactly like something a high-end Underdark assassin would wear. The pieces are dyeable, come with customization options, and are acquired in more immersive ways.

It works best on female body type 1 (elf, half-elf, drow, human, tiefling), with a few items available for male body type 2. 

12. Drow Weaponry mod for Baldur's Gate 3

13. Witcher outfits: Dettlaf

Link to mod: NexusMods

This is Dettlaff’s armor set from The Witcher, plain and simple. Dark, dramatic, and very on-brand for a rogue that leans more assassin than street thief. The mod adds four outfits, along with fingerless gloves and boots.

13. Witcher 3 Dettlaff outfit mod BG3

Works with all body types.

14. Calimshan pirate outfits

Link to mods: NexusMods

This mod adds a dyeable pirate-themed outfit inspired by Calimshan, and it works across all races and body types. It’s an easy fit for rogues, especially if you’re leaning into pirate, smuggler, or swashbuckler roleplay. Simple and very easy to mix with other armors.

14. Calimshan pirate outfits BG3 mod

Works with all body types.

Final thoughts…

If there’s one thing rogues get right in Baldur’s Gate 3, it’s that armor is part of the character. A good set tells you who this person is before they ever roll initiative.

Some of these sets ended up glued to my rogue for entire acts, others became permanent upgrades for companions who were never allowed back into their default outfits.

If you’re the kind of player who spends more time in camp rotating characters than moving the main quest forward, you’re in good company. I’ve also put together armor mod picks for barbarians and rangers for when the rest of the party inevitably demands a makeover.

Best Armor Mods for Barbarians: Baldur’s Gate 3 (2025)

Best Armor Mods for Barbarians: Baldur’s Gate 3 (2025)

Some classes in Baldur’s Gate 3 value elegance and subtlety. Barbarians just want to look angry and survive the hit. This is part of our ongoing series digging up the best armor mods for every BG3 class, pulled from the in-game mod page, Nexus Mods, and the occasional unhinged Patreon find.

I’ve spent a frankly irresponsible amount of time digging through BG3 armor mods for barbarians, testing what actually fits the class fantasy. These are barbarian armor mods BG3 players can roleplay with, whether you’re running a Conan-style barbarian, leaning into infernal or goblin aesthetics, or going barely armored with fur, chains, and bad intentions.

1. Cambion and Gith armors

Link to mod: NexusMods

These are the perfect few armor sets because they look like they have been cobbed together by a… well, barbarian. Most of them are Avernus-themed, and a few are “Gith-like.” They fit any type of barbarian, but they are perfect for your Tiefling or Githyanki.

1. Cambion and gith armors for barbarians mo

Works on all body types.

2. Kurgan barbarian armor set

Link to mod: NexusMods

Now, you young bucks probably don’t know where this is from, while boomers like me are popping our lids just looking at this. This is a recreation of Kurgan armor from the Highlander movie. Just look at it, it’s perfect.

2. Kurgan armor for barbarians BG3

Fits body type 2 and 4.

3. Jaguar God helmet

Link to mod: NexusMods

Now this is a simple helmet that looks like you skinned the head of a jaguar and put it on your face, because why the fuck not. You can mix and match this dyeable headpiece with other armors from this list , and it fits perfectly.

3. Jaguar God Helmet BG3 armor mod

Works with body type 2 and 4.

4. Arsipsik collection  

Link to mod: NexusMods

Now, this style works well with Rogues and Rangers, and I’ve mentioned it in the armor mods list for these classes as well, but it fits really well with Barbarians. It’s a dark armor with capes and leather shoulder pads.

4. Arsipsik's collection BG3 armor mods

5. Witcher 3 Eredin set

Link to mod: NexusMods

Everyone here knows what Witcher 3 is. I HOPE. Everyone here knows who this armor belongs to as well. YOU’D BETTER. Skull helmet, lots of metal bone parts, Barbarian 10/10.

5. Witcher 3 Eredin armor mod BG3

Works with body types 2 and 4.

6. Mantel of blood (Cloak)

Link to mod: NexusMods

This cloak is perfect if you are doing a Dark Urge run… Tattered and looking like it’s soaked in blood, and you can easily mix and match it with all the other sets.

6. Mantle of Bload BG3 armor mods

Works on all body types.

7. Wasteland weaponry 

 Link to mod: NexusMods

While some armor mods on this list are kinda niche, this is your BARBARIAN, BARBARIAN set. Loin cloth, chains with a severed head on it, a belt with skulls… It’s perfect, and you can finally look like Conan. Disclaimer: Halsin not included with the armor.

7. Wasteland weaponry BG3 barbarian armor mod

Works on body types 1,2,4, and here is a link with a patch for body type 3

8. Barbarian starter armor 

Link to mod: NexusMods 

If you want to start with cool armor right away on your barbarian, this BG3 armor mod is for you. It’s a set that our favorite demon with a crossbow wears, and the best part is that if you take your panties off, you can run around with a bare ass. Perfect.

8. Barbarian starter armor mod BG3

Works on all body types.

9. Doom plate

Link to mod: NexusMods (adult content)

This is a set from Lineage 2, which explains the lack of, well, armor. It looks like it has been made for barbarian Thieflings, looks great on Dragonborn females, or for your favorite hothead Karlach.

9. Doom plate barbarian armor mod Lineague BG3

Works with body type 1,3.

10. Dragon age Veilguard armor

Link to mod: NexusMods

Now this might be a stretch, but I still feel these armors kind of fit barbarians, because of the fur on them. It’s two sets from Dragon Age Veilguard. Trash game, but nice-looking armours.

10. Dragon age veilguard Barbarian armor

Works on all body types.

11. Escapee’s garb

Link to mod: NexusMods

This is another starting set, and it’s perfect for people who want to roleplay a prisoner who got yanked from jail by mind flayers. Also, I think the arm and leg cuffs fit the barbarian theme really well, and you can mix them with other armors.

DISCLAIMER: You can’t use this mod with the Barbarians’ starter armor, as they both replace starting gear unless you use the TUTORIAL CHEST VERSION of this mod.

11. Escapee's garb BG3 armor mod for barbarians

Works on all body types.

12. Goblin armors

Link to mod: NexusMods

Do I really need to say anything about how goblin armor fits perfectly for Barbarian characters… I think not. 

12. Goblin armor mods for barbarians BG3

Works on all body types.

13. Lyn cloaks

Link to mod: NexusMods

There are a few beautiful cloak options in this mod, and they are all feather or animal-like.

You can role-play ripping them off harpies’ corpses and crafting them yourself after relevant encounters.

13. Lyn's cloaks armor mods for BG3

Work on all body types.

Final thoughts…

Barbarian armor mods in Baldur’s Gate 3 live or die by one thing: vibe. If it looks brutal, messy, or like it was taken off something you just killed, it probably works.

The sets on this list are the ones I keep coming back to when rolling a barbarian or gearing up a companion for a rage-heavy run. If you’re dressing your whole party instead of just your main character, I’ve also put together armor mod picks for rangers and rogues. Check them out when you have time. 

The Best Stratagems in Helldivers 2 (+input codes)

The Best Stratagems in Helldivers 2 (+input codes)

Welcome to my guide on the best Helldivers 2 stratagems. Why would you need such a list, you might ask. Simple: there are 50+ stratagems and only 4 stratagem slots (if you’re lucky) for every mission. So, you have to adapt and choose the right ones to avoid killing your fellow Helldivers and complete as many objectives as possible. 

While 100+ hours might not sound like a lot to most of you, for me that’s practically part-time employment! I’m almost level 60 and while I haven’t tried every single stratagem (some sound like an awful time), I have tried to identify the best ones.

Helldivers 2 stratagems tier list

Here’s my TL;DR tier list of the best Helldivers 2 stratagems. Explanations for the choices are provided below. Use this template to share your own tier list and link it in the comments below. I’d love to see what your favorites are. 

Best Helldivers 2 stratagems tier liest

S-tier stratagems

In my opinion, S-tiers are all-around great stratagems that either one-shot titan-type enemies or lend themselves incredibly well to multiple play styles.

S-tier helldivers 2 stratagems

 

  • Autocannon Helldivers 2 stratagem AC-8 Autocannon: S-tier against automatons. Can’t pierce heavy armor.
  • Flamethrower Helldivers 2 stratagem FLAM-40 Flamethrower: S-tier against terminids. Sucks against automatons. 
  • Shield generator pack Helldivers 2 SH-32 Shield Generator Pack: reliable protection against both enemy types, especially if you don’t like using medium or heavy armor. 
  • Eagle 500KG bomb Helldivers 2 stratagem Eagle 500kg Bomb: a bit of a personal choice, although it’s probably an A or B tier. The reason for giving it an S-tier, is the huge damage, 2 charges, and very low cooldown. 
  • Orbital railcannon strike Orbital Rail Cannon Strike: excellent for quickly taking down larger enemies like Chargers, Hulks, or tanks.
  • Orbital laser stratagem Orbital laser: best offensive stratagem for wiping out automaton bases, swarms, and nests.

A-tier stratagems:

These types of Helldivers 2 stratagems are powerful, or very useful, but may come with drawbacks like limited charges, long cooldowns, or lower effectiveness against certain enemy types, etc.

A-tier helldivers 2 stratagems

 

  • Anti-material riffle Helldivers 2 stratagem APW-1 Anti-Materiel Rifle: the best early-game weapon for taking down large enemies. Great for shooting through a heavy bot’s eyes.  
  • Arc thrower stratagem ARC-3 Arc Thrower: Infinite ammo, shots chain between mobs, and has the ability to take down heavy enemies in 6-10 shots.
  • Expandable antitank stratagem EAT-17 Expendable Anti-tank: excellent anti-heavy armor weapon with super low cooldown. Dosent use a backpack sloth and you get 2 per drop.
  • Grenade launcher Helldivers 2 stratagem GL-21 Grenade Launcher: great for plugging holes, clearing groups, and dealing with bile spewers.
  • Quasar canon Helldivers Quasar cannon: the best weapon for taking down automaton ships and blasting big terminid enemies, infinite ammo, doesn’t require a backpack. Wolf stopped me from giving it S-tier 🙂 
  • Recoilless Riffle Helldivers 2 stratagem GR-8 Recoilless Rifle: couldn’t put it down when I unlocked it. Incredibly powerful against large enemies, but reload time is punishing.  
  • EMS mortar sentry stratagem A/M-23 EMS Mortar Sentry: a much better option to the orbital/eagle EMS strike. Keeps enemies stunned and in place.
  • Mortar sentry Helldivers 2 stratagem A/M-12 Mortar Sentry: hands-down the most powerful sentry in the game. Doesn’t require line of sight, but will kill your teammates without hesitating. 
  • Autocannon sentry stratagem A/AC-8 Autocannon Sentry: great for short eradicate or defense missions. Good for taking down bigger targets like bile titans.
  • Eagle airstrike offensive stratagem Eagle airstrike: available right from the start and incredibly versatile. 
  • Eagle cluster bomb Helldivers 2 stratagem Eagle cluster bomb: love it because it has 5 recharges and good damage.
  • Napalm strike stratagem Eagle Napalm Airstrikeblows up everything and burns after impact, making it excellent against bugs.
  • Orbital airburst strike Orbital Airburst Strike: great against bug breaches. Strikes 3 times in a circle.

    B-tier stratagems:

    These are strong, fun, and overall powerful stratagems that are quite situational, or need a more complicated setup for maximum impact.

     

    • Guard dog laser Helldivers 2 stratagem AX/LAS-5 “Guard Dog” Rover: S-tier when it’s not shooting you in the head. Only recommended against terminids. 
    • Ballistich shield pack SH-20 Ballistic Shield Backpack: very good against automatons, especially destroyers. Requires a specific setup for maximum impact.
    • Supply pack stratagem B-1 Supply Pack: useful when playing in four-man parties or paired with machine guns and grenade launchers. 
    • exosuit helldivers 2 stratagems EXO-45 Patriot Exosuit: I strongly recommend this for eradicate, search & destroy, or egg missions (terminids). Not a good choice against automatons.
    • Jump pack Helldivers 2 LIFT-850 Jump Pack: I use it often in my playstyle because it’s fun, and because it gives me higher mobility while fighting bugs. 
    • Laser canon LAS-98 Laser Cannon: for me, it has lost its purpose since the quasar cannon came out. It also requires you to mostly stay still, which we all know is hard to do in Helldivers. 
    • Stalwart stratagem M-105 Stalwart: the lighter version of the machine gun, with better load time. Combos well with the supply pack.
    • Tesla tower Helldivers 2 stratagem A/ARC-3 Tesla Tower: incredibly powerful against terminids, but can easily kill allies. 
    • Shield generator relay stratagem FX-12 Shield Generator Relay: good protection, lends itself well to automaton extermination and personnel rescue missions. Useless against bugs.
    • Eagle smoke strike stratagem Eagle Smoke Strike: excellent for stealth play.
    • Orbital smoke strike Orbital Smoke Strike: another option for stealth play. Better against Robots because it breaks line of sight.
    • Orbital gas strike Orbital Gas Strike: very powerful against terminids. Not good against robots.
    • Orbital walking barrage Orbital Walking Barrage: similar to the 380mm but throws salvos in front of you. Powerful if positioned correctly.

    C-tier stratagems:

    C-tier stratagems are a MEH at best for me. I rarely ever use them, simply because there are better options in the game:

    C-tier Helldivers 2 stratagems

     

    • Machine gun Helldivers 2 stratagem MG-43 Machine Gun: Stalwart is a much better choice because it’s faster to aim and move with. Standing still is not really an option in this game.
    • Mg206 stratagem MG-206 Machine Gunquite powerful and combos well with the supply back. Doesn’t have a crosshair in third-person.
    • Guard dog machine gun AX/AR-23 “Guard Dog”: the AX/LAS-5 “Guard Dog” Rover is simply better. This one has less ammo, so it needs to recharge. It’s also more adapt at killing teammates. 
    • Railgun Helldivers RS-422 Railgun: this was one of the best weapons before the nerf. Now it’s a jack of all trades, master of none.
    • Spear Helldivers 2 stratagem FAF-14 SPEAR Launcher: probably gonna be A- or S-tier when they fix targeting. For now avoid it.
    • Anti-personel mines MD-6 Anti-Personnel Minefield: I have a theory that enemies are programmed to avoid these mines as soon as you place them down and your buddies are programmed to step on them.
    • Incendiary mines MD-I4 Incendiary Mines: same as anti-personnel minefield. 
    • Gattling sentry A/G-16 Gatling Sentry: better than the machine gun sentry. Not effective against armored enemies. Unreliable and ends up shooting allies chaotically.
    • Rocket sentry Helldivers 2 stratagem A/MLS-4X Rocket Sentry: I like this sentry but it’s very unreliable and usually ends up killing your teammates. 
    • Eagle staffing run stratagem Eagle Strafing Run: Pops intently and has a predictable path. Not that destructive though.
    • Eagle 110mm rocket pods Eagle 110MM Rocket Pods: a decent quick-fire eagle strike available at lower levels. There are more powerful options available later.
    • Orbital EMS strike Helldivers 2 stratagem Orbital EMS Strike: this is a very underrated stratagem, but the fact that it requires comboing and coordination is the reason I gave it a C-tier. Works like a charm when you pair it with a 500KG. Suitable for hit-and-run tactics.
    • Orbital gattling barrage Orbital Gatling Barrage: the only reason this isn’t a D-tier is because it unlocks at level 2.

    D-tier stratagems:

    These are the stratagems that I would never choose unless someone pointed a gun at my head because they simply suck. 

    D-tier Helldivers 2 stratagems

     

    • HMG emplacement stratagem E/MG-101 HMG Emplacement: yes, it’s powerful & fun, but who’s going to stand still? 
    • Machine gun sentry Helldivers 2 A/MG-43 Machine Gun Sentryobjectively the weakest sentry.
    • Orbital 120mm barrage Orbital 120mm HE Barrage: just no.
    • Orbital 380 HE barrage Orbital 380 HE barrage: I’ve never seen someone fire this without killing a teammate. Super slow and hits completely randomly.
    • Orbital precision strike Helldivers 2 stratagem Orbital Precision Strike: most unreliable Helldivers 2 stratagem.

    Helldivers 2 stratagems codes (cheat sheet)

    Stratagems are a major part of how you play. They’ll eventually become like second nature. Until then, use this cheat sheet. I’ve organized the codes into four major sections:

      • Offensive stratagems: enable the use of heavy ordnance, firebombs, and airstrikes.
      • Defensive stratagems: provide turrets, towers, shields, and mines to defend against enemies.
      • Supply stratagems: deliver defensive drones, utility packs, ammo, and heavy weapons.
      • Mission stratagems: become available while you are close to a relevant objective.

    Here are the input codes and most important details for all the Helldivers 2 stratagems:

    Since mission stratagems are very situational, I’ll just list them in a separate table:

    These are all the Helldivers 2 stratagem codes. If new stratagems become available, they will be added to the tables and highlighted for quick access.

    Wrapping up

    Thanks for sticking through this rundown of the best Helldivers 2 stratagems. As with any article of this type, these are my PERSONAL opinions. If you don’t agree with them, feel free to let me know in the comments. Also, I hope you find the stratagems useful. I was using cheat sheets a lot when the game was still buggy and my UI kept disappearing completely. 

    If you have any feedback or an insanely powerful combo you’d like to share, I’d love to know about it. I love the fact that Helldivers keeps every mission fresh by giving players so many tools for diversifying their game style. 

    I strongly advise you to try out all the Helldivers stratagems, pair them with different armors and weapons, and tailor your loadout to match every mission scenario.

    All Diablo 4 Druid Armor Sets [Outfit Transmogs]

    This article showcases all the Diablo 4 Druid armor sets you can find in the world. This is the third article like this I’m typing out. So I have no other good intro. You are not here for my intros anyway, go check these Druid sets out and have a nice day.

    Don’t forget to dismantle the random world drops at your local blacksmith to unlock the appearances.

    Before you start, a few disclaimers:

    • There are some armor pieces that are not part of sets, so I won’t include them.
    • After 200 hours of gameplay we still have 2 Wardrobe slots locked so I’m not sure if those are upcoming rogue armors or they are some sort of legendary drop that is impossible to get. Keep that in mind.

    You’re probably noticing a pattern by know. All the classes in Diablo 4 have similar armor sets. What is your favorite Diablo 4 druid armor set? Mine are the Runic and Doom sets. There are still a few locked slots left, so I’m assuming they are planning to release more rare stuff in the future.

    I don’t plan on reinstalling Diablo 4 anytime soon, but if anything knew pops up, I’ll definitely be updating this showcase article. Until then, stay safe, and loot hard.
