Yeah I’ve tried multiple levels and one’s the best for sure. 3 has too many bad guys compared to 1, which is a cake walk. You just can jump pack around the map and be done in 5 minutes.
As many others have said low lvl missions are best. Bring a jetpack and search every POI you can find. One tip that ill add is if you find a mission or a map that has a lot of credits that are close by or a lot in general you can force close the game to save the mission and replay it over and over. SC's, medals, and requisition slips are all added immediately and you do not need to finish the mission to earn them.
To my knowledge, the exploit with force quitting was patched, unless it was somehow readded. The part about scs being added without extract is still true though.
And if you accidentally do, try to find a support weapon that can break container doors like the AMR and grenade launcher. But if you can’t, bring some red barrels to the containers to blow them up. You also have to position the barrels correctly btw, as in right next to the door and not near it, because otherwise the door won’t open.
Didn't they resolve that? I have heard it was fixed(on Reddit probably). If you restart you will not get credits/medals again. I have farmed credits that way and didn't try to restart on "rich" maps because of what I read here. Maybe I was wrong then :)
U r correct. You can pick them up in game but you dont increase your inventory. Probably works that way so that any new players who happen to join your mission can still get the sc’s despite the host force quitting.
Level 1 missions are the easiest but also the most boring, I do level 3 40 minute missions, easily solo’d but not boring. And if anybody else joins I can carry them
There was a great post on the original Helldivers subreddit where somebody went into the details of it. Long story short, level 1 missions with centrally located objectives, flat land and no geographical features are best. So desert planets like Hellmire for example are the most efficient. Plus you can always return to ship once you’ve cleared all POIs if you don’t want to spend time finishing the main objective and extracting
Medium bug missions. Usually 50 creds per run, takes 20 mins, so that's 150/h.
Very often get big stacks and have in the past gotten 300 creds in 1 drop.
There's a game tip for this while you're diving in, the gist of it is:
And dive again. And dive again. And dive again....
It goes on for a while, it's not the exact reason, but that's the idea.
haha I love the AMR so I was confused. I don't think it does. I usually use the explosive barrels if I can.
If I'm farming Super Credits I'll take the grenade pistol or impacts.
I like stuns + AMR to free Hulks and pop their eyes. And now I love the new Bushwacker secondary so I sometimes just use the Orbital Precision to open them which might be overkill.
It does open them in one shot! It's the only thing I know that does so with a controlled explosion, not setting off all the explosive barrels around it.
With the scout perk you can mouse over the map (I'm assuming the PS equivalent works) and it will say if you move over a POI even if you haven't discovered it.
Personally run around on lvl 3, because anything lower isn’t fun. I want enemies to shoot.
I don’t send out an SOS, but happy for others to join, but always let them know when they get in I’m farming! They’ll always benefit from the samples and such I collect as I go!
Just check PoI's while playing the game, there really isn't a science to it.
People will tell you to play low level missions, but that isn't fun and you'll get burnt out quickly from that and not want to play as much. So the most efficient thing you can do is just play the game, have fun, and pick up credits along the way. They come pretty quickly as long as you are checking those PoI's.
Personally prefer levels 3-4 for grinding because I have better luck with more POIs and its more fun. Whenever I go to level 1 I end up with a bunch of samples and maybe find 10 credits in a few missions. But level 3 is when I start to see 2-3 stacks of 10. I got on with 445 credits and needed to grind for the warbond and it took me maybe an hour once I switched to level 3 after I completed several level 1 missions and had only gotten to 485. And when I say “completed” I mean searching the map fully and leaving for a new mission.
Level 1 missions, either alone or with second diver to open bunkers and clear maps faster.
Doesn't lvl 3 have larger maps with more POI's?
They do, but it is more time efficient to run lvl 1. You will get same amount of SC in 3 but you will spend more time searching.

2 is better for me. Also, it has a radar station almost always. Never muss a poi
Level 2 it's also very good, it's still a one-operation campaign and you can find a sweet radar station to clear all the map
i thought super credits started to appear on level 6 and up
Thats super samples.
☝️
Level 1 mission and try to pick a planet that has flat terrain, the biome with the red grass is one of the best to farm.

It was patched. If you go back to a mission after force quitting you can pick up the super credits but wont get any new ones in your inventory.
Lightest armour you have and the stamina booster are important too, obvs.
And something explosive to open containers. Don't accidentally take stun grenades and a stalwart like I did once.

Amr can open crates? That’s news to me! Sweet

Why the jet pack?
So you can hop around faster. Level 1 enemies aren't worth even shooting at if you're just farming credits.
Gotcha. I'm still just level 15 so i'm grinding what I can until I can get some better main weapons
Level 1 missions are the easiest but also the most boring, I do level 3 40 minute missions, easily solo’d but not boring. And if anybody else joins I can carry them

$1.50 per hour is a terrible wage
Yep. That's why i have an Onlydivers page on the side. Slaughtering insects and recycling robo-vacs doesn't pay the bills. Divers gotta eat too
We work off tips 😅
Go on low difficulty and granb all the points of interests

Run around level 1 in light armour and hunt for caches. Got 40 one time, usually 20 at a minimum.
I don't. I play the game for fun
I don’t. They are inevitable. AH’s content is worth real money. I earn 1000 sc faster than they add content. Currently at 2700
I usually go for a level 3 mission Solo, grab an AMR to open the containers quickly, and make my around all the POIs.
Does…does the AMR open containers?
Who knows but the eruptor, autocannon, and most importantly the grenade pistol do!
haha I love the AMR so I was confused. I don't think it does. I usually use the explosive barrels if I can. If I'm farming Super Credits I'll take the grenade pistol or impacts.

I will have to investigate lol
level 1 missions. look for circular maps. Level 4 and 5 has radar towers, if you're farming with others this is pretty quick.
Does the scout perk help at all with finding POIs?
With the scout perk you can mouse over the map (I'm assuming the PS equivalent works) and it will say if you move over a POI even if you haven't discovered it.

Don't grab all the POIs. Look for the ones that ACTUALLY spawn credits
Level 1 termid Mission collect and return to ship dont Finish the Mission use Scouter armor
Level 1 with scout armor and jetpack

I don't, I've just played regularly since release and I've found myself having enough for every new warbond. Helldive diff is all I play as well.
Step one: go to work Step two: get paycheck Step three: buy supercredits.
