Learn how to effectively manage and utilize supplies like Health Kits, Ammo Packs, Pills, and Adrenaline in Left 4 Dead 2 to maximize your team's survival chances.

In a zombie-infested world, the Survivors must make good use of every piece of supply they encounter. Always take everything in sight whenever possible!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Upon seeing any items, pick them up. Keep track of how many Grenades, Packs, and Consumables every Survivor has in hand.
  2. 2
    Does someone need Consumables and are there any extra Consumables lying about? Feel free to give some Consumables to the needy, and then take the spare Consumables on the ground.
  3. 3
    Does everyone have Consumables, but there are still extra Consumables? Use them and take an extra bunch.
  4. 4
    See an extra Health Kit? Use it on the most injured Survivor (even if the Survivor isn't too badly hurt), or save it in case of a bigger emergency.
  5. 5
    If everyone has a Health Kit or Defibrillator, and there is an Ammo Pack lying around, pick up the Ammo Pack and deploy it, then take back the Health Kit/Defibrillator.
  6. 6
    If not everyone has a Health Kit, take an Ammo Pack or a Defibrillator and save it for later.
  7. 7
    Take a look at the spare item and use the "Look!" voice command in order to tell the others that there's an item here. This also applies to Ammo, Weapons, and people.
  8. 8
    Upon receiving Pills or Adrenaline from another Survivor, it's not always mandatory to consume them right away (in fact, it's quite rude if the Survivor doesn't really need to do it at all).
  9. 9
    Too many Defibrillators? Have a Survivor under 50 Health? Kill off that Survivor and use a Defibrillator to bring him/her to 50 Health instead of wasting a precious Health Kit.
  10. 10
    If a Footlocker contains Pills or Adrenaline, feel free to use the Pills or Adrenaline and pick up another.
Tips
  • It is rumoured that using Health Kits on others increases the chances of finding another in the level than using it on one's self.
  • Ammo Packs provide a full extra clip for guns (except for the M60).
