How to heal teammates in Helldivers 2 

Healing a teammate just requires you to go up to them and press the interact button that appears; this will be on E on keyboard, X on the PlayStation controller, and A on an Xbox controller. 

However, the feature doesn't always appear above injured players. From my time playing, I've noticed that it only appears above players who are seriously injured and have a red health bar, denoting that their HP is below 50%.

Once you press the heal button, a small animation and sound will play as you use the stim on them. You can also check their HP bar in the bottom left corner to double-check it worked. 

It's only worth using your own stims on other players if they've run out of their own healing items, and you'll want to try and always have one left on your person unless it's an emergency that calls for it to be used. 

I also recommend the Vitality Enhancement booster on missions, as it stops you from being injured, meaning you won't have to use as many stims in general on either yourself or other players.
