The One Truest Flag - Buffs in a radius 2026-10-04

A Mod for Helldivers 2
The One Truest Flag - Buffs in a radius akl_mod_preview_image
The One True Flag inspires Helldivers near it, encouraging them to fight harder!

Provides two different sets of buffs depending on activity! If you are actively holding the flag in your hand, you and your squad get the "Charging" buffs meant to allow you and your team to assault an enemy location. When planted in the ground, the flag gives the "Holding ground" buffs!

Charging: within 35 m of a Helldiver carrying the flag (flag-bearer included) get the following effects
  • No flinching
  • Armor rating +25
  • Map markers radar-scan (to give better info during an assault)
  • Melee damage +80%
  • Weapon ergonomics +30
  • Throw range +30% (to more easily soften up the enemy with stratagems and grenades while avoiding friendly fire)
  • Primary and sidearm reload +30%
  • Move speed +10%
  • Stamina drains 30% slower and refills 30% faster
Holding ground: within 25 m of a planted flag get the following effects
  • Democracy Protects
  • Adreno-Defibrillator's revive
  • Explosive resist 50%
  • armor rating +30
  • Ragdoll resistance
  • Impact damage −30%
  • Recoil while crouched or prone −30%
25 meters is, by the way, the radius you need to be in for the "spread democracy" flag raising objective (for scale).

The flag still has the vanilla effect of drawing increased enemy aggro

Charging and holding ground can apply at the same time with two wielders (two "charging" or two "holding ground" flags do NOT stack). Every effect stacks with the same effect on your armor (and helmet, compatible with other passives mods!)

People without the mod do not get any effects, but YOU do get an effect from THEIR flag if you have this mod

Requires: Bingus Shared Loader

Eh, can you make it so it retains the original effect that is actually useful but give you armor and other buffs to yourself so you can better tank it?

Ok, this mod is very cool and desirable, but I can't help but to see it as a cheat mod that might get me banned.

it's not possible to be banned from helldivers 2. there currently does not exist a method for Arrowhead to ban players for any reason. Even if you inject cheat engine directly into the game, all Gameguard does is close the game and politely ask you to close the offending software

Does this mod overwrite other mod that change flag damage?
it shouldn't, no. this mod doesn't alter the damage of the weapon itself. it does give an 80% boost to all melee when held in the hand though, so it will further increase any damage buffs from other mods.
