Into The Hive Best Augments: How to Roll and Equip Them

What Augments Do and Why They Matter

If you're chasing the Into The Hive best augments, start with the basics of how they work. Augments are upgrades you apply to your equipment back at base between expeditions. They change how your weapons and tools perform. For example, one Augment raises firing speed, and another keeps your turrets alive longer against the swarm.

Into The Hive is a co-op shooter for 1–4 players set in randomly generated caves, and going deeper into the hive earns better rewards. A stronger loadout helps your squad hold its ground when the swarm closes in.

How to Get Augments

There are two ways to fill your slots:

Into The Hive — How to Get Augments

  • Spin for them. Hit the spin button at base to roll an Augment. The rarity is random.
  • Spend Equipment Tokens. Tokens are the currency for unlocking Augments and new equipment, including guns, throwables, and sentries.

Don't skip the free epic. On your second day of logging in, the game hands you a free epic Augment.

Don't Chase Rarity Early

A common-rarity Augment is a solid pickup when you're starting out. Take whatever your first spin gives you, slot it in, and get back into the caves. Don't stress over landing high rarities right away.

Equipping and Moving Augments

Augments aren't locked to the weapon you put them on. You can pull one off at any time and move it to a better gun later. That means you can equip your free epic on the starting rifle right away without wasting it.

Your weapon starts with one Augment slot. When it reaches Mastery level 4, a second slot opens up. Keep using the same gun to level its Mastery instead of switching around early.

The Mastery Booster is optional. It only speeds up the grind to that second slot and makes upgrades cheaper.

Where Augments Fit in Your Spending Order

Augments work best as part of a plan for your Cash. Follow this order to get the most out of each mission payout:

  1. Skip the 5,000 gun. The AR 02 costs 5,000 and performs about the same as your starting rifle. Save that money.
  2. Upgrade the weapon you already own. Hit the upgrade button on your starter gun first.
  3. Get an Augment on it. Spin, equip, and take your day-two epic when it arrives.
  4. Spin for armor next. As with Augments, a common armor roll is fine for the early game.
  5. Buy a 12K or 20K weapon. Once you've covered upgrades, Augments, and armor, these are worth the Cash. Move your best Augment over to the new gun.
  6. Round out with grenades and turrets. Throwables and sentries fill the gaps in your loadout.

Matching Augments to Your Role

Since Augments work on tools as well as guns, think about what your squad needs before you commit Tokens:

  • Holding chokepoints or covering teammates: look at sentries and turret-focused Augments, like the one that makes turrets last longer.
  • Carrying the damage yourself: put your best roll on your main gun. A firing-speed boost helps you clear swarms in tight caves where every shot counts.

Review your full loadout at base before each expedition, especially after buying something new. A new weapon or sentry can change which Augments you want equipped.
