Equip a Lethal from the Loadout Screen

Equip a Lethal at the Loadout Screen

For players who do not know, you are free to equip lethals in DMZ from the Lobby loadout menu before deployment. This will not cost anything so make sure to equip one before deploying in the DMZ and get a headstart on the mission.

However, do note that you will only be able to equip lethal equipment that you have already unlocked. You cannot equip high-tier lethals like the Throwing Knife if your account Rank is too low.

Purchase Munition Boxes from Buy Stations

Munitions Box

For $1000 Cash, players can purchase a Munitions Box from any Buy Station on the map. You can then deploy this field upgrade in order to resupply yourself with more lethals. Lethals will stack in 2’s, so make sure you have enough room in your backpack for your extra lethals and your armor plates.

How to Unlock the Munitions Box Field Upgrade

Drop Your Lethal Before Resupplying with a Munitions Box

If you already have lethals equipped, you can get 2 more by dropping or stowing your equipped lethals before using a munitions box field upgrade. This is an easy way to get a few extra lethals to deposit at round start or when you're at the dead drop.

Loot Extra Lethals from Duffel Bags, Supply Crates, or Supply Boxes

Loot Containers

In general, Lethals are easily looted from the different loot containers found in Al Mazrah. Sometimes, they will be even lying in the open for you to loot. To make the process more efficient, loot the buildings surrounding the Dead Drop for a quick and easy deposit during the match.
