The Division: 10 Crucial Tips & Tricks You Need To Know

9. You Have Consumables, Use Them

As you're playing, you'll notice that you keep picking up items like water, soda, energy bars and canned food. You'll even notice that you'll pick up some special ammo types like incendiary bullets as well as explosive bullets. It may be hard to figure out how to use these items but the solution is extremely simple. Simply just hold right on the D-pad for both the Xbox One and the PS4 or hold the V key on PC to bring up your consumable wheel. Be aware however, that these effects last a limited time - even the special ammo types - so be sure to use them when it suits you best. Canned food will give you a buff on healing, while water adds to your damage done to elites and soda reduces the cooldown of your skills. These can come in handy in certain situations when you're pinned down, so you must not forget that you have the ability to use them. However, some of these consumables can be used elsewhere too....
