    The rover really does look helpful and effective, but I’ve been sweeped by its laser too many times to ever trust it

    People calling in my reinforcement far away from my Rover is the bane of my existence. I’ll be like, “Sorry, can’t help you with that charger, I gotta walk HALF WAY ACROSS THE GOD DAMN MAP!”

      “but there’s still 15 minutes of cooldown, now I have to go back across the map that nest with 6 chargers naked”

    As a certified looter, I will pick up your samples/support weapons and backpacks when I find a way around. I usually go with EAT and 3 strike so my backpack slot is most of time empty. I usually drop it back to owner if they died in opening or if it’s long cool down item.(like those util backpacks.)

    After the mission, if you see the map is clean without much dead diver stuff on minimap, it’s a pretty good efficient run. :)

      Whenever I use the EAT it’s always faster to stick it to the charger and have the drop kill it than wait for my EAT

        yeah, EAT for me is like 3 shots, including the drop. If you time it right and run around the charger so it has to turn slowly to charge you(if it starts turning CW you also run CW, vise versa), chances are it doesn’t even finish turning when the drop pod arrive. stick to the leg or stick to the head doesn’t matter.

        Jet pack is the one backpack I unlocked but never bring to mission, I always pick up on the field. :P But usually I drop it and switch to rover or shield, or auto cannon+backpack. I find really little use of jetpack.

    I think you mean jump pack. How else will I run away crying like a baby tactically retreat efficiently when my eagle is incoming?

      The jump pack is one item that’s just so fun that I’ll pick it over a more helpful backpack every time.

        I honestly think it’s extremely good against terminids. Really helpful to get out of a tight situation or to get up on a rock and cheese for a minute

        I love that this game managed to make the non meta weapons fun and effective to use.
