General resuply and spawn tips

Most might over look this, but it can be good for you, in picking what bags to take. First of all lets start with most league maps. Openfire_l, fry maps, mulch maps, monkey_l, torch2 all give you all the stuff you need in 1 pack. Which means please please DO NOT take more that one pack on those maps. Torch2 and monkey_l are the only maps in that list that do not give you nades in all the bags. Torch2 give you nades in the bags closest to the health. They are very very slow in comming back up, so DO NOT take both. 1 will give you your maxium amount of nades. In monkey_l, there is only 1 nade pack per team, and it only gives you 1 of each nade. Take it if you need it, but it's better to just play without nades and get them when you die again.

In other maps such as 2fort, depending on the class you don't need all the ammo either. When I'm a solly I usually only carry 24 rockets with me if I can help it. Because you are not going to use that many before resupling, I don't care who you are. And it makes you less vulnerable to emps. The less ammo you carry, the less of a boom you make. For scout, you do not need the nade pack. 1 caltrop means nothing. Snipers don't benifit much either. 15 shells is not that important. And snipers do not!!! need nades. Even as suicidal as I am with sniper, you do not need nades. The other classes do benifit from lots of ammo.

I wrote this mainly because I saw a medic in torch2 go and grap every single pack in torch2, I was im amazement. And after all the people I see grabbing every pack they can in openfire.

Not like they don't respawn fast enough. Just wait 2 or 3 seconds and they'll be back if you need them that much. I usually never fought full ammo and health/armor, It makes me play better to know that the hits count more when I'm not full life.

Another note to add to your list Lin would be as an engineer, only take one ammo pack and one armor pack. It gives you everything you need for upgrades. Taking all the ammo packs means your team may have to wait for ammo which slows down the efficiency of the whole team.

YPAWOM, in the league maps, some packs take forever to come back. Ever wait for a torch2 nade pack?

I have, and I've watched some turd run in the door and grab every pack just as the nade bags finally resupplied. Then I had to wait again for them to appear before I could conc the flag over to the other base.

Not when you can conc across the entire map as Scout or Med. It takes much less travel time.

The only problem I have about packs is when a sniper takes the Grenades right in front of me. What the hell is he going to do with them? Otherwise I just get out there and kill.

Esp. on maps like torch2 where you cap in the enemy base, or 2fort where there is a limited supply of nades, kill yourself after you cap. You go back to respawn with a fresh supply of nades, and let other more important people, such as soldiers and engies, get nades. I always get only one ammo bag and one armor thingy. For scout you don't even need an ammo bag.

On 2 fort you can grab the bag of nades in the lower resupply.
about as fast as killing yourself.

I may be one of the offenders of getting a lot of bags. Part of the issue with me is that there are maps like rock2 where you don't get resupplied by just one bag and I am typically engie so I would need to completely resupply. Plus most of the time they come back almost as soon as I leave.
