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

[–] PenguinTD@lemmy.ca 2 points 7 months ago

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.

Keep your filthy hands off my jet pack

[–] PenguinTD@lemmy.ca 3 points 7 months ago

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.
