Yeah, I can't see those videos. I checked out that site a month ago or so, & it said I need to update my flash player >.<
I really need to get some programs lol.

This has been addressed and it's no biggie to push the \ button and be rid of it. Common people deal with it, it's almost automatic for me. I know I need to toss bio and grenade launcher, automatic reflex.
i think the problem is when you are on a high level wave and you get thrown into a weapon locker and bam! you have crappy weapons everywhere and you dont even know it and when your current gun runs out of ammo it switches to one of those crappy weapons
and about mana shield, it would be nice for weapon masters to not have those
or if you have loaded weapons maxed you should have an option to opt out of getting mana shield weapons
they cause more problems than they solve and i just think they should be treated like a - stat weapon

I really like the mana-shield weapons with my WM and find it quite useful.
And don't get too fired up about new weapons. We have gone that route and alot of them are flakey and either over-powered or just a nusance. Just give me the minelayer, link, shock and amril and I'm set. I don't need no mp5, mini-gun, bio, flak, grenade, redeemer, painter, lightning, or sniper rifle, thank you very much......

Me, I used to get pissed when I picked up the weps that I don't need. Now I just either make 'em null or energy and I'm set. At least it's the magic that I want. I just make it work :salute:

If you reorder your weapon priorities it might be easier, especially if you usually make the same weapons.

Nah, it's the shield he really needs...
But seriously, Amril?
Back on topic, my mana shield weap saved me from a luci hit on my Medic recently... all my adren drained but I survived :cheers:

Amril is a very useful weapon in long range (specially early waves). If you master that weapon, you can leech kills as if you were vorping :D

Just to show how useful Mana can be I did some calculations:
WailofSuicide wrote:Starts with each mana point worth 2.19 health points, increases to 4.79 health points.
Presumably this means each + equals 0.65 health. So if the weapon is +1'd to a Mana +5 weapon, the max extends to 5.44 health/adren. If you have 250 adren, then 5.44*250 = 1360
extra health. Even if you only have 100 adren and a Mana +1 weap, that's 2.19*100 = 219 extra health
minimum.
