I can't believe people still can't figure out how actually bad it is, how easily it can be countered. x)
Sure, because you've never tried to use it yourself.

This time I just couldn't resist, retardation shall not prevail.
I'll share some secrets with you. Take a look:

From my experience: any weapon with explosive rounds kills me before I can even escape out of the dome at most of the times, because everything inside gets full aoe damage when the dome takes a hit. There are a lot of weapons with good aoe damage which goes through the shield as well. Anything flamethrower-like also works.
I can't fight back when I'm inside, it's more like a prison, people camp with their snipers waiting the moment I show them any body part out of the dome:


Now everyone knows it, so the wrench shield will be nothing but a waste pretty soon :p

Also, I'm the only one who seriously uses it, my score is always much worse when I play with the wrench, not with random weps. Net is negative most of the times. I don't see any problems, I feel only hate here. x)

Shield has plenty of health, we'll say 500 as an example. When its health drops to 0, the generator has to recharge up to 100% before shields are back online, when its offline, the shield will recharge passively, say 10 seconds to get back up to 100%, at which point it will be back at full health. Hitting the generator with the wrench would add, say, 25% to the charge (possibly at expense of ammo), up to 75%, with the last 25% only able to recharge passively over time, so you have a minimum of 2.5 seconds where the shield will be down.

I like this! It would be awesome if only the shield actually could provide full protection.

Silly Yanriel. Having to change your loadout in response to an opponent's is forbidden on LDG.

We have very strange rules here.

We can count the number of Wrench user in one hand anyway.. Yan uses it very often, I use it regardless of the map, I saw Tequila with it sometimes and Mecha yesterday (if it was him). Maybe there're more people with it but actually, I didn't see someone else with the Wrench except us.

I agree with Yan about one point:

Also, I'm the only one who seriously uses it, my score is always much worse when I play with the wrench, not with random weps. Net is negative most of the times.

Except if you use a sniper & camping somewhere (and even with this), your score/net won't be high/positive.

The weapon brings a new kind of support for your team but most of the players don't know things about the Wrench so nobody doesn't care about teleporter, boostpad (still some people who doesn't know how to use boostpad or teleporter), shield or ammo..

>Expecting any kind of tactics on bw

[Azarael]

I might suggest that the reason we never see any tactics on BW is because there's no need to ever develop them.

[Calypto]

Usually tactics are edited out of the map if we are caught using them

[Jester]

Tactics can be useful but it seems using spam mode is much better.
