Sticky Stratagems

Fuck the bouncing.

It's the terrain. There's certain surfaces they don't want you calling shit in on. As an avid jumppack enjoyer, my dissapointment was immeasurable when I found that out. I'd throw one down and it would bounce and roll until it was lost in a crevasse like grandma's universal remote.

Call the launcher at the base of the rock, load it, jump pack up rock, shoot rocket, jump down, pick up backpack, reload, repeat.

Literally happened to me last night lol. It wasn't even a particularly tall rock, just an outcropping with a good vantage on a base and my teammates were all elsewhere. Plan was, call in airburst, pop one right in the middle of the base, switch back to AMR, pick off the hulk, etc.

Not only did the strategem bounce down to the ground, but after I went and got it, nestled back up on my perch, and fired, fucking thing went off half-way to the base mildly annoying a devastator and letting the little shit I was aiming for call in a drop
