thanks.

in my last water war i used two stingrays and a flash flood

Wow, I haven't posted here... I like to use my trusty CPS 1000, with my XP 70 in my backpack.

I tend to only use one large assault rifle like my Expedition or Vindicator or my friends CPS 1500 with usually no sidearm because I like to focus only on my main weapon and not worry about lugging around a sidearm or back pack. I have carried a smaller Max D 2000 or a generic squirt pistol in the past.

Sidearms (handguns in particular) are good to carry if you can get them secured and not worry about them falling out.

This summer, I might go back to trying light dualie combos, such as FF + Max-D 5000 (or SC 400 if my 5k is having problems), for soakfests. For 1HK, I'll stick to the "pistol - rifle" style combination. Theres a reason why its like that in real war.

Here's a list of combos I'll probably use in the future.

Juggernaut: Dual-wield: [FF + (anything Max-D 3000 to FF)] + CPS 2100 or Max-D 6000 strapped on back
Assault/Commando: CPS 12k or 2500 + Max-D 2000 (or Liquidator)
Artillery/Long-Range Crewman or Sniper: WBL (+ necessary supplies) + SC 400 to Tiger Shark/MD6k
CQB: FF + Tiger Shark/MD6k

All combos with at least 2 .5L bottles and a sack of unfilled WB's

My XP 70 broke (sad face). Now I go CPS 1000 only, with water balloons in a Pringles can.

I just tried dual max d 5000s but one broke. Im fixing it but the combo was nuts.

Strap modded MD6k and vanquisher with drilled fan blast, or the 6k and a CPS 2000.
I <3 6k's

CPS 2700 and CPS 1200 xD

Currently I am building up the SUPER CPS.

This gun is a "built together" of two mainly Soakers and some few things from others. FInished soon ! Pics and more information can be found in my theard "SUPER CPS" Let's see what comes out in the end

I too, use Pringles' cans for carrying water balloons, though the MD5k sucks and breaks very easily, otherwise I'd dual wield it with a FF.

For this summer, I ought to try rocking out a new combo, something I just haven't done in a while. It may end up being FF + MD6k dual wielded, or something random like that. That'll only be for light-soak games where CPS's and hose nozzles are restricted from use.

For soakfests, I'll have to take it upon myself to at least dual wield a pair of 12k's, though the 2500 and 2000 are preferable.

When I was younger I used to duel weald two XP270s, it wasn't that fast though, I could baraly carry them (their broken now, thank a friends B-day party for that. They didn't want to step on them wile jumping on the trampoline so they through them up over the net, they would have been better off being steped on). Later I started duel wealding flash floods but that ended after they both broke. Curently I use my Vindicator with a 50oz water bottle and my Helix in my backpack. I'm thinking of trying to make some kind of back sheath for the Helix for quicker drawing, but might as make it for my steady stream, it's 10 times the gun the Helix is (guess I'm just stubern, I like the Helix for some reason). I would like to duel weald max D 2000s as a last resort, I boght 20 of them but they all had a factory defect!

Be sure to drop a thread in the repairs forum if you need help with the 270's.

Dual wielding's a lot of fun; it's unfortunate that doing so is pretty ineffective for hit based games though. Try dual wielding different blasters, which is what I end up doing most of the time as I usually only have one of each blaster.

My small arsenal limits my wielding options, but it already reflects my style, I guess.

My primary would be Flash Flood with a Max Infusion Overload Backpack (good range, good power, enough water and stuff) and my backup would be a Shotblast, because of its fast reaction and the fact that it has reasonable power and range (for a piston-based blaster). So that way, I try to get the best of both worlds.
