4+1 or 3+4 packs?

[obladeo]

I've been playing for sometime now with a 4+1 (4 pots + 1 bottle) and I find it really good for when i need to hide behind stuff. I have two issues with this tho

The remote line keeps getting hit as it's like another arm sticking out.
Also When i'm running the bottle feels like a lead weight on my back.

Well the long and the short of it is i'm not sure if to go out and get a 3+4 pack as the marker feels so much bigger with the tank attached and i don't want to waste my money.

I should also point out i don't play sup that often it's mainly woodsball and diving into a tree trunk while doing a superman just does not happen

i prefair to have more paint. woodsball games can drag on and paint can run low. that extra paint space can help. but again sum markers will only shoot 600ish ball son a tank of air.

I use a 3+4 pack I find its better to have a pack were I can put a minimum amount in or a larger amount depending on the game. Never seen the need to have the bottle strapped to your back its just easier to have it on the marker to counter the weight of a hooper full of paint.

What are you shooting? I tried going out with my angel running off a remote line at the weekend and found it was nowhere near as accurate as with the bottle attached directly (something to butt into your shoulder) also found that with a remote line attached I could switch hands so hand to lean well out of cover to take off hand shots. My advice would be pick up a cheap small pack, say a 3+2, second hand and see how you fair if you don't like it flog the 3+2 if you do like it flog both packs and buy a bigger one.

i'm shooting bob longs mainly 2k5's with rotor and carbon barrel.

I do find it hard sometimes to hit what i'm aiming at tbh so just end up wasting paint.

OK tomorrow back garden reballs and no remote line to give it a test

I do have a trining dvd somewhere that i've not had time to watch so i should really get watching that too

Thanks allot

Trust me with something to pull the marker into your shoulder it'll feel so much more natural to aim.

4+3. The only people who should use a remote hose are the Ghostbusters.

Well i gave it ago and i was allot more accurate so i'm now in the market for a new pack

So which one would you surgest? I've been looking at the dye attack pro camo but it's quite abit of £

I normaly use about 4-5 pods per game

NXe make some real good quality packs.

Something to consider with packs for woodsball is how easy is it get empty pods back into it mid-game? I've no experience with a dye pack, but it looks like a pain in the ass for this because of it's design. I'm sure somebody who's used one can shed some light about this

I agree with Bambulus, NXe are the best to go for if you don't want to pay lots for Dye.
