Strategy/Tips[]
- The Repair Tool is best at repairing vehicles. Repairing structures takes more time and ammo. Try building an A.R.M. or replacing the damaged structure instead.
- It does in fact damage infantry, but only at a rate that they would have to have an extremely late reaction time or be idle in order for you to get a kill. At it's effective range, a knife would be a much superior alternative towards infantry.
- If you are going for mastery of this, the victim would have to intentionally allow you the kill, so get a buddy to let you.
Trivia[]
- The Welding Torch "replaces" the Wrench from Warhawk.
