Oh damn, I raged so hard when a host kicked me for reinforcing him near the objective. He yelled about how far away his gear is now and kicked me, lol.

My logic is if you can't function without your gears, it is an issue bound to wreck a mission. It is why I started deviating away from meta before they were even nerfed. My logic is simple, if you really can't do the mission without certain gear(that has long cool down), you simple can't afford to make any mistake, even when some actions that was logical( like throwing a good air strike/500kg on yourself when you know you can't get out, or have another squad member to throw you away/toward objectives to speed up mission while you kite the enemies away from them, maybe inevitably died due to overwhelming numbers. Those long cool down load out impede decision making process.

And, once mistake happened and you are now short of 2 stratagem to work with for the next 4~8 mins, I really can't justify that.
