with my (planned) HvZ character a responsible armed citizen, i would be running jeans and a solid color shirt. But, good advice: Remember 2 is 1 and 1 is none
I love that so much!
That does sound like a really fun idea for the immersion of it, as if when the hvz starts you’re just walking home from work and had to pull your edc. What does your loadout consist of?
Almost as good as slow is smooth, smooth is fast
I would love to see you at an event! Personally, my character is a mercenary.
The mediator has got to be one of the best backup primaries in my opinion. Pump action, slam-fire and the blaster with no attachments is so small, it easily fits into or could be clipped to a backpack. This video kinda filled in some of the gaps between your light infantry and civilian loadout videos. Sound advice all around.
Absolutely! Good points!
I agree, I have a Mediator too, and it’s like Stryfe size, perhaps a hair smaller, albeit with the side mag well. It just the Rampage’s smaller brother!
I've seen Mediators having a ton of jamming issues. Honestly anything slam fire, you're typically asking for trouble with jamming.
@@scottjs5207 I don't recall either of mine ever jamming, but your mileage may vary. With the side-load, I think some of the heavier drums cause alignment issues. And I've had faulty drums that fail to fully advance the next dart, causing jams in any blaster. I've never had an issue with 18rnd or smaller stick mags.
I've been eyeing the mediator fire exactly that reason. My pump action retaliator might be too much for the pearl-clutchers, but a vanilla mediator should pass muster.
In addition to your advice about minimalist/backup loadouts, this video also proves that you don't need an enormous budget to get into HvZ. I could show up to an event, run a 'minimal' loadout as my primary, and still have a good time. Fancy blasters and gear can be great fun, but they're not absolutely necessary.
Absolutely!
I really miss these loadout videos
I would recommend a mag fed rival blaster like the Helios or Apollo, as they have the benefit of being a stock springer with good performance, and they have smaller than normal magazines.
I hope to see how the Pathfinder does in footage of HvZs this year.
@@Burasta I hadn’t seen any reviews on it yet or bought one so I didn’t know anything about it to feel like I could mention it. My only grip is that it doesn’t work with older rival mags, and the only reason the rival mags were changed was because Nerf didn’t want Dart Zone compatibility.
I learn this from play competitive paintball, of always having a back up set up. just in case something happen day of so you are not, like you said, scrambling around to find something and you might not be familiar with. This is great advice!
One day, one day I will get to an HVZ....and I shall be armed with either a Villainator or a Turbo Advance depending on my mood.
I can highly recommend the Helix as a backup blaster. It's still on store shelves, relatively high capacity. Hopper fed for easy reloads from just stuffing some rival rounds in a pocket so no need to worry about magazines. And pretty reliable for a hopper blaster.
I will never forget OSUNDEAD 2020 it was small and rainy, but loads of fun! Thanks for the video! Bangarang!
I'll never forget you trying to tag me with my own blaster at that one.
Personal Minnimal Loadout
Hades with custom grip
Dump Pouch with Rival Rounds
Snacks and Water in backpack
Perfect
Bangarang Captain, good luck to you and the crew in the coming battle.
Administration: "Sorry. Tactical Bear is too tactical to be allowed"
Thank you for the video, Sir. One of the more useful guides on the Inturwebs as it makes sense without making compromise.
Yes! Yes! Yes! Loadout videos again!!!!!!
Yay more auxiliary training! One of my personal favorite seises
Duct tape gear would probably have less scrutiny, so consider that instead of black tactical stuff
If your HvZ allows half lengths like we do (SWNC), you can easily tone down the AF Conquest Pro with an AF Liberator spring, maybe a 788 spring too.
With the Liberator spring in my CP, I hit 100-110FPS, which is HvZ safe for something like Endwar! With the EAT becoming scarce online and in thrift stores, the Conquest Pro can fill its place so long as the HvZ allows half lengths~
Personally, my loadout is dual-wielding Fortnite Flares and a lot of mega darts.
for this, maybe a fishing vest, a mediator and two gym bags attached to a belt. the first gym bag would have 2 full 35 dart drums and the second a dump pouch. mediator primary with the tristrike stock and barrel on it and the missile holder attachment for rockets.
Can't believe that the local Walmart and Target has become a Nerf armory.
I’m actually very new to the hobby so my load out is only minimalist. 3 of the belt pouches from FFW one for ammo one my hammer shot and one for my mega Magnus (for special zombies) my primary is the rival charger since I can top it off at any point but also because it was cheaper than a hades on a one pint sling, and finally a small backpack where I keep my water I tried to make a scout/ light infantry build but since I have the backpack if anyone ask me to I could also double as an ammo mule. Oh and my inside jacket pocket ( since I’m from up north and it mostly cold) I have the the two shot jolt from last years “the box”
Sounds like a perfect loadout!
I always run a minimal loadout so everything else I run on top of is candy :)
I love these loadout videos so much. I've only recently returned to the hobby and they've been both a great help and a ton of inspiration. Here's hoping I'll be able to play my first HvZ soon🤞
Thank you Cap for all you do.
Greetings captain! Unfortunately, I don't know how long it will be until I am able to send the Danmark to. Sorry! Hope to send it soon! (And a minimal load out is just what I needed, thanks!)
A good note to add for backups is something like has large areas to clear jams too, preferably short barrels too as long barrels are a nightmare to clear when a dart curls in a 6"-10" barrel.
I would put that down under "reliable" but that is an excellent point.
I've always been debating modding my Chaos Orbit, but it might make a good backup loadout for HvZ. If I do mod it, then I might use the takedown which was always intended to remain stock, as an emergency blaster. Not as great for a scavenger/quick reload as other options, but stock Rival is pretty solid.
Having a back up is just smart in general. My Slingfire primary has started feeding incorrectly (Cali has had a lot of dramatic weather changes) - I would be remiss if I didn't have at least my Rampage or Sledgefire.
Super informative video!! Thanks for all the knowledge!
I always appreciate a Keep It Simple Stupid approach
Great advice and I think the first video of this kind.
Thank you for the video i never though that elevation would play that much of a difference in FPS. Thank you!
Thanks Cap! 😁
Hi Cap, i was thinkin of a hades as my backup
sock and a hammershot + a jolt/bigshock is the most minimal :)
Just want to plug the Turbo Advance/Superdrum. Pump action with a 40 round drum that can easily be made rear-loadable, and can use any type of standard diameter dart. Several color options if you can still find it, easily swapable drums. Such a good blaster.
Of course, the Villainator is kind of a successor to it, but looks more like a classic firearm than a toy in my opinion
Yup. The turbo advance is a perfectly good HvZ blaster.
Bangarang!
Never forget the potency of a hoodie pocket full of socks
Oh absolutely! Sock Ninja is so viable a loadout they got their own video.
Socks are pretty minimal and inoffensive
For me it would just be my hammershot. It’s no proton pack but it’s reliable.
You cannot go wrong with hammershots in my opinion.
video posted 12 sec ago? yes, I do want to watch it!
Useful
Verry sound advice sir. My standard loadout is usualy a hammershot and sweet revenge on my thighs, dummppouch full of darts and a roughcut with a stock attatchment. If allowed i usualy have a dedicated sock pouch on my belt
I'm curious how your Villinator ended up? The last video on it, you mentioned changing out the K26 for K25. Would love to know the final specs.
All I ever carry is my Lynx or Skewer and my Gecko or a Villainator and a mk 2 or Hammershot. 2 extra mags with my Lynx or Skewer, dump pouch .
My blaster ideas:
Nexus Pro or Max Stryker (with an OOD tuning cap) or a stock DZ Villainator.
Thanks for making this video! Just out of curiosity, how did you put an N-Strike barrel lug on the end of the Alpha Trooper?
Several people make (made?) 3d printed muzzles (I think Cap has a vid on one of you want to dig for it) but nowadays your probably better off getting an accutrooper which has one from the factory.
^^ what Bean said. I bought it off Etsy.
Thanks!
I have been wanting an excuse to buy a hades. Now just need to find a place to play hvz where I live lol.
Can you please make a new loadouts series?
I have yet to be in any events due to my locale in the Netherlands and a lack of a suitable vehicle, but I do watch these videos as a way to take notes and have some knowledge on loadouts and the like.
slightly unrelated, I do wonder how common the Infinus was or is in HvZ?
I seem to recall seeing a few.
Informative as always Cap! My friends and I all run Nexus Pros with long darts. Anyone have an idea if they are under 120fps?
Out of the box? No. They did harder than 120.
@@CaptainXavier That is what I thought. I guess I will have to get some spacers from Out of Darts.
What are the bigger HvZs that are capping at 120 FPS? I ask not to contest what you are saying, but rather to try to be prepared.
Last I checked (which was 2019) Endwar, Ragnaroctoberfest, West vs Zombies, PSU, and UMBC at least.
@@CaptainXavier Thanks for the reply. Something to take into account.
How mobile is this loadout/ could you go over some really mobile/ non restrictive loadouts?
This is pretty much as mobile/non-restrictive as it gets. If you want to be even more mobile, move the holster and the mags to the belt so they are not swaying with your legs as you run.
Now I won't lie I haven't watched through all of these videos but I was talking with somebody who has and they didn't bring it up we were curious what's the appropriate amount of ammo to bring to an HvZ
I do cover this in another video. It depends on the size and style of HvZ. But as a general rule bring a full loadouts worth per mission. So if there are 5 missions bring 5 full reloads worth of whatever your load out is. How much ammo is in your loadout depends on the loadout. (See my loadout videos for advice on that)
Hey Cap,
What's the rules on using tech for events. I.E. say flash bangs no bang. Nerf grenades/claymore all the way up to drones and such.
As I've gotten into the hoppy I've noticed alot of people focus on mods so I'm thinking about tech ideas and boy do I got some doozies but something tells me theres a lot more limitations than I'm thinking about already during my brain storms. Just curious your thoughts about the "area"
99.99% of big events are not going to allow any of that. Too dangerous, too complicated to referee, to much of a hassle for Moderators to want to deal with. To really be able to utilize all the really fun toys (and I have many myself) you are going to have to find very specialized games or host your own.
@@CaptainXavier Rodger that. Thanks Cap.
I take
Hi Cap
hi
@@CaptainXavier how do you find this February day in North America treating you? :)
Quite well. And you?
@@CaptainXavier rather well, it would be better if it weren't so damp. :)
Shotgunner loadout?
That's...not an actual question...
Are you asking for examples? What mine would be? If they are viable? The pros and cons? Throw me a bone here man! ;)
@@CaptainXavier id love to see a shotgunner load out video boomdozer with the modified drum, sledgefire, shell strike etc
You should do a key 26 Blaine saw Nerf gun to see if it can cause that would be cool for cloud
...what?
I'm hoping to have an HVZ where I live and I believe in a free land if you wanted to show up with a blaster hitting 300 fps I would let you run it unless we had children under 13
You are welcome to run your event however you want. But I would never attend a HvZ that allowed 300 fps blasters. I wouldn't even attend an HvZ that allowed anything over 150 fps. That just does not sound like fun and I play to have fun.
issue with that being youre sending unarmed zombies against blasters that will leave welts on people minimally covered. some pvp events allow blasters that hot, but also include minimum engagement distances meaning you cant shoot anyone closer than that distance. that fps cap is way way too high for people unable to properly shoot back
Hey Xavier can the buzzbee interceptor take a k26 my friend recently gave me one and I wanted to mod something
Go watch episode 47. ;)
If 120 is max, that takes the auto rivals off the table. Eww
Most stock Rival hits 100 fps...
@@CaptainXavier thx for the reply,,
Perses feels higher, but your better versed then me, so I'll take your word on it.
Did you happen to chronograph that Proton khaos you featured? I'm curious what it is.
I can guarantee you, all Stock Rival blasters are 100 FPS or less. Definitely well under 120.
Rival blasters on 3s Lipos (like my Khaos) tend to hit around 120-125.
Are there really college administration that would say no camo? Even if you look like a Reese’s peanut butter cup?
Would they also have a problem with your sling? Or a black/camo camelback?
I’m curious on how these decisions are made/why by college admin, and whether better communication can help for all party’s involved.
I’ve never been to an HvZ game, I think my local uni had one in ‘12 or something, but I’d be really curious about the decision making process to announce last minute “stock blasters only”
Especially being from Canada, if I traveled down stateside for an event in California or the south, I’d definitely need to carry at least 1.5 L of ice water/sports drink per mission due to the risk of overheating.
You being Canadian certainly helps explain your ability to underestimate to stupidity and absurdity of US College Administrations and their arbitrary rulings. All of the things I mentioned in this video I personally experienced at various games. None of these situations were in anyway hypothetical or hyperbolic. They all happened. And plenty more I did not mention. HvZ in the USA is a constant battle between the Clubs and the Administrations.
@@CaptainXavier I’m sorry, that sounds like an unnecessary headache for club organizers especially.
When I heard you say “no camo” and “stock blasters only” I was first thinking “what about those Walmart nexus pros that are purple camo?” but I guess if they want stock only it means you have to put in the original spacer at 150fps, and not bring it down to 100 haha
Those sound like headaches and somewhat unpredictable at times haha.
Hopefully we can eventually find a way to iron out some of the unnecessary headaches, cause I can see how some of that stuff could deter new comers to the hobby
Me want
