How much extra water do you carry with you even if the is a hose and water soure in the battle area?
This is for your gun which you usally use and ,if any, or your side arm's extra water altogether.

I've gone whole wars without having to refill, and at the most I refill once or twice. Meaning I carry little, if any, extra water.

thanks to the invention of the qfc, i now carry more water with me. the backpack that i carry has two bottle holders which can fit one liter waterbottles so i carry 2 of them on my backpack. i don't usually use them but they come in handy incase anyone else does or you get thirsty.
more reliable then a max-D trigger

Even in soakfests, I can last quite a while with my 2000 or 1000. Tap shots are really effective, and really help your water supply.

I used to carry around 3-4L in my backpack, though I haven't in a while. Now I just use a nearby hose, and conserve my water. Hopefully I'll go back to 3L+ over the summer.

It is fun carrying them externally on a backpack. After a while into the fight, it is fun not to even use the hose; refill with your 2 liter (which by now is probably warmmmm and hottt from sitting in the sun for so long)
If you think that cold water makes people wince, think about warm water- it is like being sprayed with slime ><

How true! It's like being sprayed with clean slime! You sir, are two-tenth genius!
Anyways, on those EXTREMELY RARE expected water fights 3 years ago. I would usaully bring 1000ml of water. But never use 'em because taps shots are surprisingly effective and the water source is always a few meters away.

Also fun is to leave the water resevoir empty in the sun for a few hours (sorry those of you who don't have detachable pressurized resevoirs, those XP 35s are good for something :p ) for a while, filling it up with warm water makes for an awefully unbalanced fight. Sure, you can drench and soak people with a CPS 2000 with warm water, but why miss the chance to trickle on them with a little water squirt (XP35 beauty again
) to recreate a warm pee feeling? It even comes complete with sounds!

with a water source, i would just use tap shots and refill alot with no water source (how i usually play), i would bring 2 bottles, one liter each, or the big gallon jugs for milk (WASH THEM)

So far I haven't gone into battles where a lot of carried water was necessary, the last fight I carried 2 .5L bottles and never used them, but this time I'll probably use them since I can simply open them up and jam it into the flash flood for a boost. I might see if I can find pants with larger pockets and carry the 2L bottles instead and with a few water balloons but I'm not sure.
