His gun works perfectly fine without the 1.5 and he needs the speed to place down his traps around the map. The objective is the most likely place to get droned out, fuzed, or entered by attackers through walls.

God no, not worth it at all. I really don’t understand this raging hard-on that everybody has for the 1.5x. I completely understand why it’s good, but for a lot of people it’s an entirely make-or-break feature as to whether or not they play an op.
