Can you please make Nitro Boost unable to be used while holding the flag instead of instantly dropping it. Other items have this already such as the Goblin Gliders. Literally just blew a game of Twin Peaks because our FC died and I picked up the flag and hit Boost for it to just instantly drop and the enemy team return the flag. What a joke. I shouldn’t have to look up whether or not an engineering item is going to drop the flag I’m carrying.

It’s called a learning opportunity.
Now you know not to do it in future games.
Helpful side note: if you use nitro boost right before picking up a flag, you get the speed bonus without dropping the flag.

Yes now I know but the feeling of failing my team due to a stupid mechanic is awful. Thank you for the tip though I will use that in future matches. Either way I still think it should be unusable just to prevent people from encountering the same problem I just faced.

Possibly.
I don’t even know if the “nitro before pickup flag” tip is supposed to happen. I am inclined to think that it’s not supposed to happen since we can’t nitro while holding the flag.
It possible it might have been overlooked as do a lot of small things. It’s hard to think of every possible scenario when creating abilities and mechanics which is why we have testing lol. Even then stuff still goes unnoticed.
You can use the Swiftness potion which gives 50 percent speed while holding the flag
Not really the point i’m trying to make lol
Ya I know just a tip on the potion that would work

…But you’re a Demon Hunter.
The risk of engineering gadgets!
Would rather not baby proof the game.
If you nitro boost While holding flag it drops…
