Say you're sniping and have two Atlases or Praetorians aligned? Or a teammate is grabbed and you need extra damage now? Or you just want see how much damage you can put out for lulz by thermal clip stacking?

Do you budget on elite waves?

Sometimes. It depends on a couple of factors. If I'm playing a grenade class then no of course. If I'm playing a weapon class I'll only do that from time to time, or often if I don't have spare ammo problems. If I'm playing a caster I'll usually do that.

Depends. If I'm using a grenade kit no...but if not I'll use them if I need something dead immediately for the good of the team.

A few times, but I mostly play casters. So I never find the need to focus on dishing out some extra weapon damage.

This is a very important tactic when doing speedruns, I always use pretty much all of my thermal packs when using a harrier on speed runs, makes a difference. In normal games, I try to be a little conservative with my thermal packs, but I still like to use thermal clips for damage quite often. If I'm using a GI, I'll cloak, use thermal clip pack, quickly empty the magazine of my weapon while quickly tossing a proximity mine for some massive damage. Or if using a TGI, I'll spam a maxed out stim pack at the same time as using a thermal clip and breaking cloak for some huge damage.

Yes, but I don't budget them, I use them in a more opportunistic fashion, when I feel the time is right.

I typically only use them like that during speedruns.

I TCP when a teammate is getting grabbed,
Other than that regularly on weapon classes.

I mean I know it does that, but I almost never use them for the damage bonus

I use them for the damage boost in platinum. In gold, they are grenade fillers.

several instances for me:

1) saving teammates from grabs
2) three shot HS claymore
3) Two shot GI Javelin

You're a grenade filler.

I take assault loadout into pretty much every match now. It makes everything high DPS.

for example GE + Assault Loadout + Harrier = god mode

Yes
Yes
No
No - if its not a grenade class

I usually use it when I feel like scorewh0ring so engagement time wont be interrupted with a trip to the ammo box. After that I consciously try to target the heavies...

Ive used them a couple times when a praetorian was rushing me, and I felt like holding the line.

The only other time Ill use them for the damage boost/instareload is my GI with Jav when I just feel like going crazy. More often than not I go overboard and end up shooting 7 times in a row without reloading though...

I typically use all of my thermal clips when I run my Typhoon GT, but only occasionally other than that. I like to get a good mass of armor in front of me, get that sucker spun up and burn through most of the clip, then enjoy the melting from the insta-reload and damage boost.

I've used one thermal clip ever. It was my second game of the demo.
