Select your loadout. The most important things in your bag should be at least two Nerf, Dart Zone, or 3D printed blasters. If you have 5 to 6 blasters at your home, then bring three. Make sure to read your games rules beforehand to see what blasters and blaster mods are allowed Choose a primary blaster. This will be your main blaster and should have common type of ammo like 12.7/70mm or 12.7/36mm if you are using a dart blaster or .75cal if you're using a Rival blaster. This blaster should be light in weight, normal in size, and should preferably be compatible with either N-Strike magazines, Talon mags, Katana mags, or Dart Zone Pro mags. Choose a secondary blaster. This will be your second most important blaster as it will be the one saving your life on the battlefield after your primary blaster runs out of ammo. The best secondaries are lighter and have something your main blaster doesn't (such as faster rate of fire, special dart types [if you have rules for them], or lower FPS to tag closer targets). Choose a backup blaster. This blaster should not see use unless you have no time to reload. It should be as small as a Jolt, Triad, X-Shot Micro, or Double Strike so you can carry it in your pocket or on a tactical vest. Choose a melee weapon (completely optional and some games don't allow it). If you have a Nerf sword or chainsaw so you can use it to silently attack your enemies and not get caught!
Bring plenty of ammo. Bring ammo more than you think you will need during the war, especially when you have a high rate of fire blaster like the Perses, Worker Phoenix, or modified Rapidstrike. Make sure this ammo is optimized for your blaster. Dart Zone Pro darts work best for compression barrels, Dart Zone wafflehead darts work best for pretty much everything else, but if you're using a shotgun and want more spread, try using Nerf Elite-style darts.
Bring a bag. You will need a big and a good quality bag to put your stuff in it because you will soon get tired of carrying all your stuff in your hands.
Bring food and drinks. If the war is very long then don't hesitate to bring food and drinks with you because running can be exhausting. Make sure that your game allows this.
Communication devices. A phone connected to a team chat application such as Discord can do quite well. Use your communication device to speak to your team.
Make sure to grab eye protection. Nerf darts may not be lethal, but a shot to the eye will still hurt and might cause injury. Sunglasses work quite well to block both darts and UV rays, but if you're playing a high FPS game, impact-tested goggles or glasses might work best.
Bring a flashlight if the mission will go into the night. Nerf-made flashlights are extremely weak, so maybe get a Nerf to Picatinny rail adapter and get an airsoft or firearm flashlight.
