    As I explained before, IMO, it's more a matter of how long you last in battle. If you're going to die in 1.5 minutes, shield is your friend. If you're going to last 4 minutes, Bandage... this is regardless of play style. Also to note, considering your avatar is an enforcer, Yellow boats get heavy advantage from a Bandage... fight up close, and then run away to heal.

    After finishing out my last Bandage training, it now maxes out at 102 HP. Small Shield adds +1621 HP, which means the Bandage has to tick just 16 times (1:20) to match the value of the shield, and everything else is gravy. Almost every one of my matches I'm healing more than 1:20.

    Tesla Bolt usage has gone way down after the nerf. I do get burned up by Flare occasionally which ticks much faster than Bandage, but I'm under 100% HP more than 1.5 minutes over the course of a game. For me Small Shield has the advantage in TDM and fleeting with a Fixer, but that's about it.
