How do I get the Wedge

[Bam]

I've been looking for the wedge for ages now. I now how to change between door-cam, shotguns and so (named large stuff or something in game [not playing now]), but how can I bring the wedges? Or is it something I don't have to pack, just use in-mission?

Equip it in your loadout and press 4, Twice if you have breaching charges.

Odd. I can see no wedges where one choose equipment. And while in-mission, no wedge symbol appear when I point towards the lower part of a door, only the "look under" symbol. This is regardless of where I try, at the corners or to the middle. The only thing I realize I haven't tried yet while playing is bending down. Could that be it?

Oh, I finally figured it out. There's 13 slots and I could lower the number of ammo clips. Will I lose a wedge every time I use it?

Wedges are consumable items. So yes, you will lose the wedge every time you use it. But you can also order your AI teammates to place wedges for you out of their own inventory.

Minor terminology nitpick, but we don't have any firearms in game that reload with clips. Everything is fed from magazines.

Oh, you're right, of course it should be magazines. I saw the word clip somewhere and it slipped into the text.

But – I just mention it – last game I took only one wedge with me, and I could apply it to many doors without replacing them. Maybe one slot holds a number of wedges. Must have used at least five of them.

That might be a bug, you can retrieve and re-use them but I don't think you can have 5 in one slot.

I would have to double check in-game but if you don't have other 'tactical' devices and you changed up the number of slots the game I think gives the maximum number of wedges you can carry.

Going to check some more. I have 4 SMG mag, 2 pistol mag, 4 flashbangs and 3 wedges now. But I must play a while to see if I ran out of wedges. Was just blown up and now it's too late to start a new game.
