        About 30 seconds after you die. If you respawn and grab your old kit, they will stay until you die again.

            When you die by gunshot, you have roughly 15 seconds to be revived. After that, you have your kit on the ground for about 30 seconds. The clays having a limit of two and tied to a kit keeps the game from becoming a Clayspam hell. Even with all these limitations, it is pretty bad sometimes.

                If you die you get 30 seconds to respawn and pick up your old kit. I think this is a great little feature added to the game. Engineers who are defending a base don't have to drop the same mines in the same places as he did before his death if he manages to pick up his old kit.
                Same applies for spec-ops and C4.

                  way too long. when you die so should your claymores, but you got to love getting kills with them while your dead waiting to respawn. Mines also hang around for awhile after you're killed.

                    OKay, what about this scenario.

                    I am alive, and dropped 2 claymores. I restock from a support or from a ammo crate. Now I have another claymore.

                    If I drop it, will all 3 be active, or can only have 2 claymores active at a time?

                      From what I remember a sniper can lay down 5 claymores just like the other kits can lay down 5 items (e.g. medic, support,...)

                      Can't remember if this has been changed or not but I don't think so.

                        30 seconds after you die? lol


                        Isnt it

                        2 claymores you lay down and if you die as long as you dont go to another class they stay down until you put down another.

                          No. I can vouch no on this one. Cuz I always play sniper, and I was capping a flag all by myself on karkand. It was the one all the way at the top by itself. So I lay down claymores and am caping the flag. SUre enough, someone comes and kills me from a long distance away. So I am dead, and spawned back at the flag i just capped. I wait (sniper) for the person to come and try to cap the flag, and when he gets to the flag, my claymores dont go off.....

                          ....why didnt they go off? I just saw them when I respawned. well, they weren't there anymore.

                            i think most you can have down is 3, i was at the TV station in Sharqi, laid 2 then got resupply and laid another, all 3 were down at the same time (i could see them as they were closish together) but i got 2 kills with them??
                            I will find out tonight and get back tomorrow as im curious too now
