Been there done that lol. Sucks royal, however for my instance it gave me an advantage for a brief while.
(
I had thought ivy but the rash I got was more like poison sumac according to what I've been told. I wouldn't be surprised if it was really sumac, I was playing in a swampy/marshy woodland with plenty of bushes that could have been sumac.)
When I slid into this patch I used it as cover for about an hour, sniped out one of the two opponents left then proceeded to stalk my last target, both of my teammates were out, so it was a one on one gig. (diving into this "patch" gave me the advantage, good cover, and very isolated)
Long story short I end up losing, basically had a duck duck goose match in a tall grass field (the stalk took me out of the woods and into a neighboring field), was in prone crawl for the majority of this stage, with the occasional pop up. The last pop up resulted in a western style draw, I wasn't the quickest gun in the west in this instance. :P
A few hours later during the clean up phase I start breaking out in this horrid rash, swollen tiger stripe marks on my arms, face, hands, and shins. Itched like crazy. This crap lasted for a few weeks.
