New To The Forum, And Kinda New To Paintball
Hey everybody, I'm new here to the forum, and pretty new to paintball as well. About a year ago I wound up getting a Diablo Wrath, new hopper and new tank, along with some gear. I only played with it once, and everyone I played with stopped playing as much shortly after that, so I never really picked it up again. Lately I've had people asking me if I wanted to start playing again, so I figured I would. Thinking about it, I decided it's something that I would enjoy really getting into, so I was wondering if I should get a better gun.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Why bother? If the gun is barely used and still in perfect working order I wouldn't waste the money on buying a new marker. Besides you wouldn't want to invest in another gun, and then in a few months find the ppl you are playing with stop playing. Then you would have 2 markers collecting dust. Just stick with what you have and if you find yourself playing a lot, and find that you have outgrown the marker then get a new one or upgrade your current.

There's nothing wrong with a wrath, people don't like them because there FASOR's. There's nothing inherently wrong about the system, if anything it's a simple hybrid that works well enough.
I would stick with the gun you have, maybe put a few simple upgrades(I believe the LPR is upgradeable, and you could always go with oone of the universal t-boards) and have fun playing.

Should I maybe get some PB pants, gloves or possibly a mask?
All I have as of right now is the Wrath w/ the drop forward, Empire Reloader B, Empire 4+2 harness and a cheap V-Force mask. I'll go with the advice you guys gave me and hold off on a new marker for a little while. If I find out these guys wanna get serious and start playing more, then I'll look into getting a new marker, but for now, the Wrath will have to do.

the wrath is an excellent gun. you won't need to upgrade till' you play serious paintball. Get the mask called the flex
they are 60$ new and are the most customizable mask in the market, and imo, have the best venting for warm days and doesn't trap your voice, other masks though are profilers, dye i3's, invisions, flex 7.

Keep the wrath, it's a nice little marker. Get one of them ceramic or carbon fibre barrels, and a wrath t-board if you feel like upgrading, but otherwise the marker's solid.

the wrath is great and should be good enough until you play more seriously.
