Ammo Drops

[stormeblade]

It would be nice if the ammo drops were more suited to the weapons being carried. I use my rifle way more than anything else and I'm always running low or out of ammo. I see alot of shotgun ammo but dont need it. Especially solo games, why bother dropping any ammo except what going to be used?

I think the issue is that rifle ammo drops are only 20 shots per drop... Which is just poor hindsight on the part of the warframe devs- Seeing as, shotgun ammo gives 10, when your clip sizes are pretty low.  And your max ammo capacity is like 120 unbuffed.  And pistol gives like 20, while your max ammo capacity is 200... So if you were to fix rifle ammo, it would have to give at least 50 per drop, to equal the 10% the other ammo packs give you.

 

But until they actually do something about this... I'd just use rifle ammo boxes, they're 1,000 credits each.
