modded Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I have a 10 round mag on my strun, and 35 rounds in my twin vipers. I wouldn't go without them. I use ammo mods on my rifles, but that may change when I finally find a ice mod for it. -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeybadger Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 For certain weapons, reload speed is fantastic (gorgon), clip size is wonderful (Braton, Hek), fire rate is useful (paris), max ammo is a godsend (vipers). Granted, they are not the general use items that damage focused mods are, but they are very useful for certain weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honeybadger Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 But again. The extra ammo is just one set of ammo from the start. It doesn't make you pick up more ammo than you normally would. It does allow you to stockpile more ammo though. Dense mob encounters often drop more ammo than you can pick up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dEEkAy2k9 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 i am using ammo mods either on weapons where i can't fit in another damage/firerate/reloadspeed mod or on guns that chew up ammo fast. starting with 200 or with 400 ammo on the dual vipers makes a huge difference.

Zsword Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Ammo is very useful for those of us who take a more supportive approach to the game, I know it sounds silly, but not all of us want to deal insane damage. Having those extra shots in my Gorgon or Latron is a nother few seconds where that boss isn't regenerating shields, so that he doesn't negate our damage, or where that group of enemies is ice-slowed so that we have time to rap up what we're dealing with, or so that they aren't shooting the defence target.

plznohurtme Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Ammo boxes make max ammo mods pointless in most circumstances as you should be getting enough ammo from drops to cover in between. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veldt Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 The boar... mine is maxed and the ammo mods are a necessity even though I only use it for clearing large groups. It eats everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoxile Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Ammo boxes make max ammo mods pointless in most circumstances as you should be getting enough ammo from drops to cover in between. Ammo mods make ammo boxes pointless in most circumstances as I don't have to pause for a second fumbling around in my pocket trying to figure out what's a rifle ammo box, and what's a pistol ammo box. I am constantly participating in the fight when I have the spare ammo already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way I prefer max dps than qol that can be supplemented in a non dps reducing fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
