Can Someone Tell Me How Ammo Scavenger Mods Are Any Good At All?

[Aspari]

Because I don't see a point with these mods. They feel like bona fide noob trap (oxy moron intended) saying you'll get more of the ammo type the mod is titled after. When I first looked at the artifacts, I thought I'd get a boost in the ammo I get per drop. Later I find out that they only increase the drop rate after seeing the ammo drops giving me the exact same amount of ammo I would have had prior to equipping them. After that I figured out that it screws with the RNG and not in a fun way either.

These are essential when using sniper weapons as they have lower ammo pools and sniper ammo drops less than any other ammo type, the alternative is to carry several ammo packs. I will also use pistol scav if I am  soloing a boss run with pistol only, something I started doing a while back to challenge myself.

They should remove Rifle Amp and turn each Scavenger into a dual purpose Scavenger/Amp.

I use snipers and I have never needed the scav aura.  I agree they are useless unless someone really wants to stick with their boar or vipers.  And even then its hard to justify.

there are occasions when you simply need more ammo, most of the time it happens when your weapons are modded for very quick ammo consumption and reloads.

They should all be rolled into one mod.

 

Ammo Scavenger:  You pick up x% more ammo from any ammo drops.

 

I reckon at max rank, 100% would be decent enough so that people would have reason to consider using this over any of the other far more useful auras.

This.

This is good too.

Agree that they should be universal. Right now they are basically a selfish mode crutch that players with bad ammo efficiency weapons need to use in the place of something that would actually benefit the whole group.

[LazyKnight]

They are all 100% useless because of ammo packs, I would rather slot rifle amp and need less ammo anyway. If they were combined into one so you got all types of ammo at a much large amount per pick up it would be worth slotting.
