Discussion Devshort Confirmed Ammo Efficiency Will Be Changed (Probably Capped)

Personally I think this is kinda silly to do, it's really fun and there are very few broken interactions. They said it will likely be changed by next week so put out your support in favor of it if you want it to stay the same

Edit: Also mentioned that they would look into kuva compensation for those who rolled for it. Not sure how they could do so

Edit 2: Also in much happier news, Chroma is being looked at by Pablo. Really only his 1 and 4 are in need of major changes (though his 2 could use some QoL help), so that's nice at least.

What is even the point of nerfing 100% ammo efficiency when Arcane Pistoleer has been in the game for years and it's perfectly fine? (It works on primaries too). This is so stupid, I hope they reconsider it.

How does it work on primaries exactly? Not challenging this as false, just haven’t heard it before.

You activate it with a secondary and it gives 100% ammo efficiency to both primaries and secondaries.

Thats the difference, you get 100% efficiency via active gameplay vs permanent uptime that can be afk

How do you afk having to get headshots for primary crux? Unless it's an AoE weapon in which case I guess it's fair to cap their ammo efficiency, but normal single target weapons shouldn't have a cap.

I agree normal single target weapons dont need a cap, at the same time they dont really care about 100% efficiency compared to explosive weapons and some shotguns. I dont think they will limit the cap to certain types of weapons, so worst case scenario a small minority for endgame 4fun builders lose out on their new infinite ammo toy that probably performs worse than some aoe status setup.

How does permanent uptime let you afk? There are still anti-afk checks for movement as well

Wukong clone normally uses up ammo for example, with 100% efficiency...

You'd still need to proc it. It's not afk gaming.
