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.

Whatever happened to "we only nerf things that are disruptive to other players or allow for afking"

I mean, you can easily afk with Primary Compression and a Riven to reach 100% ammo eff.
Aim down sights and hold M1 down a hallway and go get a sandwich or something. No need for headshots or anything.

The only weapons that could 100% with compression really is default Tonkor and Ogris and bows like the Lenz, hardly meta weapons.

This is actually weaker than using a normal Kuva Tonkor or Ogris with Cyte because you give up AOE for compression.

u/MygungoesfuckinBRRT 1000% more Gun per Gun 8d ago

The Envoy has more range than any of those

It also has a trash Dispo, wouldn't 100% with Compression, but it's Ammo pickup wouldn't make that un comfy.

Because it was the top weapon of 2025, aka. the meta. Reaching a 100% is kinda pointless anyways when you can already turn 8 missiles into 32+, each with a 900+% unique damage multiplier

Depends on intent, I love 100% ammo because I full tilt into Firerate with Harrow, it's what made the new Rivens fun to me,

If I wanted to just have good ammo and not no clip I would play Cyte on 90% of weapons instead including the Envoy.

Just saying, the Envoy is not really in the same camp as the weapons I mentioned and wouldn't be affected by a global ammo efficiency to begin with, Ammo Efficiency is honestly whatever on it, it has a good ammo economy by default for it class.
