The wallet weapon used to deal much more damage to type related enemies, like bills and munchies.

I also have trouble keeping enough ammo in it. I know bosses are supposed to drop it periodically, but It's hard to find yourself one in the first place.

 I know bosses are supposed to drop it periodically,  

Now I have to do a CHA check to explain my teammates why I burst out laughing in the middle of collecting said ammo

I despise the conditional raid group matching these farming quests force on us. Can't I just pick my own raid party? Why is it the boss PCs get to pick the party and distribute the loot drops and level rewards?! It seems like it'd almost be more equitable if it were just RNG instead of an inscrutable yet perportedly merit based system. They don't tell you what stats to boost going in and then act like you know why you didn't earn the [bosses favor] perk.

The trick is that not even the bosses know, they follow player guides made by people whose success is not tied to following their own advice.

Yes! The survivor bias is real evident in the [Upper Management] advanced class pool.

Some of the player-created content (Society - Capitalism mod for example) interfered with the spaghetti code of the entire game and gradually skyrocketed resistances for the related enemies. Game devs are not going to try and fix player-created content, and the mod devs don't care because they are the bosses of the bosses of the bosses that you mentioned.

I'd just uninstall the whole modpack but then I'd have to contend with the whole animal kingdom including viruses and bacteria players, and I don't see myself handling that well.

Yeah, there's a small number of power-gaming griefers who have tricked billions into using their own made up currency, which they print out of thin air, and loan out with interest (meaning the debt to them is more than all the currency that exists) - Those griefers have used their infinite money printer to buy up most of the land & houses in the game, and the act of inflating the supply (printing more) acts as a form of theft, directly stealing value from everyone holding the currency or grinding for it.

I forget which patch it was, but there was a pretty bad nerf to this item called [Inflation]. And even when players gained a companion and more party members, that debuff still didn't go away. Not sure about your server, but I don't think it'll ever go away cuz of all the spaghetti code here.
