#AmmotudeAdjustment - BURST ammunition proposals
Richard LeMoon:
I had the random thought of -10% velocity. Perhaps in combination with other changes. This would discourage exclusive Burst of long range guns.

So you can kill the (underused) Burst Hades, the (also underused but just as good) Burst Light Flak and Burst Lumberjack?
Please. Just admit it already. You have 0 problems the way Burst is with the exception of it's usage on Hwacha and Artemis. Make a thread on those guns instead. I find the notion of Burst becoming an uninteresting ammo type very frightening.

I loooove Burst Hades and Burst Light Flak (and Burst Mortar!). I would love Burst Lumberjack but I suck. I feel like removing the clip size wouldn't affect how much I love/use Burst in those guns. But a velocity decrease? Yeah... that might make me avoid it. So I'm with Keb on this.
@Keb, what do you think of JUST the removed clip increase?

I'll admit it! I absolutely have a problem with the fact that the Artemis and Hwacha use Burst 98% of the time. There's no downside. There should never be a "one right answer" ammo for a gun.
Removing the superfluous ammunition increase, to me, makes Burst less attractive and therefore other ammos more attractive. Specifically, I foresee the removal of the Burst clip increase resulting in increased (but not overwhelming) use of Heavy in the Hwacha and Greased in the Artemis.

0%
-15%
+50%
It's the least extreme option. We want to nerf it to make it balanced, not nerf it into the ground.
Solidusbucket:
The argument here is a gun using one ammo exclusively is a problem. But, the heacha is sorta a one trick pony bar long range heavy clip hull integrity damage or vital component disable which is hard to pull off.
Its just a really good gun that doesnt need help with ammo because it only has one real job in the current meta thus taking only one ammo.
No other gun faces this issue except the mercury. To an extent the banshee (i blame heavy clip size reduction on that).
Srry, don't have any input. I'm shit at balance type stuff. I just don't have an issue with burst.
