It was a void reactor mission in the middle of the hatchery. There is literally nothing around. The worst part was the few mobs that where spawning where mysteriously not dropping ammo of any kind. It was like the game was going out of its way not to give any. Ammo containers werent dropping ammo. Why called it that if they dont drop ammo -_-

If you're running out of ammo, one or more of the following apply:
  • Your weapons aren't modded, or are modded poorly/incorrectly.
  • You're underleveled for whatever it is you're attempting to do.
  • You're using multiple weapons of the same ammo class.
  • You are unskilled. "Git gud" as the kids say.

One trick I saw online and it works great.

1st gun is your gun you want to use. Mod it for damage.
2nd gun is the same ammo type, and will never shoot. Mod it for ammo (max ammo mods, and one ammo conversion, either impact or regular).
When you see your type of ammo, OR the conversion type of ammo, switch to your second gun to pick it up, then go back to the first for actually doing damage.

If you do this, you'll basically never run out of ammo again. It's so OP that some people think it should probably be fixed, because it feels like cheating, lol.

Just let the boss kill you, easy refill.

I had three different weapon classes Green White Orange level 40 with a good bunny. The is issue every time you teleport too place you have less the amount you can carry. Thunder Cage i carry can hold 580 i was in a rush i didnt want to go collect ammo first. This doesnt explain stupidity of the mobs and ammo containers NOT DROPPING AMMO. Also the fight wasnt hard it was just annoying. Because the boss i got had floating orbs of five of them. I am just saying every time you teleport to a place your guns should have max ammo.

There are times when it doesn't drop enough ammo. I think when we TP anywhere, we should get a FULL refill and some enemies need a review, with more ammo dropped so you at least end up leaving with as many rounds as you arrived with. It makes it difficult, for example, doing multiple runs of something, if you aren't getting your ammo topped up each time.

I saw this but i rather carry around three types of weapons. I will take someones advice in here mod my other guns. for ammo. But they really should make it so you have max ammo on every gun every time you move to place.

The void boss in the hatchery is one of the tankiest bullet sponges. Found out the hard way in hard mode.

Yes he is that is the issue he wasnt hard per say his attacks didnt hurt much. The fact he five floating orbs didnt help luckily they dont regenerated o.o Some bosses take more ammo the others.

Here's a hint: You can't run out of ammo unless you're screwing up. It's an entirely "on you" thing. In the context of your response: Go learn how to mod (you're clearly dealing no damage, which means no/bad modding), and possibly also improve your skill level.

Especially if you go back to Albion. All ammo should auto refill then at a minimum.

I used to run out of ammo then I modded , upgraded mods , put an activator/catalysts got them to 350k to 1 miliion dps and the bosses when flat before I could switch to my second weapon

3 things you can do:
- scan the enemy and use its weaknesses. Sometimes that can already make the difference
- farm for ammo on another mission beforehand (you can just leave a mission, once you'Ve killed enough enemies). Make sure to use ammo mods, if necessary
- let the boss kill you. If you're alone, then you'll instantly respawn and get the standard amount of ammo back. Just make sure to stand near the enemy while doing so, so that he won't recover health (though if he does recover, it should be less than what you could inflict with the amount you get back and if not, then your weapon is probably no strong enough).

Perhaps build your weapons to have extra ammo?

Crazy idea, I know.
