Why are some people so lost and act as if the OP said... "Hey Bungie, I want heavy ammo to be like how D1 was" Seriously, do some of you ever really think before you make a reply instead of, hey, I just read the title. The way heavy drops right now Bungie literally has their coding [b](Backwards)[/b] when using heavy ammo finder in certain areas in this game. That is ridiculous... on top of it, they throttle heavy ammo in this game and call that making certain events a "challenge" instead of using their bran and making things an actual challenge. So, since their system is broken adding being able to purchase ammo and leave how things are would improve things. Edit: All Bungie has to do is leave things how they are and apply the heavy ammo that you purchase to D-pad. it's something they should have done years ago. Or [b]They can do what they should have done a while back and fix their backward's coding and stop throttling heavy ammo, problem solved[/b]

DO NOT EQUIP MULTIPLE INCREASE DROP CHANCE MODS!!! They are seriously bugged right now. Equipping Only 1 heavy ammo perk will work properly if you equip more then 1 your drop chance decreases DRAMATICALLY. Im not joking their was a whole Reddit post that spent days testing the numbers and drop chances, equipping multiple of the drop chance perk makes things worse.

God you find something new to whine about every week don’t you Heavy synth should stay gone

Bungie will add them back in and interpret it as an enhancement. 10 cores per synth. As bronze189 stated, don't stack heavy perks. I still get purple with two heavy perks, but not as often. Add a Primary ammo finder into the mix and purple bricks become non-existent for me.

D1 I used 1000's of synths. But you know I actually prefer the challenge in D2 of occasionally not having heavy left. However I have found running both heavy ammo finder and scavenger for whichever heavy type I've equiped to be quite effective. Especially in gambit.

If they bring them back, I want them to have a few changes. First, I would remove the cooldown. It literally served no purpose other than to annoy raid teams by making them wait 5 minutes. It should be removed entirely for convenience. Second, I would make them much more expensive. It was always kind of stupid how people had hundreds of them all the time. They made heavy ammo basically unlimited if you waited for the cooldown.

Eh. They just need to fix/buff the Ammo Finder perks, big time.

It's actually glitched to where you get less ammo to drop if you have more than one of the same Ammo Finder perks on. Just use one of each and I wouldn't even bother with Primary Ammo Finder because it already falls like rain.

Also this is like asking for bounties back so we can fly to every single destination and then play the game to be rewarded. It's obtrusive and honestly dumb [u]when you actually think about it[/u]. Lets not forget the issue is inconsistent ammo acquirement. So in other words it just needs to be made consistent as you play. Something mission design should be responsible for. Putting it on the economy is going to make that the problem instead.

No. To be very honest, no. This is better. I tried D1 synth the other day and didnt like it. Can you imagine going into your menu while completing the Niobe Labs puzzle? This is better.

Was doing Escalation Protocol the other day and not a single heavy brick dropped till the 6th wave, it's so annoying sometimes

They definitely fixed the ammo economy problem bud.

I've had gambit games where the enemy team constantly got heavy drops while I didn't get a single brick to drop the entire match.
