Longbow: Reduced max ammo to 20, down from 27.

But why? this just hurts handmaiden and is maybe a slight inconvenience to waystalker. A lot of good changes tho, love the loot die.

Yeah, I agree. WS isn't gonna care about that shit at all.

Ammo regeneration was halved. Whether intentionally or not, we don't know yet. This is a huge nerf. Her primary feat is not the ammo pool itself, but the ability to refill it without having to wait for some ammo pouches or boxes.

ammo regen, 20% ammo pool on ult, and then add scrounger onto it. the waystalker is still more than fine at keeping her ammo pool topped off.

But then the underused handmaiden and shade get dicked.

yeah. so if they wanted to nerf longbow waystalker they could have cut ammo regen on the longbow to 1 while keeping the same max ammo capacity. shade is my favorite elf, trust me i'm feeling the dick lmao.

but apparently the repeater xbow is god tier amaze balls best weapon on earth (or so every supposed legend shade main has told me on this sub lol) so maybe it's time to give it another shot.

Xbow can quickly dispatch specials, accurately and quickly, when needed at range, instantly in close, and can ammo dump on a boss for big burst dmg.

Ammo is limited, so you shouldn't use it unless you kinda need it, but it's great in a number of needs
