Making Omphalos Bullet a Quickdraw only bullet

[Azagthoth]

There isn't any reason why this bullet shouldn't be Quickdraw only considering this is it's only applicable use. It would elimate some player paranoia and the frustration for those that have shot the bullet away by mistake.

This isn't a rage thread considering my Corsair is only level 51; this is something that has always bothered me about this particular bullet and other items of this nature.

They could also do what they did with the CP ammo, and turn it into a quiver/pouch.

This should just be standard operating procedure for any ammo that doesn't come in easily acquired stacks of 99.

I made a similar thread about this a little while back. Both idea are great.

While on the subject of bullets, getting slightly off topic here; Why aren't Corsair Bullets synthable? I have outleveled the need for them now, for the most part, but they's be great to be able to synth.

It would be nice if Squeenix added a larger range of bullets for COR - Maybe hold out hope in the new expansion ...

Greetings,

I have some feedback to share in regards to some of the suggestions in this thread for changing the functionality of Omphalos bullet.

While we understand that players are concerned about accidentally misfiring this item, unfortunately it is not possible to make so that it cannot be fired, such as certain throwing weapons that cannot be used, as it would also render it impossible to use Quick Draw with it.

They could also do what they did with the CP ammo, and turn it into a quiver/pouch.

The main reason why the Patriarch Protector’s arrow and Iron Musketeer's bolt was converted to the Combat Caster’s quiver/Iron Musketeer's quiver, which could be used to dispense ammo once every 168 hours, was to improve the situation where conquest points could not be spent on other items due to the need to replenish ammunition. As you may recall, it was quite difficult to earn conquest points at the time we introduced these quivers.

We understand that obtaining an Omphalos bullet is certainly not easy, but the high stats were set based on that factor and our stance is for players to take caution when changing out ammo, so we do not have plans of changing this.

This response is completely and totally unacceptable.
