    Dear SE,
    Sometimes LAGGGG in game does not switch your ammo or gear when you press the macro button, and thus shoots off your hard to obtain ammo and causes players to become extremely frustrated.

    <wait 1>, it'll save you. AND NO, don't use it on your quick draw macros, just your /ra and /ws. The only time I've ever lost a bullet was trying to find marksmanshit procs out of th menu... 6 more bullets in my Dbox that it woyld be wonderful if they stacked.

    Are you asking ppl to put <wait 1> between WS o.o? Like /equip ammo "Whatever ammo you WS with" /wait 1 /ws or just /wait 1 /ws after you click gear swap macro?

    If it's not what you mean, then forgive me and ignore my rant.

    But if that's really what you mean, then it's kinda lol.....

    A lot of posts on this thread surprises me quite a bit in every way. Such as suggesting ppl to manually change bullet, or put wait 1 for WS macro. No wonder majority of COR I pt with doesn't know how to deal dmg properly because nobody really takes the DD aspect of this job seriously.


    You don't ask DRKs to manually change WS gear between TP phrase, you don't ask DRKs to use /wait 1 before WS, because by doing so, it will severally lower their DPS. The only way to deal dmg properly in this game besides gear grind/use proper gear set, is to click everything fast, swap gear before animation went off, WS right after 100 TP so no single TP is wasted, WS/JA as soon as it's up so no recast time is wasted and so on.

    Back to the topic, the ammo problem, the only effficient way that to solve it that I know of for now, is to use 3rd pt tool. SE's reply pretty much is like "If you shoot it, that's too bad for you, go use 3rd pt tool"

    Okiputs answer is somewhat acceptable if SE manages to create a client that magically eliminates every cause of lag spikes, and with macros that never ever fail.

    Too bad this isn't the case.

    Bit of an expansion on the subject, but I think the ammo slot (and related ranged slot) needs to be revisited by the dev team (and have rare 1-shot ammo always available as 1/1 enchanted usable item dispensers).
    It should not be possible to mix a ranged weapon (bow, xbow, gun, throwing) with non-matching ammo (arrows, bolts, bullets, shells, throwing ammo), but it should be possible to equip anything else in the ammo slot. You won't be able to use the ranged weapon if it requires ammo, but if you only want it for stats it should be ok.

    This would allow a returning weapon to be used with stat ammo:


    Just want a weapon for the stats, since you lack skill or weaponskills to use it?


    And one that totally makes sense:
