- 250 dmg/Ton
- Ammo Bonus should give +25%/Ton, not current miserable 12.5%/Ton; need 8 Tons, to get 1 extra, What The Hell, who can equip 8 Tons? it's so difficult; only a handful of 'Mechs have enough slots and few Dakka Hard Points, or Missiles, so 1 of them gets the 8 Tons, with 4 Hard Points of each, which is also rare on 'Mechs; I don't have lots of 'mechs; anyway, the ammo bonus is too low

Most dakka assaults run 8+ tons of ammo for 2k potential damage.

Clan or IS? because weapons fire diffrent amounts of ammo and the skill tree is diffrent for each faction.

Really? have surveyed everyone?
A good practice I've heard is 2T/dakka
, I like dakka, and I rarely have 4 Dakka or 8T of dakka Ammo

I use the same skill options on both 'Mech types. Well, it should be equal for both types, it's fair

Ammo skills provide the same benefit regardless of faction.

Fixed that for you.

You can check Grimmechs right now and most heavies and assaults running pure ballistic will clock about 2k potential damage worth of ammo.
