I feel though, that the pulse effect would fit db the best. (but how would you explain a magical pulse off ammunition)
Same way you explain how walking over medkits instantly heals you, or how mercs can create an infinite number of deployables, only limited by cooldown.
DB isn’t exactly one for realism, lol
The ability is passive and not a pulse. It give bullets to nearby squad mates automatically.
PS: If anyone wants to disagree, watch the fresh-out-of-the-oven Role Call video from like 20 mins ago:
@STARRYSOCK
@Bestfinlandball
@Sorotia
by the looks of @MarsRover video her ammo ability isn’t all that good compared to the others.
She gives ammo to one person near her and it takes 30 seconds for the next ammo supply, making ammo stations and ammo packs more effective imho.

I wonder if was changed or if Shoe’s wording was bad on the role call video, because that does looks like an active ability, with a cooldown and all, contradicting it being a passive that gives ammo to nearby allies automatically.

Yeah I still don’t understand how it works. Mainly because giving ammo is all nice and good but the rocket launcher is freaking awesome!

Well, I prefered the younger one……Okay, I sound disgusting.
18-21 year old is okay yknow…
Depends on where you are. Under certain circumstances in certain parts of the world 12 year old is okay.

Oh, let me just strap two Macy’s store worth of leather to myself, and leave my left arm completely exposed to incoming projectiles, including shrapnel from my own rocket.
Yeah, her outfit doesn’t look very practical for urban warfare in an irradiated London. Very little armor, a completely unprotected left arm, and yoga pants, for Pete’s sake. She’s also not carrying any pouches or holsters or anything extra on her, unlike the other mercs.
Not to mention that her ammo printer thing is mounted over her crotch… yep, that’s not gonna be an issue at all in the heat of combat.

I guess two possibilites :
1/ She can give a fix amount of ammo packs then when it is empty, the cooldown starts ;
2/ She give ammo passively to others but if she uses her own ability to resupply herself, the cooldown starts. (more likely be this one)
EDIT : Another guess that it might be more balanced : she gives ammo passively during x seconds when activating her abiliy. Then you have 20-ish seconds before the next supply.

Well to be fair why does Thunder need a big ass backpack like that? Or Fragger? Why is Vasilli wearing a ghille suit in an urban environment? Where is Fletcher’s body armor? The dude is literally wearing just a tank top.
It’s impractical sure, but it looks bad ass without looking sexual or anything like that.

I just can’t believe they named the Scar H, Shar - C.
That’s even less creative than an SMG called SMG-9.
Green loadout card in the thumbnail - new event incoming? Or is it an Obisidian-like thing since her model is a different?
What. An. Awesome. Fucking. Caracter. Design. I was resigned we would end up with some Italian hairy dude with a name like Javelin. Instead we have a swedish goddess.
And those damn sexy curves she has. With the laser targeted rockets. I mean. I’m no perv.
This is glorious.
I feel SHARC is gonna be underrated, considering it’s being the long rifle equivalent of Blishlok, BR -16 definitely gonna overshadow it.

the shark does look like Galil
Israeli gun for nordic merc? wut?
It’s a sort of futuristic Scar-H, which is Belgian…
400 damage per rocket though, jesus. I mean, sure she has a warmup time and you can shoot it, but if it’s anything like trying to shoot a snitch, it’s not going to be easy, especially since it seems to fly faster than the snitch even in its “slow” guided mode. And needs 20 damage to be destroyed, so one shot isn’t going to cut it for a lot of weapons.
Fragger has a sort of warmup time too, but his grenade isn’t necessarily instant death.
Of course I’ll have to see how she plays out in game, but well, I’m not really looking forward to more cheap one-hit kills. And here I thought things would get better in that regard with the fletcher nerf…
