Hello, Legends!
I would love yall's' feedback on my outlook on the way Apex Legends categorizes the ammo / weapon types!

@GizzyGabe First of all, kudos for exerting effort making the list! You listed the charge rifle under energy ammo which was the ammo used by the charge rifle before the inception of the sniper ammo class in season 4. I’ll still prefer the long bow to be back to its original ammo type, heavy ammo and the shotguns feel weird without having their own ammo type.
Other than those stuff, I agree with the rest. You listed a rocket launcher but fun fact, there’s actually a “new” ammo type in the files already called explosive ammo. It even has an icon already. Old leak but it’s still in the files probably just in case they add the EPG (grenade launcher) in the game. 😄
Explosive ammo icon datamined in the files
Sorry for late reply! That is correct - it is inspired by that. With the recent special playlist using swords and rocket launchers, my ideas seem more feasible now then ever LOL
I agree, the charged weapons seem like their own thing...unless they all just go energy? I dont know...it's like the weapon ammo should be based on the way it shoots, not necessarily the build of the weapon. E.g. like you said with the sentinel. You snipe with it but youre literally using energy and shield cells to power it...its not generic sniper ammo lol
