Ammunition
From Destiny 1 Wiki
- Main article: Ammunition Consumables
There are 3 types of Ammunition: Primary Weapon Ammunition, Special Weapon Ammunition and Heavy Weapon Ammunition.
Players can pick up various types of ammunition from fallen enemies and crates. Ammo drops in Destiny belongs to private loot. so any glowing ammo block you see on the ground is always for you.
Primary ammo is plentiful, and players always spawn with it. Special ammo is less plentiful. In PvP, it might be ideal to pick up these Special Ammo Crates. Heavy Ammo enables the player to use their Heavy Weapons. They are the most scarce and players should always pick them up.
- In PvP, Ammo Crates can be shared. When a teammate activates a crate, it will also create ammo for any nearby teammates. This is true of both Special (Green) and also Heavy (Purple). It’s a great idea to gather teammates around a Heavy Ammo Crate so everyone gets ammo, but beware that some enemies will try to bait you with this.
