Talk:Ava's assembler
ammo cost saved[edit source]
Greetings. I updated the accumulator/assembler page I found on toxic-blowpipe page concerning ammo saving rates. Having examined the numbers, I think it is unecessarily complicated.
This is because the money/ammo saved is not same outlandish, unheard of number, but is just reflective of the ammo retention rates themselves.
E.g, one dart for every five is 20%, and one dart for evrey 3.57 is 28%. This directly corresponds to accumulator/assembler 72/8/20 and 80/0/20, respectively.
The only issue is that it's not actually 20% less (500-100=400), it's 20% of the original...so 100.
I do think it is important to have a section that illustrates, in plain terms, that 80% ammo retention translates into 1/5 price reduction of ammo.
I don't feel that, at a glance, that is apparent and I think it definitely falls into the category of info that a wiki-user would want at a glance.
I'm not going to edit them at the moment, but I think that they should be toned down and adjusted.
