InThe Division 2, players will encounter some truly tough enemies that can take a lot of punishment before finally going down. Considering this, players need the best weapons and gear at their disposal if they hope to survive some of the game’s tougher challenges and get all the way toWorld Tier 5. One thing that can give players an advantage is special ammo types, butThe Division 2doesn’t make it clear exactly how players can switch between different ammo types in the game.
The different ammo types inThe Division 2are fairly typical. Players can find incendiary rounds they can use to light enemies on fire, as well as explosive rounds that can be especially helpful against armored foes. However, players will find that after they collect a special ammo type that their character is automatically using that ammo, potentially wasting it when it could be saved for a more powerful enemy later on in the mission.
Can You Change Ammo Types in The Division 2?
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem possible to manually change ammo types inThe Division 2. The only way to change ammo types is when looting a special ammo type in the game world, and once it’s equipped, there is no way to get rid of it except to expend that ammo or replace it with another special ammo type. This may be disappointing news to someDivision 2players, but on the bright side, there are other ways they can take on tougher enemies.
For example, once players manage to hit the endgame and reach the level 30 cap, they can choose a Specialization. At launch, there are threeSpecializations inThe Division 2, all catering to a different playstyle and with their own special weapon. These special weapons deal enough damage that players won’t need to worry so much about burning through special ammo types inThe Division 2.
Perhaps Massive Entertainment will add a way to manually switch ammo types inThe Division 2in a future update, but at launch, there is no way to do so.
The Division 2is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
