The Lt Interceptor and Interceptor has 450 ammo per rack, and has 2 gunmounts.
The hvy interceptor has 3 gunmounts, but still has 450 ammo...
Shouldn't the Heavy Interceptor have 50% more ammo (675 per rack for its extra gun) so that it doesnt run out faster than its weaker counterparts? Or was there a time when the heavy int did have more ammo for its 3rd gun before it got nerfed?

When you're at it, can we put booster2, 3 and heavy boost into exp?

hvy boost is used by adv figs only, not ints...

I dunno if I want more ammo on the heavy int, but there should be a progression. Less ammo for the lite one as well.
IF you want to perk the heavies (slight eyeroll) then maybe 400 / 450 / 500? That would balance the change a little by giving the light ints a smaller clip.
/edit
Honestly, I have no idea who would feel that a heavy int doesn't have enough ammo.

If they had 675 ammo per clip, they would be capable of soloing more miners without reloading with even low KBs.

You seriously think that heavy ints need a perk? Really? The third gun allows you to do damage 50% faster, which is plenty of a perk over regular/light ints.

I hope at least the rest of this community recognized the irony in my post.
