Primed Sniper Ammo Mutation is a sniper rifle mod that converts any unused ammo type into Primary Ammo. The affected weapon will only convert ammo while equipped, and will not convert any ammo type used by holstered secondary weapons until their own ammo is full.
Converted ammo is denoted by a 
symbol. The final amount of ammo restored is rounded to the nearest integer.

Acquisition[]
- This mod can be purchased unranked from Baro Ki'Teer for
140,000 and 
400. Note however that Baro Ki'Teer's stock changes with each appearance, and may not have this item available at every time.
Tips[]
- Functions well with Sentinel's
Vacuum, Chesa Kubrow's Retrieve and Beast's Fetch, which all automatically collect unused ammo as needed. - Mutated ammo always rounds up, resulting in converted ammo even with Primed Sniper Ammo Mutation being completely unranked, saving all capacity cost. This means the effect of unranked Primed Sniper Ammo Mutation is equivalent to fully ranked on weapons with 1 ammo pickup.
- Rifle Scavenger applies to mutated ammo pickups in addition to normal pickups, and counts after ammo mutation's rounding. For example, on
Rubico Prime, it increases all ammo pickups from primary and secondary pickups to provide 38 and 35 ammo respectively, with max ranked Primed Sniper Ammo Mutation.
Patch History[]
Hotfix 32.3.3 (2023-02-17)
- Fixed being unable to equip Primed Sniper Ammo Mutation on Snipers.
Update 32.3 (2023-02-15)
- Fixed weapons that formerly used Sniper ammo appearing when using the term “sniper” to search in the Arsenal despite not being categorized as a Sniper weapon.
- This would affect a weapon like the Lenz, which now uses Primary Ammo. It can still be found in the Arsenal when searching using the term “Bow”. You can still find your Rubico Prime using the term “Sniper”, so worry not!

- Made the following changes to Mods/Arcanes in light of the above ammo changes (stats shown at max rank):
- Primed Sniper Ammo Mutation: Now converts Secondary ammo pickups to 92% of Ammo Pick Up.
