✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Combines two popular ammo mods into one package, saving load order slots.
- Omni Ammo adds a fresh twist by generating ammo over time, reducing scavenging.
- Active development (last updated Nov 2025) and solid community support (407 endorsements).
⚠️ Cons
- Requires Mass Effect 2 Legendary Edition only — no support for original ME2.
- May conflict with other gameplay mods that alter ammo or thermal clip mechanics.
For Mass Effect 2 Legendary Edition players who want to ditch the thermal clip system or tweak ammo behavior. Great if you enjoyed Classic Heatsinks or Universal Thermal Clips and want them merged. Skip if you prefer the vanilla ammo system or want a more comprehensive gameplay overhaul.
