I like using the medium ammo pickups, personally. Sometimes gibing 20 arrows at once feels like too much while 5 isn't enough.

Give two pickups of five? :P

I like the variety... middle sized ammo for the custom ammos isn't necessary per se, but the main ammotypes could use em.

Personally, I wouldn't consider this a bug, and don't really like the idea of medium ammo pickups (for some weapons, I agree, but not all). I'd remove the Firemace's medium pickup and leave the Chaos Runes, Lightbringer's ammo and the other new times (Which are more powerful ammo types than the Ethereal Crossbow, Elven Wand and Dragon Claw) as they are.

I had enough trouble keeping the solar rune pickups different enough. :\

IMO 2 pickups per type are fine, aside from the nonstandard sizes dropped by some monsters...
  • Golem &c., Wand Crystal: Worth 3 instead of 10, should be a shard.
  • Undead Warrior, Ethereal Arrows: Worth 5, normal.
  • Disciple, Claw Orb: Worth 10, normal.
  • Iron Lich, Claw Orb: Worth 10, normal.
  • Weredragon, Ethereal Arrows: Worth 10 instead of 5, should be a medium item.
  • Sabreclaw, Lesser Runes: Worth 20, normal.
  • Ophidian, Flame Orb: Worth 5 instead of 1, should be a medium item.
  • Maulotaur, Flame Orb: Worth 10 instead of 1, change the drop to an Inferno Orb instead.

True and true - so what should we decide now then?
