How much sulfur ammo crafting needs

Sulfur becomes gunpowder, and gunpowder becomes every ammunition type, so consumption is driven by your weapon tier and how often you fight rather than by any single recipe.

Gunpowder is the bottleneck

Every firearm build routes through gunpowder. Producing it continuously with assigned Pals is more effective than crafting in bursts.

Scale with weapon tier

Higher-tier ammunition costs more per shot. Upgrading your rifle without upgrading your sulfur supply is how players end up with a weapon they cannot feed.

Estimating a session

Track how much ammo one tower boss or raid consumes, then stock two or three times that before the next attempt. Running dry mid-fight loses the gear too.

Automate it

A production line with assigned crafters turning sulfur into gunpowder and gunpowder into ammo removes the manual crafting loop entirely.

Alternatives to shooting

Melee, Pal skills and status effects reduce ammo pressure on ordinary content. Save the expensive rounds for bosses and raids.
