Hi Bungie Forums,
I wanted to start a conversation about everyone's favorite Legendary Trait: Subsistence (i'm only kidding, obviously). This trait was introduced in Joker's Wild with the Reckoning/Gambit Prime weapons and serves as a nice way to feed ammo into the magazine from the reserves.
However, I believe that this trait creates a difficult experience for the player because of its other effects. This trait, cuts reserves by almost 2/3; no other perk does anything similar to this and it creates a situation where a player will run out of ammo quickly ESPECIALLY on hand cannons.
This trait also creates a anti-synergy because perks like Kill Clip and Multikill Clip require a reload which this trait does not proc. Even though the trait description specifically mentions the word "reload"
To address QoL of this trait, I believe that reserves with this perk should be increased AND should proc reload perks like Kill Clip. This will create another trait that is widely sought after like Feeding Frenzy, Outlaw, etc.
Thoughts?
Agree with this part:

Do not agree with this part:

That would mean you could keep Kill Clip going forever as long as you get kills and that would be extremely broken. That is the reason why Kill Clip does not proc with Rally Barricade/Lunafaction Boots.
