Where's all the ammo at?
I'm playing a sneak-assault build. I have a selection of weapons all with different ammo types, but I feel like I'm often running out of ammo.
Am I doing something wrong? Where is all the ammo?
Best Answer
I've found ammo in three different ways:
Containers: There's a perk to increase how much you find in containers. Not much to say other than that.
Defeated Enemies: Hopefully you're aware you can loot your enemies. The vast majority of the fusion cells I've gotten my hands on were from enemies.
Shops: Shops actually have quite a bit of ammo, even ones that aren't obviously weapon stores. I've bought a lot of ammo from Trudy at the diner between Sanctuary and Concord.
And that's pretty much it. No crafting of ammo or anything like that. It's a nuclear apocalypse, ammo is scarce. Try using high-damage guns to maximize each round.
Update: If you have the Contraptions Workshop DLC, you can now manufacture ammo.

Answer 2
Make sure you are looting all the people you kill and checking all the containers and make sure you are finding all the containers you might be going past containers and not even realizing it, you should have more then enough ammo if you do that. You might want to try putting a couple points into the Scrounger Perk that will help a decent amount. If all else fails you can buy ammo from various traders.
