Honestly i dont know if this is going to help but why are Spike and Javelin named backwards. And what i mean by that is Spike (something you put on a shield for close range fighting) is the LONG RANGE ammo... and Javelin (something you throw to get range) is the CLOSE RANGE ammo. Honestly its such a mental mindfuck that i mix them up every time. Is there any way we can get the damn ammo names reversed?

CCP likes doing things backwards.

Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot.

I think I remember hearing somewhere that somebody made a mistake in naming them, and that originally they were meant to be named the other way around.

Could be wrong though. Might just be a rumor.

Considering the topic, a while back I had found a third T2 Hybrid Ammo type that was never used. Was like, Annihilation/Oblivion or something terrifying like that. Was like Void ammo but without all the negative tracking drawbacks and stuff.

Obviously this will never go in game but, it's fun to imagine.
