The Ammo Buoy was a utility ability available to the Valkyrie and Galaxy. It was unlocked through purchase with Campaign Standing in Sanctuary, after the completion of A Job Well Done during the Shattered Warpgate campaign.
When activated, the ability deployed an ammo buoy just behind the aircraft. The buoy remained active for up to 45 seconds, or until destroyed, resupplying weaponry aboard all allied ground and air vehicles within 75 meters, with a 60 second cooldown between uses.
The buoy stayed in the location it was deployed, unless it was at an altitude below 25 meters. If it was too low, it slowly floated upwards to until it reached an altitude of 25 meters. Buoys culd be damaged by all weaponry and were relatively fragile, being destroyed quickly under fire.
Unlike other player-sourced resupply equipment, such as when using the Vehicle Ammo Dispenser or deploying an Ammunition Package, resupplying allies with the buoy did not grant any Experience Points.
Although the buoy could no longer be acquired or equipped, loadouts containing this item created prior to the _Integration update retained access to the item until the August 17, 2022 Hotfix, where the item was finally removed proper.
