So, whats your preferred inventory loadout?

Decided to play through the game again recently, going through Forged in Fire on a fresh save for shits and giggles, and I found myself experimenting with different weapons and strategies.

Which got me thinking... Which weapons do you nerds use? How much ammo do you carry for each? What's your game plan for every orphan, and do you have specific uses for each weapon?

My first time running through the game was heavily reliant on the starting pistol and shotgun, and I thought at the time "There's no way you can carry enough ammo for the Dagger or Mace for them to be as effective".

But this time around, even on hard mode and on a fresh save, I find myself rather enjoying the Dagger and carrying much less ammunition for the shotgun. Pistol ammo is everywhere and you can craft tons of it if you don't get hit, so the Dagger using twice as much ammunition as the Sword pays off in that respect; not getting hit means more ammunition, which means enemies die faster, which means there's more you can spend on ammunition-

As for the shotgun, I find myself only carrying the 5 rounds in the chamber and using it to deal with the big guys and evolved variants selectively. You run into just enough shotgun ammo naturally that you can always keep it loaded, so that frees up an inventory slot for another weapon, more ammunition for something else, or just more items.

Anyway... what do ya'll do? :D
