From what I've experienced with my time playing around with this artifact, it seems like it burns through the heavy ammo too quickly. And while you might be able to deflect a super and kill somebody in PvP, the amount of damage you cause from deflecting something like an ogre blast does very little damage to the ogre itself. Granted it can take out weaker ads like the thrall, but you waste too much ammo in the process.
Overall I feel that the Memory of Radegast needs a buff, especially in the PvE department.
What do you guys think? Please, share your thoughts and suggestions. : )

It needs to have its bug fixed. The extra ammo is only given when you have the sword actively equipped. I have 68 base ammo and 88 with radegast. If I pop a synth without my sword out I only get 68, but if I have my sword out I get 88. If I run over a heavy drop with 68 ammo without my sword out, it wastes the heavy and gives me 0 ammo. Dying with 88 ammo will respawn you with 68 ammo.

This actually a really interesting question. I put yes for PvE but I just need to really think it over

Deflect everything

Agree. Idk what the point of using it is if you can just equip a better artifact and a machine gun or rocket and still have way way more damage output. Especially when it just makes your heavy ammo disappear like you said
-
I can understand reflecting a super costing a bunch, but everywhere else it eats way to much energy to be worth it.
-
It's supposed to block one super, not 6 at once and still have ammo left over for an attack
-
I think all the artifacts were meant to be more gimmicks than actually useful, though the third eye one and Jolders artifact are actually pretty useful
-
I mean Idk what other people think of it compared to me but finally having something to bring more sword ammo is a win for me
-
The amount of energy for clearing ADS with this artifact should be about the same as the amount of energy needed to kill ADS with regular sword attacks.

At least in PVE,. The main thing is that I had full 75+ ammo go down to 0 in under two seconds and still only reflect some energy, and the rest damages you.
