Trigger Happy/Sad

[Slax]

Trait’s pretty unbalanced right now. 3 points for a minimal chance to waste some ammo.
Wouldn’t a trigger happy character get pissed if he were to limit himself to a semi-auto weapon? Frustration! Anger! Saaaadness.

Full-auto would naturally vent all that pent up frustration.

I don’t think it’s meant to be “GODDAMN I WISH I COULD FIRE THIS ON FULL AUTO” but more the tendency to rock & roll.

That said the “Trigger Sad” gives me an idea, more along the lines of “Triggery Shy” and that would give the character a small chance of not firing the gun. Though this could get problematic. (EG: You attempt to fire the weapon but you’re too scared)

IMO, this is an excellent observation and proposed solution.

Interesting idea… I was thinking increased recoil and reduced accuracy from overcompensating for expected recoil
