Anybody have some tips? I'm finding myself rushing to try and find the berserk pack on the level ASAP because I basically have to fist most pinkies and imps in order to have enough ammo for the bigger bastards, especially early on, when ammo is particularly valuable because I haven't found the berserk pack yet. When they roll out a baron, things get really hairy.

Are there any particular tricks to ammo conversvation beyond fisting enemies that are easy to fist and trying to incite infighting when possible?
