Three dimensional Coulomb branches have a prominent role in the study of moduli spaces of supersymmetric gauge theories with 8 supercharges in 3, 4, 5, and 6 dimensions. Inspired by simply laced 3d N\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$ \mathcal{N} $$\end{document} = 4 supersymmetric quiver gauge theories, we consider Coulomb branches constructed from non-simply laced quivers with edge multiplicity k and no flavor nodes. In a computation of the Coulomb branch as the space of dressed monopole operators, a center-of-mass U(1) symmetry needs to be ungauged. Typically, for a simply laced theory, all choices of the ungauged U(1) (i.e. all choices of ungauging schemes ) are equivalent and the Coulomb branch is unique. In this note, we study various ungauging schemes and their effect on the resulting Coulomb branch variety. It is shown that, for a non-simply laced quiver, inequivalent ungauging schemes exist which correspond to inequivalent Coulomb branch varieties. Ungauging on any of the long nodes of a non-simply laced quiver yields the same Coulomb branch C\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$ \mathcal{C} $$\end{document}. For choices of ungauging the U(1) on a short node of rank higher than 1, the GNO dual magnetic lattice deforms anisotropically such that it no longer corresponds to a Lie group, and therefore, the monopole formula yields a non-valid Coulomb branch. However, if the ungauging is performed on a short node of rank 1, the one-dimensional magnetic lattice is rescaled along its single direction i.e. isotropically and the corresponding Coulomb branch is an orbifold of the form C\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$ \mathcal{C} $$\end{document}/ℤk . Ungauging schemes of 3d Coulomb branches provide a particularly interesting and intuitive description of a subset of actions on the nilpotent orbits studied by Kostant and Brylinski [1]. The ungauging scheme analysis is carried out for minimally unbalanced Cn, affine F4, affine G2, and twisted affine D43\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$ {D}_4^{(3)} $$\end{document} quivers, respectively. The analysis is complemented with computations of the Highest Weight Generating functions.
