[dark osprey]

[kindred summit]

What.

This feels like false advertising in the pros & Cons.

[kindred summit]

what do you mean

[proven lichen]

Well to summarise the total in Blu Text - Red Text:

• On Hit: Ignites enemies for 6 seconds.
• +66% Afterburn Damage
• +60% Reload Speed
• +50% Reload Speed
• Projectile Bounces off surfaces
• -100% Damage Penalty
• -75% Clip size
• 2.5s Fuse time.
• No Knockback

So, we get a single rocket with Zero Damage & no Knockback to Rocket jumping… for 10 damage a second…

So like

Instead of setting them on fire

What if you swapped to stock

and just killed them

[kindred summit]

i dont get it

[dark osprey]

Why would you use this over stock

In any situation

You can't rocket jump with it and you're less lethal with it

[kindred summit]

okay you're right, but the idea is at least something

the name and the fact you use a firework

[dark osprey]

Neither are really weapon concepts though, they're just cosmetic

You could make stock look like its a firework and a name

What core mechanic do you want this weapon to have that makes it unique from other weapons in the game

[kindred summit]

well i figured that maybe the bouncing mechanic could be interesting

similar to the cyclops with the delayed detonation

and of course the firework is just a bonus

[fair thorn]

He meant that using the - to showcase all stats is pretty stupid because it makes it look like all stats are negative

[prisma ginkgo]

The idea is a bit stupid imo.
You could just use stock or the RPG to just… yk…

Kill the dude you wanna kill?

[proven lichen]

What don’t you get? This is YOUR weapon on paper.

[odd pebble]

Fireworks do have their outer casing composed of paper

[proven lichen]

And yet, no paper cut dmg.
