i feel like there should be a bigger variety of weapons. im not necessarily saying new types (eg: sword, bomb, gun) but new weapons within those categories.

these weapons will have a "laser" ammo for guns. they would show how much longer you can continually shoot the gun (as long as you hold the attack button) until it needs to recharge.
2*:Beam Gun:
normal damage; lvl 1 same damage blaster does with level 1 DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec
3*:Emission Gun:
normal damage; lvl 1 same damage and super blaster with lvl 1 DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec
4*: Ray Gun (NOTHING to do with COD Black-Ops!!!)
normal damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 1 DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec
5*:Lazor Gun:
normal damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 10 DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec
5*:Slicing Laser:
piercing damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 10 DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec
5*:Quazar:
elemental damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 10 DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec
5*:Kaos Laser:
shadow damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 10 DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec
5*: Vulcan Laser:
elemental damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 10 and slightly less DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec; good chance to inflict MODERATE fire
5*:Arctical Laser:
elemental damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 10 and slightly less DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec; good chance to inflict MODERATE freeze
5*:Voltiac Laser:
elemental damage; lvl 1 same damage and master blaster with lvl 10 and slightly less DPS; continual shoot time 3 sec; recharge time from depleted 5 sec; good chance to inflict MODERATE shock

i will let OOO decide the materials for upgrade to next lvl weapon

PS: i have not been able to play because i can't download the update of javascript for a long time. so if anyone is in the guild ULTIMA or know Goodlink or Hcastanheiro, please tell them that i am sorry that i have not been able to play and the reason why. thanks! and post more suggestions!

...I actually like the idea, the recharge time is too long though. 5 second recharge for a 3 second shot? Nobody would use it on its own and would encourage Gun Flipping; an exploit used to fire Alchemers continuously without reloading.

Rainjinmaru

wow reply already

i know what ur saying but... to shoot all 3 bullets from a blaster takes like 1 sec. the laser guns will shoot 3x that but i thought it would be kinda OP if i made it, say, and 3 sec recharge. maybe 4 sec recharge? we'll see what other ppl have to say (:). btw, do u know goodlink or hcastanheiro, or danielflame or im-death? if u do could you please tell them why i can't play?

Little-Juances

If you have to hold the button to keep shooting, how do you even make a charge attack?

I don't but I can pass a message on. Mail system ftw.

Edit: Mailed all four. Danielflame responded to me via private. He now knows about your situation and the other three will if they haven't already.

Edit edit: Other 3 have acknowledged your plight and hope you can get it sorted soon.

Pretend I wrote something clever here

"A handgun that is as nonsensical as it is deadly."
Suggested description for Arctic Laser.

Alternatively:
"Some things shouldn't be thought about too much."

Please don't make a damage

Please don't make a damage type variation of each. The reason why is to keep the weapon line from just being another brandish/alchemer issue of too much range, too little variation.
I suggest keeping it to 2 damage types per weapon type (including normal).

so you can pretty much be

so you can pretty much be like those turrets that shoot lasers at enemys?

Why not all normal?

+1 only if

You make it that the weapons split into elements from the beggining and some of them are not available in HoH like the pulsar.

alt knight

ok im back with a knight NOT from newgrounds (cuz newgrounds isn't supposed to have access to forums). i AM Rainjinmaru
@battlegrinder: that is a very nice description!
@waffleconecake: ummm, define "too much range, too little variation"
@sirius:what is HoH? and if i made it split from the beginning i wouldn't know what to name all of em. i hard a hard time thinking of all the names
beam gun description: A prototype laser gun meant only for testing but has been found useful in the clockworks.
emission gun: An upgraded laser gun that has a higher concentration of energy and is less likely to backfire and blow up in the knight's face as well as monsters.
ray gun: A gun powerful enough to melt through a foot of solid in a matter of moments. A rash knight almost destroyed Lt. Feron's bunk while playing with it.
lazor gun: One of the most powerful of all laser guns. Be careful not to look in the laser, else you will end up blind and will need a knight to assist you.
Quazar: Armed with the power of gamma ray bursts, this is arguably the most powerful weapon ever created. creating requires years and has a high chance of failing and exploding

not really involving it but...

"ray gun: A gun powerful enough to melt through a foot of solid in a matter of moments. A rash knight almost destroyed Lt. Feron's bunk while playing with it."

Poor Feron, first his bed was riddled with needles, and now it's been almost destroyed by a laser gun

it would be funny if one of the discriptions was "WARNING: do not fire while cats are nearby"

oh, and HoH is Hall of Heros by the way

@pipipipipi

ooops. my bad on the decription. i meant "...powerful enough to melt through a foot of solid steel in a matter of seconds..."
made a mistake on this too. here is what i meant
Quazar: Armed with the power of gamma ray bursts, this is arguably the most powerful weapon ever created. Creating it requires years and has a high chance of failing and exploding
edited lazor gun description:
lazor gun: One of the most powerful of all laser guns. Be careful not to look in the laser, else you will end up blind and as miserable as those who fall victim to its pure energy.
slicing laser: The beam of this gun is so concentrated that playing with it could be your demise.
Kaos laser: Harnessing the power of small black holes, this gun's beam is so strong it can draw in light and darken the world.

alternate description

Kaos laser: Harnessing the power of small black holes, this gun's beam is so strong it can draw in light and darken the world.
OR what @Pipipipipi suggested:
"WARNING: do not fire while Kats are nearby"
(should be kats in this game, not cats lol)
