I am a huge fan o the freeze status. I would like to see an autogun that can stun enemies. The 3* to 5* looks like the pepperbox series with stun like colour for the gun. It deals the same amount of damage except instead of burning, it stuns. it has a slight chance of causing minor, moderate or strong stun (depending on which one will be more suitable for the gun, although minor would be the best option). I know that there will be lots of criticism, but I could care less. I love the stun status and if they did create it, I would craft it and use it.
stun status autogun
freezed enemy gets hit -> enemy gets unfrozen
hit enemy 15 times -> it won't freeze anything.
in that case I'm not going to bother saying why this is ridiculous.

@Everyone who has posted so far
Are you all so retarted you can't read past the first sentence?
@OP
Anyway, I +1 this. I love it as well!
"Are you all so retarted you can't read past the first sentence?"
I'd rather you of all people didn't pull a derp and realize that some of us are smart enough to read.
I'd have a screenie if I guessed the OP was going to be this scumbag. He changed all of the other 'Freeze' related words to 'stun'.
Yes hex, i read. -1
No one gives an argument? Well here goes...
An autogun line is supposed to be that powerful, but the reloading and inability to move give away it's biggest weakness. Stunning a monster (unless you miss) will tip off the balance of the weapon. Your Stun blitz will be the next blitz. 15 hits and a slight chance to every bullet is something worth reconsidering.
Thank you for retarting me, I needed the snacks.
Apparently I am explaining.
The Blitz has a drawback to its massive damage in that it restricts the movement of the firer. Whilst you're drowning things in boolit, you are vulnerable from other directions, including your enemy if it happened to dodge. You are also liable to miss since your enemy's mobility is not restricted (unless they're flinched from the damage in time).
By adding stun, you have removed a pretty important weakness to the Blitz. There's a good reason why Stun is an equally popular status for Vanaduke runs, and this is it; Freeze can be broken by damage, but Stun cannot. Hence, the gun becomes overpowered since the enemy is shut down fairly effectively.
Is this a clear enough explanation as to why this is not a good idea?

The OP's edit time is earlier than all your posts, so I don't understand why you're thinking he's changed it.
@Aureate
Is this a clear enough explanation as to why this is not a good idea?
Yes, yes it is. However, I'm gonna have to disagree with you. The biggest threat to standing still while using an autogun isn't coming from the enemy you're firing at, it's coming from all the enemies you're not firing at, seeing as they're not the ones getting interrupted and pwnd by 15 overpowered boolits from hell.
Also, people will continue to use the blitz because it's easier to kill trojans straight up with Blitz's high pierce damage than it is to use a normal damage autogun and stun the trojan but leave it still alive.
Anyone notice how, when you fire Blitz Needle, the hit effect has a giant star? That and the whole thing having a yellow theme to it makes it look like it should be stunning.
I propose that Blitz' power be nerfed down to the strength of Plague Needle, adding stun to it.
That actually wouldn't be a bad idea Zeddy. And the pepperbox could use a better range too.
And the pepperbox could use a better range too
Why? Isn't it the same as blitz?
Unlike Blitz, pepperbox gains no range at all when it uses its charge attack; compared to eachother, pepperbox has about half the range. The bullets are also rather slow compared to Blitz' instant hitscans. I think it's to prevent the the knockback from being too useful.

"stun status autogun"
I know it said freeze yesterday but this thread is too stupid to not laugh at the incompetence of idiots.
I don't get it.
For all we could've known, before your post, he/she changed it. That one thing basically just hints it.
I saw the thread last night but was too sleep deprived to comment.
Without sleep I start seeing things. Like imploding rabbits. The pills they give me are supposed to help but nothing changes.
"The OP's edit time is earlier than all your posts, so I don't understand why you're thinking he's changed it."
I don't think he changed it. I know he changed it. OPs' timestamps aren't affected by edits. Check out Happyapathy's ETD thread; he's edited that thing so many times over the course of it's creation, yet the OP's timestamp remains behind the first post.
The topic was Freeze related. I entered the thread wondering why this guy would suddenly want a Freeze autogun, read through the whole OP, got irked at the OPs "I love the Freeze status idc what ya'll think or say" and posted.
If I didn't read even a section of a post, whoever it is, I leave a note in some form stating I didn't read the post. This one I read three times to make sure I was seeing what I was seeing before posting.
After you posted, I read it once before realizing what happened.
Stun could make the weapon more useful in Lockdown compared to the Pepperbox, but there are plenty of other weps you can use to stun, and then pepperbox.
"I am a huge fan o the freeze status."
" I would like to see an autogun that can stun enemies."
Nice edit fail, bro. ¬.¬;
And if I shoot a monster from thye jelly familly I got tons of grey effects o/
The giant star is here cause you're shooting something(Vanaduke?) and he's weak against Peircing, that all.
