this is my idea for new types of guns

So pierce gun is a gun that can hit multiple monster on a straight line . but it cannot pierce ALL monsters in one hit . just 2 or three foes on a straight line (Maybe)
But if the bullet have been hit the first enemy the dammage will be halved then if the bullet hit the 2nd monster the bullet dammage will halved(Again?)
The bullet can't pierce through walls & unbreakable things
If you charge pierce gun it will pierce more monsters (3~5) with a bit of more dammage

And snipe gun is a gun that have more range than other gun ,
When Snipe gun is aiming a target . the camera will zoom out until the camera see the target and the player
snipe gun must be charged before used to attack . it will only charge if it have been targeted a monster

That is my idea for now ... i hope you like it

How different is piercing

How different is piercing compared to Argent Peacemaker and Sentenza's charge attack? If there is going to be a gun that pierces on normal attack, how will it be balanced in comparison to those two?

The pierce gun will have lower dammage than the other guns .
Argent Peacemaker & senteza's charge attack do FULL dammage to all monster in radius , but pierce gun will only Do 50% and 25% full dammage to 1st and 2nd enemy

The snipe gun may usefull to do a "Safe Play" like shooting vanaduke on the corner of vanaduke's Room
or snipin' other players near the revive spot if you play colloseum
and if you not charge your snipe gun first . the bullet will not go accurately to your target
snipe gun will reload every single bullet shooted (Just like sniper in real life)

I'm not fond of the first idea

but the Sniper rifle styled gun isn't a terrible idea. A gun that pierces enemies, but does lower damage wouldn't find it's niche, I'm afraid.

Now, as for the sniper mechanic, that's not a bad idea. If it's one shot then reload, the damage should be fairly high per shot, and naturally, you can't move while shooting (think autogun charge). I don't know that an accuracy penalty is necessary if you aren't using the charge, but a damage penalty would work.

Charge attack should have the "zoom in view" and a longer field of view than standard, so that as you say, you could shoot Vanaduke safely, or something along those lines. My question to you is type damage. Is this elemental, shadow, pierce or (IMO best option) normal damage?

About the dammage type

usually the pierce or snipe gun will have piercing or normal dammage type . just like a sniper in real life , but there may be 1 or 2 snipe/pierce gun line that have shadow or elemental type dammage .

And the zoom out view will happens when charging the snipe gun .

EDIT: "the camera will not focus at the main character but the main character & the aimed area like :(Updated soon)" meants Zoom out view when charging snipe gun .thanks Perronius
