there should be a new weapon in the game of spiral knights. the arrow. It will be like a gun and bomb combined. you will have to charge up the arrow to shoot and you will have clip. After done shooting all your ammo you will have to reload. arrows will explode on impact or skewer monsters. Arrows will do equal to twice the dmg of guns

Without the 'clip' it's like
Without the 'clip' it's like a sun shard bomb, but only on one direction.

yeah but with the exploding
yeah but with the exploding or skewering idea and the twice as much dmg as guns, you might need clip to not over power things.

A bit Op and some idea flaws but...
I think the closest you could is a one shot, Piercing damage, skewering, Arablast/Balista... no explosions, that just makes it seem like a pulsar...

"there should be a new weapon in the game of spiral knights. the arrow. It will be like a gun and bomb combined. you will have to charge up the arrow to shoot and you will have clip."
Howabout you don't have to full charge it? Like, half charge, half range and damage. So you can use it for speed or strength. Double damage sounds a bitt off though. Higher damage, but not nessecarialy double. Making it go through enemies to get multiple hits would be cool.
+1 for crossbow. A bow-and arrow isn't technicaly a handgun, but a crossbow has a handle with a trigger, so it would animate easy.

I'll say it again, a weapon
I'll say it again, a weapon that has to be charged to release bullets is called a Crystal bomb. It already charges insta-fast (I'd say the fastest in the game) and has 8 directions shooting without damage range penalties. Any gun idea that has to charge to shoot only 1 controled bullet should have to be severaly buffed to not be outclassed by sun shards.
Still, if you add too much damage, it'd be OP.

Yes, yes. I'm just pointing
Yes, yes. I'm just pointing out that the damage might be something better left to OOO, prevailing they do read and impliment this.

I'll only support adding
I'll only support adding arrows to SK if the arrows stay sticking out of the target upon impact.
I want to turn devilites into tiny pincushions.

Indeed. Charge keeps
Indeed. Charge keeps traveling though, untill it goes through the maximum ammount of people.
I like your idea. I've been thinking instead of twice as much damage, maybe a little less than that but one can attack normally to do a single piercing melee attack with the arrow. Personally, I don't think your clip idea is really necessary.
