Since we're going to have dust bunnies, how about a vacuum themed weapon?

Not vortex bomb silly.

I meant literally a vacuum you hit them with. Like a dustbuster or something.

you mean

something that pulls monsters? at will? in a party of 3 it would be:
pull
brandish charge
pull again
2° brandish charge
repeat until death.

No, just a dustbuster you use to whack them.

More Detail...

Like Thunder-The-Bright said, A little bit more detail. Is it going to be a sword, gun or bomb? Why would this weapon be good? I mean they can't just add weapons that specializes on one monster...

Before you tell me that it's obviously going to be a sword because you said '' No, just a Dustbuster you use to whack them. '' and you can't whack other monsters with anything other than sword, at least state why it would be best for it to be a sword or whatever you decide to choose.

MK DETAILS

The damage I leave up to OOO, the damage type would be whatever they are weak to + medium damage bonus vs dust bunnies, the attack speed would be that of...hmm...the sealed sword let's say? The dust buster would swing in a wide arc allowing you to hit almost the entire "swarm" in one blow.

It should be a gun, since a

It should be a gun, since a suction-action is kinda ranged. It shouldn't cause a suction on the regular attack, only on the charge. To make it not like a tug-boat you should not be able to move while firing it. It could deal normal damage so that it's useful against all the swarm monsters, not just the dustbunnies. And to make it extra good at cleaning up swarm monsters, it could also deal fire.

Yeah, it could be fairly slow like the sealed sword, and could be two shot like the sealed sword as well, except each shot would last a short time like a spray so that it's not just a "BAM, BAM, reload" weapon.

Suction.

The suction for the charge could suck them into the dustbuster for a short time and deal damage then, and then shoot out the said enemy for a knockback effect then.

If you make it a bomb, you could make another line for it that deals shock: that's a really good swarm monster control status. That way it wouldn't shoot out the dustbunnies after its finished sucking them in, leaving them all clumped up ready for a beating with a sword!

I was going to make a silly nature documentary gag but you already exploited the joke enough.

"something that pulls monsters?"
"No, just a dustbuster you use to whack them."

"The suction for the charge could suck them into the dustbuster for a short time and deal damage then, and then shoot out the said enemy for a knockback effect then."

"I want to hit stuff with a vacuum cleaner."
"You mean like the suction bombs which have existed for two years?"
"No, just as a gag weapon against one of the new enemies coming out eventually."
"How about we give it suction anyway because Nick and friends hate bombers enough to literally take a bomb and make it a sword or gun?"
"Oh okay."

Way to kill my fun.
