I honestly think (and I'm sure at least some other people agree with me) that the Magnus line needs a revamp. How about the line changes to this;

2* Pow Gun (Pure normal damage with a low chance of causing Weak Stun)

Splits at 3* to either Pierce or Normal damage
3* Magnum (Pure normal damage with a low chance of Moderate Stun)
3* Magnus (Pure pierce damage with low chance to cause Weak Stun on user and a medium chance to cause Strong Stun to monsters)

4* Mega Magnum (Pure normal damage with a low chance of Moderate Stun)
4* Mega Magnus (Pure pierce damage with a low chance to cause Weak Stun on user and a medium chance to cause Strong Stun to monsters)

5* Iron Slug (Pure normal damage with a good chance of Moderate Stun)
5* Callahan (Pure pierce damage with a good chance of causing Moderate Stun on user and a high chance of causing Strong stun on monsters)

The Iron Slug line has been buffed to do higher amounts of normal damage, not unlike the Troika lines normal damage.

The reason as to why the Magnus and Callahan line have a chance to cause stun on the user is due to the fact it is mentioned on the description of the Callahan to "leave it's user in a daze". The Callahan line is more specialized and is a very good Beast and Fiend counter because of piercing damage and high chances of Stun.

The Iron slug line is for all round use and a safe chance to cause a moderate amount of stun to monsters, while the Callahan line can stun monsters very easily at the cost of stunning it's user.

If you have anything to add to this idea please tell me so I can make this better! This line really needs some light shone on it.

Giving a weapon a 0 star craft branch is stupid. All you are doing is making rage crafting easier.

I see, never gave that much

I see, never gave that much thought. I will remove the Punch gun and Pummel gun. I didn't really think it was necessary to call someone stupid? You could of just said; "I think it's a bad idea to give it 0* and 1* lines as it will induce rage crafting".

One last thing, did you even read the entire suggestion or did you stop at the 0* and 1*?

lol, you say a suggestion and your giving info about the weapons that are already in the game.

All your suggesting is that make the guns start at 2* and separate the 2 lines and rename the Iron Slugs after an Ice Cream.

A Magnum is a type of handgun, look it up. It comes in many variations, like the 44. Magnum or the 357. Magnum. The reason why I named it that is because the actual Magnus line seems to be based off them.

I am not giving information about a weapon already in the game, I changed the stun effects on both and buffed the Iron Slugs damage. Read again carefully and you will see what I mean. Also, I would appreciate it if you could suggest any ideas to make this one better.

I know what a Magnum is, I just wanted to use the Ice-cream version. :P But the slight tweak with the Stun and damage isn't really worth changing.

Because a 2* would really do this line a favor. And in regards to ragecrafting: When was the last time you saw someone with a Callahan? Never, that when. The lines are underpowered in comparison to other weapons, a pain to craft, a pain to get a UV on and have a really limited use. Devilites, ok, but the entire Beast family can be taken care of a 100 times more effective with a Needle.

But hey, doesn't matter, because when was the last time something has been changed about equipment? But, hope dies last.
