The Burning Boomstick.

2* - The Spiral Shotty.

Has one shot.
Fires a tight spread of 3 antigua-like projectiles up to 5 tiles away. Projectiles spread across to two tiles in the end.
Damage: Elemental.
It should look like a simple shotty, only spiral knights style. (Maybe with one of those alchemer energy cell things in place of the barrel.)

3* - The Spiral Disembowler

Has two shots.
Fires a tight spread of 3 antigua-like projectiles up to 5 tiles away. Projectiles spread across two tiles in the end.
Damage: Elemental.
It should look like a slightly better version of the Spiral Shotty, maybe with two energy cells.

4* - The Heavy Disembowler.

Has two shots.
Fires a tight spread of 4 antigua-like projectiles up to 6 tiles away. Projectiles spread across two tiles in the end.
Damage: Elemental, Good chance of weak fire.
It should like a Heavy Duty Disembowler, maybe with a small gas tank.

5* - The Burning Boomstick

Has three shots.
Fires a spread of 6 antigua-like projectiles up to 6 tiles away. Projectiles spread across three tiles in the end.
Damage: Elemental, Strong chance of weak fire.
It should be a seriously badass shotgun. I might even be able to upload a render of a model later.

Is it?

Shotgun?

This... actually sounds fun. It's like a Blitz Needle that fires all its needles at once, but less of them.

This is an exact description of Blitz Needle.

Only it fires all of the shots at the same time.

Blitz shots aren't spread out largely timewise compared to, say, AP.

So it's more powerful than Blitz, then? I see it also has a three-burst clip.

We really don't need a weapon more powerful than Blitz.

someone here said that it

someone here said that it sounds fun but when I posted my thread, everyone hated it. Sure, I the range was too short and would defeat the purpose of swords, but even when I suggested increasing the range far enough to be used as a gun, people still hated it. How is this possible? And besides, the charge attack that I described is nothing like a shotgun attack at all. Finally, +1 to this idea. I also agree with it sounding fun to use.

The problem with shotgun suggestions is 80% of the people who suggest it, suggest it in an overpowered and unbalanced way. This leads the general community to think that shotgun suggestions in general are a bad idea.

I think Zeddy is trying to get at that this thread is one of those threads that suggest it without balance in mind.

The pellets would have to do far less damage than the blitz. I guess I should have specified that...

That's nice. But this is my suggestion.
