So, this is my concept for a new SS weapon. I wanted to make a creative weapon idea, not another "HAY WHRES OUR M16S AND SNOIPOR RIFLES" topic.
This would resemble a large modified rivet gun minus the cord and a canister of rivets underneath. The nossle would be sawed off and altered, and a there would be a handle on top of it and on the back. Or, just a more modernized version of the Rosie's rivet gun for any bioshock fans out there. =P
This weapon would fire a single rivet, straight down the invisible crosshairs that would deal about as much as a compressed pump shotgun blast (would be directly in sync with pump shotgun damage). Now, to make sure this doesn't become a new sharpshooter weapon, this cannon would have a weight of 10. It would also have only a 1.0X headshot multiplyer. I'd imagine the iron sights being similar to the AK47s, but of course would be different somehow.
Now, you may be thinking what this is doing for the SS, a class that specializes in shotgunning, but many people forget another important part of playing support: Welding.
Using the alt fire of this weapon fires a rivet that deals no damage and on contact with a weldable door seals it 20%. You can only do this while playing as SS while wielding one, kind of like how you can only have fire ammo for mac10 when firebug. This percentage is just an example, as it would increase as your level progresses.
Now, just to clear things up:
Not SS: clips size 4/36, cannot weld shot, deals as much damage as spread-free shotgun blast. 3000 Pounds.
As SS: Clip size and clips carried grows by 1 for each level, weld shot welds 10% as level 0, grow 10% with each level up (eventually putting you at 70% weld per hit.), damage dealt is exactly the same as shotgun damage. 3000 pounds as level 0, going down 250 pounds for each level, making it 1500 pounds at level 6.
Of course, most numbers here can be tweaked.
Any opinions on this crazy idea of mine?
