The weapon would be called [i]The Last Straw.[/i] It would probably work best as an auto rifle. The exotic perk would be called [i]Subtle Nudge[/i] and what it would do is increase the weapon's damage by 25% on targets with 25% or lower health.
The implementation of such a gun would reward those who would like to play more aggressively; something that is difficult to pull off in most boss encounters. For most boss fights the most consistent strategy is to keep your distance from the boss and fire heavy until ads show up then fire special until more ads show up and then it's usually firing primaries and whittling down the last quarter to a third of the bosses health while remaining as far away as possible. This weapon would allow players to play aggressively and do it in close proximity to the boss while making the trade off of increased danger worth the extra damage.
At the very least, such a weapon would encourage a more diverse range of viable play styles.

Interesting idea. I'd use this
