3 New Weapon type ideas!

I for one would like to see some diversity in the weapon types in Destiny. Here's some ideas I have! [u]Primary Weapon:[/u] Compound Bows, held in the left hand, which frees up your right hand for grenades/melee. They would only have 1 arrow before you would have to reload, so each arrow should do a lot of damage (Headshot should be 1 shot kill in crucible, body shot would only take down shields) Example of a legendary Bow's perks: [b]Quickdraw[/b] (precision kills increase reload speed for a short time) and [b]Armor Piercing Arrows[/b] (bows may also include choice of scope) [u]Special Weapon:[/u] Submachine Guns would offer a quick option for a last resort when your health is low and enemies are near. A fast rate of fire and high DPS would be a good alternative for a Shotgun at close quarters. Weapon Subclasses could trade off range/stability for rate of fire/damage. Example of a legendary SMG's perks: [b]Single Point Sling[/b] (switch weapons faster, great for high intensity situations in the Crucible) and [b]Hip Fire[/b] (increased hip fire accuracy) [u]Heavy Weapon:[/u] Grenade Launchers would offer some diversity to the Heavy Weapon slot. GL's would be a lot like rocket launchers, with one or two (perhaps 3) grenades in a mag. Here's my idea for an Exotic GL: [b]The Thumper[/b] has the option to choose whether your grenades will explode on contact while ADS or to bounce once off of the ground or a wall while hip firing, and also has a unique perk that causes a flash bang effect with each grenade (a one-grenade magazine would keep this weapon from being OP in crucible) What are your thoughts? If you would like to see some of these weapon types, or if you have some ideas of your own, let me know!

  • Heavy weapon: Rail Gun -The power of a rocket launcher (obvs not a much) -With the rate of fire of a machine gun -looks like a machine gun/reloads like one -low ammo capacity Perfect for taking down individual enemies without blowing yourself up or missing with the rocket launcher :') haha
