I would like to see a new Heavy Weapon type added to Destiny similar to the Spartan Laser in Halo. This would be perfect as an exotic:
Exotic Name: [b]A Taste of the Traveler[/b]
Weapon Type: [b]Laser[/b]
Weapon Class: [b]Heavy[/b]
Charge Time: [b]4 seconds[/b]
Ammo Capacity: [b]PvE - 3 shots (4 with armor upgrades), PvP - 2 shots with one Heavy ammo pickup.[/b]
Ammo clip size: [b]1 (reload after each shot)[/b]
Damage - [b]PvE - about 6 shots of a high impact Sniper Rifle, PvP - one shot kill similar to a Rocket Launcher.[/b]
Damage Type: [b]Solar (legendaries could be made in other types)[/b]
Perks: [b]Outlaw and Firefly.[/b]
Similar to Sidearms you could just make one legendary and one exotic to start with. The legendary one could have less damage and a longer charge time.
It would shoot a single quick burst so you couldn't just zigzag all over the screen and kill everything. This would be a great risk vs. reward weapon because you would have to track your target while you charge up the shot.
It might not be too practical in PvP, but would be great for Raiding - maybe a good substitute for Gjallarhorn?

1 ReplyPlasma Rifle as a primary would be nice also. As a space-ish themed game I was surprised there wasn't lasers besides the Fusions.

1 ReplyIf I want to -blam!- around with lasers, I'll play Borderlands the Pre-Sequel. It has a much better story than Destiny and it's actually fun to play with friends.

1 ReplyWhy bother? All the cry babies would scream for a nerf the first time they were killed by it, then your laser would be as useless as Super Good Advice because that is the nature of the beast. The Bungie Nerf Beast. Now that would be a weapon they could get behind. Shoot someone with the Nerf Beast and it instantly nerfs your opponent's weapon.

5 RepliesMake it similar to queen breakers bow but with a much bigger 'laser'. 4 second charge time is too long, the we bow charge time is sufficient to make you have to lead your targets. Make it an ultra long range heavy weapon option. Same number of shots as a rocket launcher but with much better range (that way it's not OP).
