Lately I have noticed that a lot of exotics are bounty driven (Chaperone, First curse, Immobius, Still piercer, etc) and some of them aren't worth it to do the quest/bounty to get it because it is just too underpowered, (I am not saying they need to be buffed, I'm just saying that something that "weak" shouldn't be a quest/bounty reward. This being said I have an idea for a new non-bounty driven exotic weapon. The exotic I thought of is a sniper shotgun "hand cannon". This may sound a bit of an attempt to make an overpowered exotic that might slip past bungie but I have balanced everything I can think of to make this weapon fair so just read the whole post before rejecting or approving it. The starting model will be like a very short sawed-off shotgun with two shots in its barrel but it has 2/3rd's of the projectiles of a regular shot from a shotgun. In shotgun mode the reload takes 5-6 seconds and the range would be adding half of the average range of a shotgun to the base range of the Blunder Buster. The special exotic perk is to hold the reload button to switch from shotgun mode to sniper mode. (If you hold the reload button you take the left barrel and pull it up to be a scope) It only has one bullet and half the range of an average sniper rifle so that it works as a medium range sniper (so you can't snipe across the the map with a hand cannon). If you don't know how effective it would be at long range put it this way, you can't one-shot-head-shot from one side to the other on the frontier map but you can get a one-shot-head-shot at shorter range. The transition between normal mode and the sniper mode is moving the barrel back and forth so, for crucible purposes, it takes 2-3 seconds for that transition. But I would like help from the community to help decide two sub-special upgrades for the Blunder Buster, and who makes the gun (Suros, Tex Mechanica, Vanguard, etc. If I forgot any of the "manufactures" in the poll let me know and vote in the comments). Who makes the Blunder Buster will be a poll and write the sub-special upgrade ideas in the comments. The two sub-special upgrades have to have one upgrade for the shotgun mode and one for the sniper mode. I got this idea from the pistol that pirates used back then and thought it would be a cool gun to add to the Destiny exotic collection. If you've made it this far thank you for reading the post through.
