"Oh no, Ginger made another post on forums..."

Haha, you bet I did.

Alright guys, what sidearm are you using? I'm pretty sure everyone who was around in February is using the Azrael's Anguish sidearm for PvP (jugg doesn't count)

Alright guys, how about the aux? Not all people but I'm sure most people are using the Azrael's Anguish.

These weapons are really good and if your partner doesn't have the sidearm in 2v2, it's a shame because forcing is so strong and taking away a buff can be strong (with the aux)

So what can we do for people who don't have azraels?
Buff the cores maybe? (Like Energy shot, but I wouldn't say concussion shot because it's like a mini pyro fly and people dislike that robot)
Now I think with energy shot that maybe it should do some damage as well, besides maybe just taking energy, that way it at least does more than just sap energy. Or make it just take more energy so it is appealing. If you think of the primary cores, there is Frost Shards and Energy Storm that take energy, but frost is used more because it does damage.

So if we can make that core do more damage I think it is better.

Now there are other weapons that have some unique cores that people also never use unless they don't have azrael's anguish.

We have Icy Overkill for the Fury sidearms which can do a heck of a lot more damage with the special. I don't know but maybe if this is undeflectable it can be better? Or maybe make it do more than just ignore defense, like maybe a 10% damage increase and defense ignoring to make it more useful.

We also have Pacify for the Bio Blasters which may be fine as it is, but people won't leave Azrael's unless the core looks good. So maybe if we reduce the energy and if it doesn't do 100% damage, make it? I'm not sure because force just seems like a good option in general and I'm not sure if that would even make me switch. Testing against other people would obviously help though. But we need to make other guns appealing at least.

We can also talk about the move Spreadfire for the dage guns and the botanical guns.
This gun was designed to be useful in 2v2, but it isn't. The damage is too low for it to be of any use. I think we should get a damage buff, maybe like 90%? I feel like 95% is too strong, especially if we have dex builds, but 85% is way too weak. Or we can have it do 100% damage but cost some energy to use it (but it's passively and automatically uses it) and when out of energy it is back to 85% damage.

Let's get into aux cores

I think Bloodseeker Blast is fine where it is and is useful for support builds.

I think Hair Trigger is still good and may need some defense ignore or something but it's still good for support builds so maybe not.

I think Improbability Gate is a bit outdated and needs a little help in damage %

Salvage for the Bio Hunter Rifle is a good skill but I think it needs to cost less energy for people to think about using it.


I can add a primary core just because it's never used. I think it's called Energy Storm, it also does no damage, and no one really uses it, so maybe if it can do some damage it would be great, or at least buff up the % drain

Chairman's fury used to be useful, but since Str stopped being useful and the damage was nerfed to 85%, it disappeared, also the energy cost is just... oof.
