The new sidearm designs are generally similar and somewhat dull, both in visual and function.
Here's a barrel heavy design idea: three-barrel pistol. It's short range (10m optimal, 20m effective), high damage per shot but low rate-of-fire, and comes in two fire modes: burst simultaneous triple-barrel shots (for 3x damage but penalty with 2 seconds overheat and a huge kick) and single-barrel shot; the burst triple-barrel shot mode is available only if the pistol is at full clip. Visually: one short barrel on top two other identical barrels in a pyramid layout. |

Oh you mean you want to change the Ion pistol? |

I thought of it but no, it's just a new design.
Idea cont...
It is similar to the breach scrambler pistol (bScP) in function. The burst triple-shot makes damage similar to bScP's head-shot but it's limited to when the pistol is at full clip and has overheat. It's shorter range then the ScP.
It could be another Minmatar sidearm design. |

I think that the niche you're going for is supposed to be occupied by the ion pistol and adding a new gun there just to get the flavour of minmatar is not a good idea imo.
Something that *is* lacking though is a AV sidearm. I could see a mini swarm launcher with a short range that could be minmatar flavoured |

Now that you mentioned the ion pistol, yeah they do sounds similar. If their function overlaps, the barrel heavy triple-barrel pistol visual suggestion is still cool. Maybe the visual can be incorporated into the flaylock. |

Now that I could get behind. A threebarreled flaylock capable of emptying its three barrels at once - at the price of reduced range, reduced blast radius and reduced damage per missile (ending up at, what, 600 dmg if all three dumbfire missiles hit)
Making the weapon function like a sidearm plasma cannon with a faster reload rate. Me like. |
