-A gravity gun that fires charged shots, and each shot will be a energy sphere that will pull in anyone that it hits directly (which traps them until the sphere disappears in 10 seconds), and slows the the movement of anyone moving away from it by pulling on them. It would be like the forge gun, but have the effect of trapping or slowing down enemy players. This weapon would be nonlethal.

Caldari tech
-Antipersonnel stasis webifier: Reduces the maximum speed of an enemy merc by employing micro energy streams which effectively entangle the target temporarily, thereby slowing it down. Would be actvated by aiming one's hand towards an enemy.

Gallente tech
-A group of spherical flying drones that orbit the player and generate a slight shield boost. When the player designates a target by aiming a non-lethal laser at an enemy, the drones move towards and fly around the enemy to do some light continuous shield damage, and distract.

Great ideas! Although I'm not sure that last one belongs here, seeing as how it causes damage. Still, cool idea!

The weapons in this game really are boring, mostly just standard FPS things (assault rifle, SMG, sniper rifle, grenade launcher, ec). Weird, unconventional, and non-lethal weapons would really spice things up and keep things from getting boring.

I suppose the shield damage isn't necessary since it can still perform as a good distraction. Maybe they can drain enemy stamina instead, or fire glaring lights into the eyes/cameras of the enemy.
