Unique Exploit Effect per Weapon Type

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
In another topic, the discussion Went from, "Give the TOS Disruptor a cool unique exploit effect like the TOS Phaser" to "All weapons need unique exploit effects" And this now tops the list of things I want. I think it would give this game flavor and add something special to the sometime dull ground combat.

Phasers- stay the same

Disruptors-Mostly the same, but more like ST III

Plasma-A more Fiery incineration or possibly melting

Polaron-More a De-phasing effect, like, a slow vanishing with glow. Or alternately, a more gruesome irradiated death, maybe the body wouldnt disappear, just... change... Somehow...

Tetreyon-A more electric disintegration!

Antiproton-Since they are Antimatter protons, they would be rather explosive. (See Doomsday device) So, I would envision the persons body turning into a glowing mass in the shape of the body, then it explodes!

What do you think?

    Oh, also, since Season four is mainly about ground combat, this could be part of the revamp. Also, any suggestions to different effects they could have instead of the ones I stated? I would like to know if this is a good idea or not, either way. :D

    I like this idea, it would definately be a neat little polish added to the weapons.

    What would Proton damage from the Devidian rifle do? :P

    Well, honestly, I was thinking (Not sure why) a 'dust in the wind' type of thing. The body is blown apart particle by particle into nothingness!

    Or maybe an ACTUAL disintegration, different than a Vaporization.

    Ooh, and the Type 3 phaser rifle could of more an explosive vaporization than the rest.
