I was thinking about the Rogga artstyle when I thought of the Blunderbuss from Looper.

(XBOX)Fluffywolf36 Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 (edited) Cephalon 'Spectacor' Tesla Shotgun โCephalon shotgun that fires a burst of electrolasers which arc to nearby enemies on direct hits.โ Primary Fire: Tesla Shotgun - fires electrolasersSecondary Fire:ย Beam - a utility beam that releases radial heat damage ย Special Traits:Auto Charge: Whenย in primary fire, this automatically charges a successive shot after firing, using surplus energy to recharge the chamber. This is meant to make the weapon less cumbersome. And, psychologically, it will make you think youโre firing a pump-action on account of the sound. Arc Beams:ย On direct hitsย in primary fire, electricity has a 75% chance chain to the closest living enemy in range dealing half the beamโs damage. From there it will chain additional times (2 to 3 times total), halving the damage each time. Chance to arc decreases from 75% -55/% - 35/% from initial hit. Lore ย The Spectacor uses an array of micro-laser emitters (By default, set to wide-dispersion-wave mode) and directional prongs to ionize nearby enemies and unleash a burst of electrolasers, which saturate an area with electricity. In altfire, it fires a precise, short-ranged beam just outside the shotgunโs effective range, which superheats anything within a 1.5m radius of the point of impact. While originally meant for welding and construction, it found a use (As so many things often do in the Origin System) cutting and clearing Infested biometal and plesh. As it fires, the curved Gammacor-like prongs float and twist backwards, giving the weapon a silhouette similar to a crossbow. But itโs more than just a shotgun and welding combo. It can easily be reconfigured to work as a comms laser-based field transmitter, navigational beacon, less-lethal electric tool, network repeater, spectrometer - the Spectacor boasts a wide variety of functions. Built for Cephalon operatives accustomed to harsh conditions far outside the few pockets of civilization within the Origin System, itโs a rugged, powerful weapon that pushes Cephalon construction precepts to their limits. These rare operatives (And even some Tenno, trusted with exploring areas still scarred by the Old War) swear by the Spectacor. Reported uses include reactivating ship systems, gathering data on Void and Sentient events, welding barricades into place, relaying information to Cephalons Suda and Simaris, creating emergency communications arrays, rendering suspects of interest unconscious, taking on crowds of enemies, and sabotaging enemy machinery. It loads from a battery just under half the size of the average Corpus Power Cell, placed inside the stock in a manner similar to the Tenno โTiberonโ burst fire rifle. ย Artist Notes: โฆI donโt know what โpleshโ is. As inspired by @Stellar_Seekerโs Fulgrok, which made me start asking the question: What if the Amprex was a shotgun with the Semi trigger? While I donโt regret asking the question, Iโll be the first to admit: It was very difficult.ย Cephalon weapons, as some of you know full well, areย seriouslyย uncharted territory for us. We only have about three to work from, not counting unique variants. And the aesthetic there is not exactly conducive to shotgun designs. The ideal โshotgun silhouette,โ in my mind, should be short, heavy, and thick. (Nevermind that Iโve bent this rule with the Tenebrae, but whatevs) Meanwhile Cephalon designs are ultra-minimalist and spindly, which does not exactlyย workย with my vision of a recognizable shotgun.ย Predictably, I ended up just copying from the Scattershot from Halo 4 and onwards - I just made sure to add lots of floating, spindly individual parts. This is also why you can see so many floating parts. Iโm sure youโll also be able to find some in the same places on the Scattershot. The alt fire wasโฆ. well, I admit it. It was tacked on. But it felt right to add it in - to give the weapon a feature that added a little more depth. The low-to-average crit is there in sort of an homage to the Strun Wraith - yes, you can build it for crit, but unlike with the Strun Wraith and more like the Astilla, you just gotta ask:ย Should I? After all, I have a crit build Astilla. Itโs pretty good. The main reason behind the status focus was because every shotgun Iโve made so far (at least, all the shotguns Iโve statted, counting the minuscule amount of effort I put into starting the Somesha) has either been crit-focused, had a status-focused altfire, or both! Usually both. Since status shotguns are The Thing in Warframe, I figured I might as well cater to it here. Originally, I was going to give it 37% status, but >30% status and decent crit are the Strun Wraithโs thing. I donโt want to encroach on that. I like Strun Wraith.StatsPrimary Fire: Tesla Shotgun - fires electrolasersย ย ย Trigger: Semiย ย ย Damage:ย 510ย ย ย ย ย ย Electricity: 240ย ย ย ย ย ย Slash: 160ย ย ย ย ย ย Puncture: 110ย ย ย Fire Rate: 3.0sย ย ย Projectiles:ย 8ย ย ย Magazine: 6ย ย ย Status Chance:ย 12% ย ย ย Critical Chance: 15% ย ย ย Critical Multiplier: 1.9x ย ย ย Reload: 1.2s ย ย ย Falloff: ย ย ย ย ย ย Full Damage to 11mย ย ย ย ย ย Min Damage at 22mย ย ย ย ย 60% max reduction ย Secondary Fire:ย Beam - a utility beam that releases radial heat damageย ย ย Trigger: Charge-continuousย ย ย Damage: 96 Electricity (on impact)ย ย ย Charge Time: 0.6sย ย ย Fire Rate:ย 12.0sย ย ย Range Limit: 24mย ย ย Radius:ย 1mย ย ย Ammo Cost: 0.5ย units per shotย ย ย Area Attacks:ย ย ย ย ย ย ย Damage:ย 36 heatย ย ย ย ย ย Blast Radius: 1.5mย ย ย ย Status Chance: 30%ย ย ย Critical Chance: 17%ย ย ย Critical Multiplier:ย 2.0x Special Traits:Auto Charge: Whenย in primary fire, this automatically charges a successive shot after firing, using surplus energy to recharge the chamber.

I was justย okayย with the regular Gammacor (It wasn't groundbreaking and it wasn't the best beam weapon I've ever used, it was just okay I guess) and I've never used the Simulor... but it's always confused me a little how I have such a hard time trying to understand how the Simulor works. In a game like Spacelords, it'd totally fit in as one of Aneska's weapons, but in Warframe - where there'sย so much stuffย going on at any time - sometimes I just need a weapon that I can immediately understand and doesn't feel like a minigame all on its own. Y'know what I mean? P.S - Aneska's weapons are here. The Ionizer is the only one I actually think people would be willing to use if I somehow managed to export all of these to Warframe. Like.... with how fast-paced Warframe is and how many enemies we're typically up against, I seriously doubt that anyone would have the patience to use the Invictus (it fires bouncing explosives).

IT IS TENNO 'SOMESHA' AUTOSHOTGUN "Teach the corrupt and vile of the Origin System an object lesson in power with this slash-and-crit focused Tenno autoshotgun." ย Stats: Primary: Razor Buckshot Shells Crit Chance - 35%Crit Multiplier - 3.0xStatus Chance - 11%Damage:ย 288 ย ย ย 144 Slash ย ย ย 96 Puncture ย ย ย 48 ImpactAccuracy: 9.5Magazine: 20Trigger:ย Auto-SpoolRate Of Fire:ย 4.1Reload:ย 3.2sAccuracy:ย 9.1Secondary: Dragon's Breath Shells Replaces all base damage types with heat. This is mostly so the wiki can have the Somesha proudly listed as the onlyย "Auto Spool" shotgun. (Maybe I don't even need this... ah, well. C'est la vie.) Traits: Accurizing Choke -ย spread becomes tighter the longer it's fired. ย Lore A crit and slash-based Tenno autoshotgun made by the maker of the Soma, in a competition between them and the Archimedian that created the Pandero, Tenora, andย Quadrille. Where the maker of the Quadrille went for flexibility, the maker of the Somesha went for overwhelming force. In a fit of pique, he "borrowed" the accuracy-and-stability enhancing mechanisms of the Tenora, giving the Somesha tighter spread the longer it's fired. Its "Dragon's Breath" altfire also shoots out a cone of fire, which the Archimedian determined (correctly) would give it incredible usefulness against Infested. Coincidentally, this also means it is compatible with Combustion Beam. While it saw limited use in the Sentient War, it was well loved by Tenno, Dax soldiers, and others who used it to purge Infested. ย Artist Notes:ย Sometimes, I have complex concepts for weapons. This was not one of them, because - say it with me -ย Crit-based autoshotgun! As inspired by the Soma. Yes, it's a Soma in shotgun form. You want this now, don't you? Don't lie. Originally, I called this the Amos. This was nixed, on the basis that while it was a cool Expanse reference, it just felt silly to have 'Soma' backwards. The name is actually the causative tense of the Swahili word 'Soma,' which means "to read." Somesha, however, means "make read," or "Educate." I was going to go for a a name that felt more Warframe, inspired by Sanskrit or hinduism or Japan, or China, but then I was all like "ehhhhh..." cause it was 8:00 and I haven't eaten yet.
