Name: Blightbearer

Thinking it would be an Assault Rifle.
Rolled with Weapon Damage, Damage to Health, Damage to Targets out of Cover.
Mag Size: 50

Talent: Accumulative Injection

Dealing damage accumulates a damage pool. (Pool size is either infinite or some High-End number for a cap) Upon zooming in, switches to semi-auto fire or a charged shot and gives you Poison Ammunition. Semi-auto fire consumes (PH 10%) of the damage pool per shot fired and delivers damage as a Poison Status Effect over (PH 5) seconds. Fully charged shots consume the entire accumulated damage pool and delivers a lethal injection. 100% of the damage accumulated as a Poison Status Effect over (PH 5) seconds.

Status Effect Damage and Duration are increased with Status Effect Attribute.
Poison is a Status Effect that bypasses armor and effects Health "Directly".


The functionality of the weapon itself will be similar to Bullhorns Semi-Auto Fire mode, and Nemesis' Charged Shot. Unlike Bullhorn or the Nemesis, Blightbearer does not have any Weapon PERCENT increases because the damage it deals will be based entirely off of what the agent accumulates. In otherwords, you kill 10 enemies and for simplicity sake say they had 100 health each. You killed 10 of them, your Damage pool is at 1000 damage. Semi-auto fire will consume (X%) of the pool and deal that damage as a Poison Status Effect over (X) seconds. So say the Semi-Auto consumes 10% per shot.  And let's assume the Poison duration is the current default of 5 seconds. You would deal 100 Poison Damage over 5 seconds. (20 Damage per second for 5 seconds) Using the same factors in the Semi-Auto fire mode. The Charge shot would deal 1000 Poison Damage over 5 seconds. (200 Damage per second for 5 seconds)

Gist of this weapon is a single target Executor. This weapon would make "Health" Rolls more valuable instead of the dead stat that it currently is,
and it would give the Damage to Health roll some actual value in this Tank / Bonus Armor Sim we currently have, Heartbreaker was a nice touch but it transformed our tanks into temporary tanks with a lot of damage. 

Overall I feel as though, in regards to tank build, there should be more of a focus towards health instead of armor. But if you are going to stack
tons of armor there should be penalties, such as slower movement speeds due to the vast amount of "armor plates" you SHOULD be carrying around. Maybe with a health/armor rework on our agents we can bring back old talents, for example the old version of "Strained" back when it used to grant 10% critical hit damage for every 5% of your armor that is depleated. Or maybe the old Berserk Talent. Which was: +10% weapon damage for every 10% of max armor depleted. Ofc they would have to be reworked to fit in the current build, but that is not a decision for me to make so, 

Blightbearer. Enough said.

Since there are loads of players who have hundreds and thousands of apparel cache keys, what are we supposed to do with them? Why do we continue to receive them when veteran players already have everything in all of the collections, etc? How about allowing us to roll them into seasonal cache vendors for optimization caches, exotic caches or ?

This is such a waste of development and if this game is going to continue to be supported for another year, who the hell wants another years worth of useless keys?
