I’ve noticed that quite a few people are put off by the idea of a firearm for Guardians, however I do not understand why. They are far less ‘magical’ yes but a long range rife could easily fit the role of guarding your teammates. Snipers/Scouts/Recon are called Guardian Angels after all. (well I guess recon are hogs but you get what I’m saying)
1 could be a regular shot that causes burn on the 3rd hit or something
2 a knockback/interrupt/confuse
3 weak dmg shot that plants a symbol of protection at the target
4 shoot a healing/blinding beam
5 some sort of retribution to the group
I’ve gotten a real kick out of “Hurrr!!! I’ma burn you so hard you BLEED!” Absolutely love it
Honestly though, the flamethrower is best paired with Precision+Power.
I’ve been reading a lot of complaints from both engineers and guardians about their lack of a real ranged weapon so I was wondering how you all would feel about an inclusion of high powered (read:sniper) rifles. I personally love the scepter and wish that they would just make the pingpongs fly 2x faster but the idea of having a long-cast, long-range weapon sounds pretty cool especially given the guardians tendencies towards catching things on fire.
