The Extinguisher

stats
this is a weapon, so it needs stats to function. help create some! also we already have a flare gun that extinguishes players, so make some other stats. (manmelter)

i like the idea, but change the name so it doesn;t get confused with the axestinguisher.
as for stats try these

It fires globs of hot steaming water, not a flare.
it can put out teammates ( and enemies) , but it doesn't ignite enemies, it coats them in water, which causes mini crits on the enemy.

+20% damage on hit
+chamber holds 2 shots

-30% ammo capacity
-puts out enemies

Just putting it out there, one of the first things I could think of...
"The Boiling Blaster"

As for stats, i think a slower reload time should be put in effect -10 to -20%. I do think that the fact that it will put enemies out but basically "Jarate" them will be nice, which is why I think a slower reload is important. Are we making it have splash damage like the "Sorch Shot"? So you can get multiple people "wet" at once?
Also, I think that there should be a -10% damage on it (its hot water, not fire...), however other Pyros will not have any resistance to it (since it is not fire, its hot water...).

i agree with the reload time and the new name is good. it can coat mulitiple people so that a pyro could be high up on a map, shoot it down into a battle and assist your team in causing mini crits. I also thinks that your idea is good, since its water, not fire, pyros get coated in it as well.

Fires an Airblast
Reloads like a flaregun
Basically flamethrower airblast with twice as many shots

Well with the reload like a Flaregun, I was thinking that it was going to take longer if it had to be pumped back up (similar to the Righteous Bison) so you built preassure back up to shoot more water, which in reality, would take longer to do so than just reloading a flare. My reasoning is that we don't need a Pyro to have the ability to "Jarate" the entire other team in seconds, which is why I also like Bruce's idea of a lower ammo cap.
In addition, I think that the "Boiling Blaster's" range/porjectile speed should be reduced, so having a high position would be the best way to fire at far away opponents...
yeah, we dont want the weapon getting overpowered, yeah, so intstead of loading like a flare, charge like the particle weapons.

i didnt even know this was here, anyways, i do like the idea of the boiling water but it somewhat makes me want to make a new weapon that is crafted after that idea, while a fire extinguisher does not shoot out fire, this one does so because of irony, but if we would make it shoot boiling water, then that would be a little strange as to why the weapon does that and not fire, but if we turned something that boils water into a weapon, then i think those stats would be perfect.
Sill interesting nonetheless.
yeah, but i think keeping the water would make it a unique pyro weapon, and overall a unique weapon. it would be against the norm because the pyro is asscociated with fire, but having a weapon made out of the thing that stops fires is ironic, and humorous. Hey, buts thats just my opinion. You're the dev here

Deals large amounts of damage to burning targets, extinguishes the burn and gives fire resistance to the target for a set time

maye not, that might make it an almost useless weapon for pryo, it might kill the enemy but then trying to finish him off will be extremely hard with fire resistence.

Im definately going to agree with Bruce on that one, and Aceman, I'm sorry, but that's really funny. I don't really know where we go at this point though....

I could always make a new weapon with those stats and give bruce part of the % on the workshop, although right now im working on a crossbow, but dont tell anyone, its top secret!

i kinda just said that if bruce wayne said yes, then i would make model based off of the stats he came up with.

EDIT: oh jeeez sorry, i thought you where talking about the new weapon, not the crossbow, but if you want to help come up with stats then i would have to ask the person who requested the model to be made in the first place, in fact, you should ask him yourself.

that's his steam profile.

Anywho, bruce, would you be willing to be apart of the creation of such a weapon?
