Mechanics- Pros and Cons
SedimentarySocks, I have an idea for the stats for the"The Tartan Terroriser". I play pug demoman and I find there are some problems with the existing grenade launchers. The "Loch'n'Load" and "Loose Cannon" are rarely used because of poor stats. That leaves you with one grenade launcher, stock. I think YOU have a real opportunity to enrich the traditional demoman and revolutionize the demoman hybrid with your new grenade launcher. All you have to do is get the stats right. This brings me to my ideas,

Pros
Does a shield charge when shield is equipped by clicking mouse 2, does damage of a crit sword
50% more primary ammo on wearer
50% larger clip size on wearer
25% faster firing speed
Same mechanics as stock when it comes to ground bouncing
(Optional: 25% faster projectile speed)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cons
If charger misses on shield bash, inducts a penalty of 10 life points
-25% damage per pipe
Once starting the reload process you cannot fire until fully reloaded/out of ammo
(Optional: Can only be used with shield)

(Optional: Slower or faster shield recharge rate)


I added the shield bash idea because of the bayonet on front your grenade launcher. This would revolutionize the demoman hybrid community. I am confident in saying that we need a new demoman grenade launcher, and you have brought us one. We just have to get the stats correct, so we can make a new grenade launcher worthy of tournament play. Your Tartan Terroriser is the key. The stats are locked away, waiting for us to find.

Ps. Community, add and take away ideas!!! WE want the Tartan Terroriser preffect.

Nice post, but if Valve choose to add it I have nothing to do with choosing the stats, sorry.

I think.. judging the blade this gun could make your charges more damaging and maybe the bombs have less blast radius

I feel like the bayonet should have a use like
alt fire to shoot a bayonet at your enemies and make them bleed!
+hitting players reduces cool down time
+pills mini-crit bleeding players
-20% slower firing rate
-can not detonate stickies when active
-20% less damage
+20% heavier pills
-no random crits

My idea:

+) On direct hit: instantly reload one shot for this weapon (taken from current ammo pool, has no effect if there is no ammo to load from, does not apply to rollers)
+) 15% faster firing speed (0.45sec attack interval)

-) No random critical hits
-) 50% damage penalty (50 damage on direct hit, 30 min. damage on rollers)
-) 50% slower projectile speed (to prevent long range spam and constant hitting, the weapon has different projectile physics so aiming is harder)

Spam launcher. Simple as that. The reload reward stat is a bit like the dragon's fury by rewarding consectutive hits with adding to the clip, but the grenades themselves are very weak and need to be used constantly.
Let me know what you guys think!

Sorry for necroing, but here's my two cents:
+30% increased charge damage
+ Projectiles stick to surfaces berfore exploding
-15% less damage on direct hit
-8% damage reduction if the projectile sticks
-35% explosion radious

And maybe add a bleed effect after a succesful charge, the duration of which is depending on which part of the charge did the hit connect.
