+20% more boolet per second
-the longer spun up the less accuracy
-50 ammo

Here's a Idea.
+ 10% speed when active, unless revved
+20% more ammo
+Spread narrows the longer it's used while revved
-REV downside of other mini guns happens when revved.
-10% damage pentily
- +20 damage from explosives taken.

If it's bad sounding you can tell me.

Really like the developer's suggestions, however that damage penalty is extremely unnecessary. The reduced initial accuracy and fire rate alone would absolutely balance out the upsides. Sure, it'd be effectively a better minigun if you revved up preemptively before a conflict, but that's also the case for the Brass Beast and it's arguably Heavy's worst primary.

Without that damage nerf, this strikes me an an excellent side-grade. Superior in extended conflicts, but a hindrance in more mobile situations.

Movement speed increases the longer weapon is reved or fired. (Up to a cap) Speed increase reset on spin-down.

-?? base movement speed on wearer
-Cannot replenish ammo while reved

This is a really neat idea, but anything that increases Heavy's movement is incredibly dangerous, ESPECIALLY if it allows him to attack people at the same time.

Now, if he only got the speed buff while damaging people, and the gun did 20% less damage or so, THAT could be interesting! Like a reverse Natasha. If you made sure the speed buff basically instantly went away the moment you stopped shooting something, it would ensure it was only used during combat. Plus, it'd require perfectly tracking your opponent while dealing with that extra speed, which would greatly increase Heavy's skill ceiling, making the class much more engaging to play and improve with!

Developer Suggestions:

Vladislavia
Level XX Minigun

+The longer you are spun up and firing for, the narrower your cone of spread becomes.
+The longer you are spun up and firing for, the faster your firing speed becomes. (inadvertently would chew through your ammo at an insane rate)
-30% less accurate when first spun up.
-20% damage penalty.

Cool idea. A minigun that can compete with the tomislave for accuracy, but what is that max firing speed? Or give it some state like - No ammo from dispenser while active - to prevent it from reaching firing speed 9999 and mow through anyone.

+ 20% faster spin up time
+ 15% damage bonus
- 20% slower firing speed
- 25% ammo capacity

+ Increases damage the longer you spin with a max of 50% more damage after 10 seconds

Has a meter that fills up while you're revved up. At half charge (5 seconds), you start taking burn damage, and at full charge (10 seconds), the minigun blows up, dealing damage to you and nearby enemies. After the explosion, you have to wait 15 seconds, and after the overheat, you have to wait 5 seconds.

"Oh, little babies can't help but whine at me gun's power! Huohahahah!"

Meant as a "Light" snowball for Heavy (what i consider a "Light" snowball, is when the progress of a snowball weapon can be reverted without killing the user, and there are often drawbacks even at It's best), which can escalate your team's power in a battle, being capable of sustaining both speed and durability in good moments, but still having a constant penalty.

dragons fury ammo drane but instead of the ring it gives either no speed debuff or a speed buff. maybe a damage decress
