It's quite unique and has potential to be built into something worthy of being close to the front page. However it's gotta receive the right 'mounts of love.

(1) Increase projectile speed of thrown boomerangs.

(2) Increase damage output for thrown boomerangs.

(3) Augment the swep to have a standby melee attack when not in use (?).

(4) Introduce different types of boomerangs. Different sorts could be displayed with particular coloring, particle effcts, for example.
  • Ex #1: Fire . . . . . Boomerangs are incendiary.

  • Ex #2: Psychic . . . Boomerangs slightly home in on nearby enemies.

  • Ex #3: Freeze . . . Boomerangs behave like ones from The Legend of Zelda; they momentarily freeze targets.

  • Ex #4: Explosive . . . Boomerangs explode upon colliding with a surface.


  • Ex #5: Tri . . . . . . . . . Three (3) boomerangs are thrown at the same time.

Increase the spin speed, and give it a new sound. It sounds like it's in slow motion...

This guy is a genius, probably port some boomerangs and add some modding magic.. And bonza! You got yourself some bloody Ty the Tasmanian Tiger boomerangs.

Some kind of homing boomerang? Maybe a boomerang that can lock onto X targets at a time (Yes I know WW fan here)

add a boomarang that homes in on the person who threw it so that it always comes back. even if it hits a wall or kills an enemy. it may not be realistic but it would be cool. eather that or a capten boomarang boomarang

Explosive Boomerang.
Design: Multiple Mini-explosives attached to default boomerang.
Mechanics: Slower throwing speed, will not return because of physics. 200 damage on contact. 25-180 splash damage, depends on how close it is. Will activate if hits wall hard enough, or if it doesn't, it will activate over 10 seconds.
Best at: NPC horde, a really big tough NPC.

If not possible, poison boomerang.
Design: Sharp Boomerang, smaller sharp edges. But the sharp edges have green all over them.
On Hit: 25-30 damage max. But 200 damage overtime ( 5 damage per second passively. )
Optional stuff: The affected NPC will stop moving and do a coughing animation. Evantually, most optional. They will kneel down in pain.

If thats still not possible, Grapple Boomerang
Design: Sharp Boomerang with a rope.
When thrown: The boomerang will return, less effectively.
When hits wall or NPC: When it hits the wall, it will connect and pull you automatically. When an NPC is hit, they will slowdown, and be pulled towards you.
