Richard LeMoon:
Liquid nitrogen canisters would do both.
Helios.:
true, but i think you would almost have to create a entirely different damage type of 'cold damage' wich realistically could only have that one weapon in it. also i dont think the clouds caused by such a weapon woudl last very long. also a weapon designed to heal is not going to be useful, and nobody will end up putting it on their ship

Actually, if you give it good arcs and turning speed like the Flare gun, aswell as somewhat of an ease of use when firing, it could easily end up being handy in many utility slots on ships, a Pyra's side, squid/galleon's back, even junker's front, a fish's left side, Maybe the 3rd or 4th slot weapon on the spire, top left on mobula etc. Every ship has some room for a convenience weapon.

if you shoot an artemis or something at a ship it leaves a little puff of smoke that you cant see through. what if instead of the damage, it just made a really big cloud of smoke. you could use it to give yourself some breathing room by shooting enemy ships, which would then have trouble seeing you through the cloud. alternately if you used something like lochnagar, it woudl explode earlier and put the cloud closer to you, to give YOU some cover from others.

I would love something like a smoke grenade launcher. Could be useful on a Galleon's rear gun, a Pyramidion's side gun, or one of the Mobula's million guns. Can't guarantee how often I'd use it, though, if it straight-up replaced a gun position. Maybe if it were an ammo type, or a flare gun secondary fire option? Or, as was suggested earlier, turn the flare gun into a "utility" gun with flares, smoke grenades, shot-blocking-nets, etc. That would be the best option, IMO.

Flares are OP enough
