Im saying charged as a lack of a better word here, and some more words also .

(Copied and pasted from a other suggestion from me)

....Charged mining beam......ores you mined charges it up to a limited amount(?) ,and then fires slag chunks of the ores at a speed depending its charge. Like charged cannons but need perm ores to fire, uses 4ore per shot, damaged scale of the type and speed it fires, xrite ore does let's say most dmg of the ore dmg spectrum(tree?) But semi low velocity. Carbonic has low dmg output but faster velocity than the xrite.

Leave your idea below, i know someone is going to say something about latos n2 and its perm ores because it'll probably use perm ore as ammo, i say perm because its a charged mining beam and not a slag cannon unloader from old ores.

Edit: forgot to add contect of my idea

I am not saying no but....What is the point? It would be a poor weapon at best.

I forgotten to add contect to the idea, edited it at the bottom.

The idea was for a miner style weapon, as in you can mine ores but if a bot wanted YOUR ores, you'll use them sweet ores you mined to blast it into junk. Blast as a in a crude high slagged chunk of metal projectile of a certain type.

All honesty i wanted to give ideas to new weapon ideas that could be used for fun, like come on, an expensive mining gun that can fire flashy metallic slag chunks at your enemy flying debatable speeds and damaged, how can't that be fun?

It would also be a way for the devs to test (?) Ammo type weaponry.

Also its already balanced in my opinion with the ammo, you'll never have a super high speed and super high damaged slag chunk, got to sacrifice one for the other (unless its pure xith hehe)

This weapon would be more of junkgun type of thing (fallout 4 weapon) as I can see it, would be nice if you can load up commodities.

That'll take the mining aspect out of it then in my opinion

Sounds interesting. It would have to be balanced for pvp but sounds like fun. When I mine however, I usually just do small loads with a centaur and 1 beam 2 weapons. Most of the ore i mine is in nasty sectors and I would not be fond of jetting it for the sake of getting a bot off my ass.
If the weapon acts as a propulsion weapon like the concussion mines, +1.

Bark, so like recoil? Im going to assume it would push you back, so unless you turn off F/A and fire backwards with the ores you got.

Or do you mean a conc effect when you hit an enemy? If so then it does sound logical. Your being hit by a half molten crude slag chunk an ore, if it doesn't hull pen you (not that that logic in vo applys) you would be pushed back a bit.

I mean like a concussion effect but not a lot of damage. It could be useful to get a nasty bot away from you. Fun in pvp too, bring a heavy ass loaded ship and just pop everyone away xD

No i didn't mean give a huge OP damaged, VeXeD would go crazy if that was a thing xD.

The type of ores it'll fire will have a slight change to either conc effect, velocity and damaged.
