Random legendary weapon ideas

Legendary Nagual: 4 shots, rather than having the perk of Nagual where you get extra damage to X parts, you get 2 different kinds of firing modes, kind of like how the Slaughterer/Parser does. Single press of button = fires a single shot normally, hold to charge shot = fires out all remaining shots in the gun at rapid pace and good accuracy, with slightly boosted damage and penetration, but reloading takes noticeably longer after doing this charged shot compared to just doing single shots. Depending on how good the stats and damage would be, possibly one of those guns you can run only 2 on a build rather than three

Legendary Corvo: Think Lucifer, but instead of little rockets, it’s just bullets. 30 shots, not too high of a damage, after landing 15 shots the remaining shots do slightly increased damage, the perk slowly goes down when not firing so say you’ve hot 14 shots and go behind cover or become unable to shoot for whatever reason, the count goes down by 1 per second, 14 goes to 13, 13 to 12, 12 to 11 and you get the idea

Legendary turret: When dropped, drops with it’s own little Aegis shield around it, and basically whenever it is not shooting, the shield goes up. I was thinking it fires like a Naqual would, drops shield, 3 shots with nice damage with a second or so in between, then pops shield back up and takes some time to reload itself, before shooting again. A turret a bit more resistant to being fired at, but still pretty weak to being rammed like all turrets

Legendary king: drops a mine, that when explodes, also drops 4 smaller mines that then also explode, giving it more damage and “range”. Only 1 per gun of these can be dropped, rather than 2 like with the king

Legendary cricket: Rather than being a reload weapon with ammo, it’s a heating/cooling weapon. Basically continuous fire missiles, but with a much slower pace of firing than a normal cricket, otherwise works about the same

Legendary Locust: Turns and rotates so you can actually aim with it, otherwise the basic take epic weapon and boost the stats to be a legendary

Legendary Astraeus: You can hod the charged shot after charging it up for as long as you like, but while you are doing this it slowly accumulates charges (3 at max) that boost the self damage the gun does when you finally decide to fire it, so while you can not fire it instantly after charging it up, it’s going to cost you

interesting ideas, unfortunately buffing draco is easier to implement.

These are all indeed good ideas.
I personally love the Nagual one the most, since it’s a weapon I’ve actually used, and I did feel during use that it’s a bit in an awkward point between “firing all rounds quickly because that’s what having 3 bullets in the chamber allows” and “carefully aim each shot because that’s what this gun’s direct damage and accuracy encourage”. Making a super Nagual that can choose either end of the spectrum in the same battle based on circumstance would make a fun and excellent gun.
