Concepts: Friendly Firearms

Here's two friendly firearms, designed to offer support solutions. I always like the idea of weapons which work in nonconventional ways, so firearms that provide support-style buffs is always fun. Now the danger of these designs, as I'm sitting here, is that their inoffensive "support" nature may not make their effects immediately apparent to players. I want to tighten and generalize these buffs a bit, too.


The Starting Gun  
Scout Secondary 
Fires a shot that gives all allies in range the Athletic buff. Works on a charge timer (30 seconds)

Athletic: Grants allies ten seconds of protection from fall damage, plus a scout-style midair jump.


The Signal Flare
Pyro Secondary
Fires a team-colored flare which confers the Firefighting buff to all allies in its AOE,

Firefighting Buff: Melee weapons deal critical hits on flaming opponents.
