    Once you are finished leveling up weapons in the game, it can be pretty boring, most just accumulate nonsense XP overtime for no real reason. A lot of weapons' final upgrades aren't even too impressive.
    This is my proposal, and it can work one of a couple different ways.
    Each weapon should have one final ultimate upgrade. This final upgrade will not be "instant game winners" or anything. They will be fair, but powerful, and very cool weapons that everyone will want.

    How will it work ? It can work multiple different ways:
    Prestiging Weapons
    Suppose you level up your Air Strike to an Artillery, afterwards it just sits around for a while doing nothing.
    This method will make it so when you finally reach the Artillery weapon, you can reset your Air Strike tier from the beginning. When you unlock Artillery the second time, you will also unlock the prestige weapon for Air Strike.

    XP Accumulation
    Alternatively, each weapon could have a set amount of XP you need to unlock the prestige version of the weapon. For example: To unlock the Shot's prestige weapon, you will need to accumulate 75,000 XP between all of the shot weapons.

    Weapon Uses
    As a counter to the XP Accumulation, each weapon could require a certain amount of uses of the weapon. For example: To unlock the Bouncy Ball's prestige, use the Bouncy Ball or Superball 750 times.

    Gear Shop
    This method is not preferred, but could be possible, perhaps after you max out a weapon, you can buy the prestige version of the weapon in the Gear Shop for a certain amount.

    What are the Prestige Weapons? Here's a taste of a few:
    Shot -> Behemoth
    [​IMG]
    Three Ball -> Abacus
    [​IMG]
    Grenade -> Grenade Launcher
    [​IMG]
    Flame -> Scorcher
    [​IMG]
    Roller -> Cruiser
    [​IMG]

    And every weapon will have one, curious as to what other ones would be? Or want to make a suggestion for one to be changed? I have a Google Document for each weapon with a description of each one.

    Ok now that I'm home. I have some suggestions for you for some of the weapons. Feel free the change your spread sheet to add the ones you like!

    Mortar Strike: (Airstrike Tier) Fires 5 mortars half the blast radius of Artillery but the same amount of damage. Scattered in this fashion below
    3 4 5
    1 2
    S&W 500: (Pistol Tier) Your revolver gun, but with 5 powerful shots instead of 6.
    Daddy Seagull: (Seagull Tier)
    Hyper Beam: (Laser Tier) Note: Laser must shoot in rainbow fashion
    MegaCluster: (Cluster Tier) Fires big roller, big shot, super splitter/breaker, 5 bounce, and mega digger. Could be a bit OP to use though.
    L.O.I.C.: (Satellite Tier) Low Orbiting Ion Cannon, does damage to ground as well.
    Blue Shell: (Shell tier) Should add that it goes after the enemy with the highest amount of health or points.
    Raging Birds: (Birds Tier) Adds Black Bird which blows up on impact.
    Nomads: (travelers tier) Arrows will occasionally stop and then go again. Doing a lot of damage if one were to fall on a tank.


    Also, you're missing Strobie in the flasher tier.

    This is great. Hopefully the added weapons won't be spinoffs and will actually be more creative like the ones you listed. It will be a ton of work for Kyle though.

    well i think that EVERY weapon may be a bit exagerated.But he can for sure add a prestige weapon version for the most "important ones.I think that just:
    -classic weapons(rollers,nukes,sniper ecc.)
    -very nice weapons(bull frog mage travelers))
    -weapons that have the opportunity to get a great and pretty obvious upgrade(like rain,thunder storm)
    should be able to get a prestige version
    weapon suggests for prestige weapons:
    magic strike:prestige of summoner,works like mage upgread but each shot does 5 dmg.But it doesn't shot only from the sky also from underground making x2 total of the normal amount of shots!
    toxic frogs:bull frog prestige wepon: every frog becomes purple.This toxic frogs would do x1,5 dmg sticking on the enemy dealing 5 dmg for 3 times.The big bull frog that get toxic power would do 20 dmg for 3 times
    final needler: works like a dual needler but it shot one more red shot at last.It does x3 normal dmg and it is shoted straigth
    thunder storm: prestige weapon of rain,3 ligthings that does 20 dmg each + 1,5 longer rain.
    super sniper:140 far range
    palm oil: works like palm first tier,but istead shoting 5 green shots it shots 5 yellow streams that looks like river shot,every stream does 50 dmg total
    anaconda: works like cobra but it does bigger explosions,12 dmg each and last longer
    debbeled nuke: does 80 dmg and is big as a nuke,when it is shoted it has a green ligth that glows,after 5 secs of the impact it starts to deal very high and random dmg all around the strike location.That dmg can be over 150 or just 20 it depends if radiations loves you or not.
    mexican segaull.Looks like a segaull with mexican hat.It does same dmg of segaull (the 2nd tier) but his poop actually leave flames cause you know mexican usually eat the powerfull SUPER JALAPENO
    bee queen:upgrade of bee hive,it works pretty much like bull frog it add to the shots one,very big that does very high dmg.The bee queem would do the same,a bigger bee that does 30 dmg
    However goomba i prefer the reset sytem!This is a nice way to lvl up all over again and it would bring back the old ssl2 conecpt of prestige :)

    I added Mortar Strike (moved the A-10 Warthog to Carpet Bomb)
    Added Hyper Beam
    Not sure if I should change Tractor Beam to L.O.I.C, I like the idea of an Ion cannon, but Tractor Beam would be a unique upgrade
    Added Blue Shell
    Added Raging Birds with name change and slight adjustment (added a white bird as well as black bird)
    Changed name of the Traveler upgrade to Nomad
    Also added Baffler name and Strobie name to document
    Adjusted the Magic Strike weapon to "Wizard" and made adjustment
    I pretty much already had the Poison Frogs, thats what the Dart Frogs are
    The rest of the suggestions were pretty much just damage buffs so I will see what I can do.

    I'm also working on the rest of the weapons now, we will see. I don't see it ever making it to the game but hey, it'd be cool with all this work

    Sorry I'm not great with naming things.
    - Fireworks Launcher: launches a few fireworks like rapid fire (basically when it hits ground it shoots up like a firework). I think 7 or 8 shots would be good
    - Smart Snipes: same as smart snipe but if the tracers hit 2 or more targets, it will snipe the first 2 hit by the tracers

    SubZero, did you mean just the prestige weapons as their own or did you mean get rid of tiers entirely?

    Tiers entirely. I think it is completly useless atm. Some are worse versions of there lower tier counter parts and just way to confuseing. If anything, give each weapon levels that increase damage by 5 alot like ssl2 did.
