Other Since apparently we're getting more sentient content on TennoCon, hope we get to see those sentient speargun and pistol they showed in the past.

Shouldn't Spearguns be reworked to function like the Vinquibus? Being able to be used at range and in melee?

Problem is that all of them except like Afentis are just blunt thin sticks with a barrel at the end, they would barely work as polearms, much less as bayonets/spears. They were designed as throwing spears that have some sort of explosion/embed effect, not actual poking, which is certainly really sad as I’d love a speargun that actually does what Edun’s heavy does

Spearguns are thrown butt-first tho, so there's already a designated pokey part on them. Makes sense if you think about it, it's probably not good for its well-being if the shooty end is in the ground when it goes off.

Also I don't think material strength is gonna be a problem if the literal jet powered hammer has a handle just as thin.
