I completely rewrote my main post, i have an archive of the old one though. Apparently, my main post was not clear enough and people were confused so a rewrite was necessary.
It no longer references unique items because i am not concerned with them, but unique items could be introduced with special coloured names etc BUT the problem with whole new items is the inherent balancing and bugs. Unique weapons dont necessarily have to have complex or numerous triggers, or even any additional triggers at all.
The [unique weapons] could simply be very expensive 30k+ weapons which have different coloured text. You dont have to call them uniques, just like switchable and specific-target weapons which dont have a 'class' of its own, but which i and many people call special weapons. The more 'conventions' chosen for a uniques, the more work exo needs on a unique weapon, but that should be expected of something that is not 'normal'.
PS. If you want to use ideas from the lists in your own weapon, well obviously create a new topic for it, dont discuss here. If you want to add to the list or change whats already there, post here.
