Flare Gun

The Flare Gun is a weapon that shoots a projectile, deals tick damage to enemies that come into contact with it, and continues to deal damage for a period of time even if the enemy leaves the AoE. It essentially acts as an alternative to the Molotov with a smaller area of effect, but higher damage potential and a longer lifespan.

Standard rarity.

Spray

The Spray is a weapon that is basically a lightweight version of the Burst Rifle, but with lessened damage. Since this weapon uses illegally-modified-armor-piercing-rounds, it can bypass Riot Shield and the deflection ability of Katana. This makes it one of the best secondaries for countering these weapons.
