Remove and replace Punk

[Hellmonk]

The +7 greatsling "Punk" {freeze, rC+} is a pretty boring and pointless unrandart. If there must be a greatsling unrand, let's make it something unique. How about this:

The +3 greatsling "Jellyshot" {acid, rcorr, SH+3}. Dealing acid damage on a ranged weapon would be unique and reasonably powerful, and it has some actual flavor (your bullets become jelly).

I was just thinking about how boring Punk is the other day, great idea for an unrand!

I assume this will cause corrosion on the enemy as well?

[PleasingFungus]

Why SH+3?

Yes, that's the intention.

Why SH+3?

I swear at one point I had an actual flavor justification, but I can't remember what it was (the sling has a jelly that takes hits for you, maybe?). I will point out that there's currently no unrandart weapon that gives SH, so it's at least a unique bonus. I think it would be fine without it or with a different bonus instead though.

[Tiktacy]

Maybe this is just me, but I would like to see a significant increase in the slaying boost in exchange for *corrode added to the effects.

Imo though, simply changing it to a +7 Acid rCorr from a +7 freeze rC+ makes the most sense. Can't wait to see the pink recoloring of Punk.

It's just you.

I guess I'm doomed to be in the minority on this always (this is far from the first discussion about Punk) but Punk is not at all boring or pointless, it's fun and a great find on the right character. So what if it doesn't make the walls go into disco mode when you fire it or whatever?

[xentronium]

Mace of variability should totally do that.

Just the other day I was thinking Punk would go good with iceblast (to become a sort of analog to Hellfire), but a jelly slingshot sounds even more fun!

You can find a greatsling of freezing on the ground and enchant it to +7. Back when it was +12 it sort of maybe had a point, but now?

It is cool to get Punk, but it would be more cool if it was a jelly sling.

[Tiktacy]

Is there going to be a joke about the name "Jellyshot" and booze? Because I really hope there will be.

[Rast]

Keep the name the same.
