Weapon Concepts: Caduceus, Ambrosia, and Nectar
The robot-sized counterparts to Gargantua and Pantagruel, but with a twist. These are the first ever “support weapons” - a perfect fit for support robots. Similarly to the titan magnetic weapons, they rip plates of metal off of your enemies, but unlike them, they have a scaled-down nanobot factory that processes the scrap metal into repair nanobots, which are spread in a 50m radius around your bot, healing you and your teammates whenever you deal damage.
These weapons also apply an effect. Just like other effects, It slowly charges up as you deal damage (and depletes if you don’t deal damage for too long), but unlike other effect applying weapons, the effect is applied to yourself. When the effect is fully charged, the weapons emit a burst of (meager) grey damage repair around you.
Sats wise, this would be a scaled down version of titan magnetic guns but with less damage due to the area heal.
Here is the animated video of Caduceus, the heavy weapon, firing and then repairing:

Decent idea, only thing is that is could get broken very easily. Kephris with their several hundred percent damage boosts could make gray damage a thing of the past with these. Plus, I’d personally want this as a bot, rather than a ability (the bot heals itself and nearby allies based on the damage it deals). As weapons, it lessens the already dwindling role of healer bots on the battlefield. Cool animation and design though, I’d love to see more concepts like this in the future!
