The folks at Richard Garriott's Tabula Rasa have released another Feedback Friday, this time talking about their Progressive Weapons System.

We've added several Progressive Weapons into the game, and we'd thought you might like to have some insight on our overall goal with this system.

Overview
Examples: Double barrel fire shotgun, triple barrel fire shotgun

Description: These weapons are more impressive looking versions of existing weapon types, introduced at mid to high levels to allow players further character differentiation. Ideally they will also have some balance tweaks from existing weaponry that may make them more ideal in particular situations, without being overpowered.

Goal: To introduce new and interesting weapons to players in a compelling way.
