Silent Siren

The Silent Siren is a shoulder-mounted air raid siren that uses long bursts of noise to deal heavy damage. It was made by WindowsError1495 as the long-awaited Heavy weapon to be added to the Erroneous Armaments collection.
== Description ==
This air raid siren was gathering rust in an abandoned military base, so we decided to take it back to our laboratory and see if we couldn’t use it in something far more useful. Now, don’t let the name fool you: it’s far from silent. In fact, it’s probably the loudest thing we’ve ever designed, which is why they come with a free set of earplugs.
== Overview ==
This weapon functions completely differently from other Heavy weapons in the category. Instead of dealing a large burst of damage at once, it damages opponents overtime in a radius around the general area where it is “shooting”. Enemies that are either close to you or are in the weapon’s area of effect will constantly take damage and are slowed until they can exit the weapon’s effected radius. Affected enemies will also have hindered weapon accuracy so that you don’t have to worry as much in that regard. Even rocket weapons with perfect accuracy will still have considerably more projectile spread than firing normally, making it perfect for throwing off Big Buddy spam. Your opponents may even blow themselves up by accidently shooting their own heavy weapons at their feet!
Unfortunately, the player needs to be in uncomfortably close proximity to the target to be used optimally, so getting up in someone’s business is the name of the game for this weapon. Ammo for this weapon is very limited with only two full reloads in reserve. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself running out of ammo at the worst possible times or frustrated that your selfish ”teammates” keep hoarding all of the ammo to themselves.
== Tactics ==
* Always keep this weapon trained on the target you want to kill first
* Never run into an open area with snipers since this weapon is ineffective at long ranges
* Treat every corner like there’s an enemy right behind it, and prefire when necessary
== Counter-Tactics ==
* Go to open areas and backpedal so the weapon is less effective
* Use a faster-firing weapon or shotgun to increase the chances of hitting a user
* Take advantage of the user reloading to gun them down
