CCD Buff/Change - Bread On The Loaf - 05-05-2021

The Candy Cane Deagle (CCD) has been around forever, and has been nerfed once in the past, but this thread is just about making the gun usable again. As it stand the CCD is nothing but a nuisance.

Issue #1
The CCD main trait is that it has a chance to freeze the player in a block of ice and deal damage over time. The only issue now is that the freezing of someone does not actually deal the damage over time that it says it will in the trait description, and instead gives them about 11 to 15 seconds of invulnerability. Which can very often screw over whoever decides to use a CCD.

Issue #2
Even if the trait did, ya know, do what it says it will, the fact that the freezeing of a target comes before the actual bullet damage is just bad design. Why would anyone ever use a CCD over an ordinary deagle when if you headshot someone that could just be cancelled because oops unlucky ccd proc and saves their life. This is compounded by the issue that the ice block again does not even deal its damage.

Mainly I and many other people who use a ccd on the regular are just asking for some love. Fixing issue #1 is of most priority as it is in the trait description that it should deal damage. Issue #2 I can live without being addressed if that is really how it was intended, but I will still complain about it.

Thank you for your time and have a wonderful day.
