This idea/suggestion is Open. You can respond to ask questions or discuss the idea and either vote it up or down if you believe it should or should not be implemented, respectively. Popular suggestions and ideas will be considered by the development team to become reality in-game.
Proposal
New weapons for bounty hunting
Justification
The justification is simple, to diversify weapon classifications and give some strength back to some of the players that want to remain ranged. I don't think it should be super game changing the challenge of hunting players is fun but I think it feels harder than it should.
Motivation
To hunt Jedi and other operatives
I would like to suggest a new line of end game weapons like wrist rockets and flamethrowers for the bounty hunting profession. They could be used to cause bleeds and give a small edge to bounty hunting profession.
 
I think you're going to need to flesh out/specify more the specific deliverables you'd like to see added to the game. BH/Commando already exists that would give you access to Flamethrowers, Rocket Launchers, and other Heavy Weapons. Keep in mind that adding new weapons that are innately better than all older weapons would throw balance off and introduce power creep. But that by itself doesn't mean adding new weapons is impossible.

One new weapon component that has been added fairly recently is the IG88 scope, which is a component that you can have a Weaponsmith craft a new weapon with that increases damage by a few percentage points, creating a powerful end game weapon.
 
The bigger concern is that the server has limited creators (3d modelers und effects) and they probably have enough on their list already
