Tooltip: This heavy weapon trades projectile speed for maximum output energy per shot. It is best for close-combat or for attacking slow targets.
Lore: This strange weapon is the culmination of unknown years of scientific development. It’s cooling modules are more advanced than any faction has ever seen. No manufacturer has come forward with designs yet and only a few thousand of them exist on the black market. Nobody knows where they come from, but they allow for an unprecedented high yield in power from a strange plasma laser seemingly manufactured by the same people. The combination of these two mysterious items made an unbelievably powerful weapon fit for even light crafts. It seems to sacrifice projection power for plasma condensation, so each bolt is unimaginably powerful, but extremely slow. It is actually recommended that pilots allow the weapon to overheat when firing, because the cooling module kicks in and almost instantly cools the weapon.
Visuals: Fires a black bolt like heavy blaster that glows green.
