A Sister’s Journey
Blaster

Blaster

A pretty basic but solid weapon nonetheless, often favored for its low energy consumption.

Rapid Pulse Rifle

Rapid Pulse Rifle

Its fire rate is almost unmatched, delivering quick and precise bursts of damage.

Fires Fiery Pulses in quick succession.

Secondary

Rapidly launches a volley of Burning Needles, which can Ricochet off walls and solid surfaces, reducing their further damage by 10% each time.

Exploration upgrade

Lightning Gun

Lightning Gun

Perfect for frying smaller groups of enemies quickly and effectively. Damage for each subsequent target in the current chain is reduced by 25%.

Primary

Fires a series of Energized Shrapnels, each one rather weak on their own, but very powerful when hitting in large numbers.

Impact Blasts will now lock into Ion Power Generators or similar working devices, powering them up.
