Special Maneuvers
Precision Shooting - hold the weapon with both hands to increase chance to hit, +5 to hit.
Rapid Shooting - If dual-wielded, fire two bursts instead of one with a -5 to hit. You may use this maneuver again after the end of your next turn.
Trickshot - Designate a specific body part to hit and deal specific conditions to the target (must be held with both hands, no offhand). You may use this maneuver once per short or long rest.
Torso: The target must make a Constitution Saving Throw against a DC15 or be dazed
Arms: You impose disadvantage on all attacks made by the target until the start of your next turn
Legs: You hamstring an opponent and reduce their movement by half until the start of your next turn
Special Properties
Arc Lightning Chain - Lightning arcs from the first target struck to a nearby target within 15 feet, dealing your Proficiency Bonus in unmitigated Lightning damage to the secondary target.
Electric Shock - Targets that have been hit with this weapon's ranged attack cannot take opportunity attacks until the start of your next turn.
Light - Can be wielded in both hands.
Rechargeable - During a short rest, the power cells can be recharged to half. During a long rest, the power cells can be recharged fully.
Loading: Fast recharge (charge 6 shots) with a bonus action. Requires a full action to recharge completely. If dual-wielded, both a bonus action and action must be taken to reload.
Jamming: On a critical failure, roll a 1D12, if it lands on a 4 or less, the weapon is jammed and requires a bonus action (D&D5E) or an action point (PF2E) to clear the jam but also does 1d8 lightning damage to the wielder on the secondary fail
Handling: 1-handed
Additional Properties: CQC - +5 bonus to hit if between 30 and 10 feet of the target while using both hands to hold (no offhand), no disadvantage if target is in melee range
A portable electrolaser pistol designed by the Drakaan, this particular weapon is highly portable and also incredibly dangerous. It ionizes a path for plasma to travel along and then creates an electrical discharge similar to lightning. This weapon is most often used as a sidearm for Drakaan engineers and commanders. It has some 'guidance plating' that allows the user to adjust the range and channel the lightning to the destination of choice.
