RimRelics – Weapons – Burn
RimRelics is a series of small mods that add a variety of artifacts to the original game. These can be weapons, armor, items or buildings left on the planet as the legacy of long-extinct civilizations, brought in by interplanetary merchants or created by mad glitterworld scientists. The recipes for their creation have been lost over the centuries, or they are incomprehensible in principle, so such items are very rare and have great power and value.
The mods in this series are designed to be vanilla balance and lore friendly.
This particular mod adds to the game an invention of an ancient pirate king – burn weapons. These weapons use quantum stabilization to emit directed bursts of electrical energy. The discharges do not pierce flesh, but inflict terrible burns. Because they don’t have recoil and need for ammunition, burn weapons are very light and accurate, and their relative non-lethality allows them to be used to capture slaves. Designed as perfect weapons for raiders, they are, however, almost useless against heavy armor, mechanoids and energy shields.
