Attacks

Basic Attack

Fires a very slow moving blue projectile up to 9 squares away, allowing up to 3 shots before reload. Bullets from this gun tags any enemy it touches.

Charge Attack

Catalyzer charge attack before being ignited by normal shot

Catalyzer charge attack after being ignited by normal shot

Fires a very slow moving energy orb that has a range of 9 squares. The recoil from the attack pushes back the player's Knight 2/3 of a square when firing. If the enemy is struck by a charge attack from this weapon while the orb is in orbit, it will detonate, damaging and knocking back the target and all nearby enemies. Having an enemy tagged with multiple orbs will increase the size of the explosion. Any undetonated orbs will expire after 20 seconds. Orbs that are not yours are not restricted to your own gun, meaning any player with any level of the Catalyzer can detonate the orbs.

Below table shows the approximate charge time in milliseconds:
