★★★★☆ Offenses: Abilities: CTR: Level 5+: CTR: Low Level 10: CTR: Medium

The Virulent Catalyzer is a 4-star handgun.

Description

The incorporation of Spiral technology has given this harrowing handgun a powerfully poisonous payload. Catalyzer bullets envelop the enemy in an energy field that explodes after taking damage.

Energy field only explodes when contacted by charged shot.

Attacks

Basic Attack

Fires green energy orbs in rounds of three, which bind and orbit around an enemy. Multiple orbs can orbit a single target.

Charge Attack

Fires a larger green orb that sometimes inflicts poison. The orb moves fairly slowly in a straight line. When hit with a charge shot, any orbs circling any enemy from the normal attack (either from the user, or team members) will explode, dealing damage to other enemies in a small radius. The explosion has a chance of inflicting poison.

Damage

The following damage values represent the weapon at its completed level, without any UV or bonus from other equipment, and are listed as a range found from the first to last floor of each stratum.

Normal shots will do only 1 point of damage against all enemies.
