Description & Flavor Text
- "Fires a charged electric shot. Headshots spread an electric lightning to other nearby Zeds."
- "Horzine recommends: Use it with several Zeds together."
Technical Information
Damage:
- Primary attack = 150.
- Bash = 27.
Upon hitting ZED's head this weapon tracks for nearby enemies to jump-damage their heads (check radius - ZED's collision cylinder radius + 2 meters). First closest enemy takes 150 damage. Then it checks for more enemies around newly damaged ZED. Second ZED takes x0.75, third - x0.5, fourth - x0.25. Each next jump-damage occurs after 0.15s delay since the previous one.
Initial projectile hit does not apply any EMP power on the ZED (only visually), but jump-damage does. However each hit to the head, be it initial impact of jump-damage, for a brief moment makes ZED behave as if it was EMP-panicked / shambling. This effect occurs with every hit on any ZED and has no cooldown, it is not a real EMP application but a simulation of what happens at the beginning of the EMP incap. For a moment this effect disables ZED's rage, attacks and other animations.
Damage Type = EMP (impact), None (jump-damage).
Rate Of Fire:

- Knockdown power (instant hit / jump-damage) = 20 / 20.
- Melee hit power (instant hit / jump-damage) = 100 / 100.
- Stumble power (instant hit / jump-damage) = 200 / 200.

Damage type is EMP for initial impact (affected by Sharpshooter's perk bonuses) and not specified for jump-damage (no bonuses from Sharpshooter perks nor ZEDs are weak or resistant to it).
