Supernova

Supernova

Weapon Mod

Fires the compressed remains of a dying star. On contact, explodes for 150 - 450 FIRE damage, and 350 - 1,050 BURNING damage over 10s to all targets within 4m.

Striking the Supernova with Aphelion's primary fire spawns a massive shockwave which greatly increases the area of effect, total damage, and applies the initial BURNING amount.

Generates 1 Primary Ammo on Fire.

Mod Power Requirement: 1,000

“Alepsis-Taura—the very jaws of creation—looms just beyond our grasp. There can be no scientific explanation for what it is we KNOW to be true.

That the answer we seek rest inside that black star.”

—Precept Surus, Precept Surus, Log #2
