Tactical Information

  • Plas-101 Purifier first has to charge up before shooting, similarly to RS-422 Railgun.
  • This weapon deals AoE damage in a small area.

Known Issues

  • The in-game fire rate display is inaccurate, and instead copies the PLAS-1 Scorcher's value. The weapon fires much slower than this.
