"Found the cap right at station in CIC, colder than a cryopod. Half the ship brass too, and not all matching halves." - Salvor verbal report, hyperspace recovery of ISS Augusta

–In-Game Description


Notes

Essentially a Heavy Blaster that deals fragmentation damage. This results in slightly lower damage per shot and DPS against armour and shields (Fragmentation is only 25% as effective as energy against these), but much, much higher damage against hull. Has slightly better flux efficiency than the heavy blaster.
