HAZE

Go back to > Weapons

The Haze is a Exotic, a primary weapon in The Cycle.

Summary
Discovered while developing a veltevite-powered plasma cannon, High Amplitude Zender Emissions were found to have an effect remarkable similar to the effect of energy field known as "The Cycle", though the decaying plasma core fueling it is much shorter lived than the anomaly surrounding Fortuna III.

A slow firing launcher, projectiles create a harming energy field on impact. Further discharges of the launcher into an active field into it, until reaching a critical point resulting in a devastating release of energy.

Modification
Only 1 of each type of mod (Rail,Handle/Stock,Body,Magazine) can be equipped at the same time.

AoE Mechanics
The main feature of the HAZE is AoE, although it does do 125 damage on direct hit it can do a lot more damage from the Dome of Pink Haze that is left where the projectile lands. You can shoot the Dome again to make it larger and stack damage, up to 4 times and the 5th time will explode the dome doing 500 damage in a 20m radius. This is by far the most unique gun in the game and is a very small niche use case. In practice it is often used for area denial as it does a decent amount of damage and effectively blinds anyone near it.

Be careful though, this gun does cause self damage!
