===Design details=== | ===Design details=== | ||
The volt caster is a pistol of [[Jiralhanae]] design, created by the [[Sicatt Workshop]] and manufactured by the [[Armory of Reckoning (location)|Armory of Reckoning]]. The weapon is designed to fire in a full automatic mode of fire, discharging a small active-dynamo munition capable of attaching to surfaces, including infantry and vehicles. Once attached, the bolts discharge a high-output current to their target, which are capable of incapacitating and immobilizing enemy targets. Should several individual bolts become attached to the same target in a close enough vicinity to one another, they are capable of detonating in a manner similar to that of [[ | The volt caster is a pistol of [[Jiralhanae]] design, created by the [[Sicatt Workshop]] and manufactured by the [[Armory of Reckoning (location)|Armory of Reckoning]].

The Disruptor was used by [[Banished]] forces on [[Installation 07|Zeta Halo]] during their [[Battle for Zeta Halo|long-term occupation]] of the ringworld. Banished forces typically find the weapon's main use in infiltration [[pack]]s - with scout forces using them to disable enemy technology for long enough durations as to allow regular shock troops to overrun them.{{Ref/Reuse|EN}} | The Disruptor was used by [[Banished]] forces on [[Installation 07|Zeta Halo]] during their [[Battle for Zeta Halo|long-term occupation]] of the ringworld.

*'''[[Calcine Disruptor]]''': A modified variant of the Disruptor that fires delayed detonation rounds, though with a decreased magazine capacity from 10 to 7.{{Ref/Game|HINF|[[Forge]] - Calcine Disruptor description|Quote=Modified with delayed detonation rounds.}} Unlike the normal Disruptor, the Calcine variant can disable any vehicle in one shot. During the [[Battle for Zeta Halo]], the [[Unggoy]] known as [[Bipbap]] carried a Calcine Disruptor.{{Ref/Reuse|HI}} | |||

The Disruptor is a fully-automatic pistol that deals shock damage like the [[Dynamo grenade]]s and the [[Sicatt Workshop shock rifle]]. Although the individual rounds deal a little damage to a target, 3 shots to the same target initiates a DOT (damage over time) effect that drains shields first before draining health. The weapon is also capable of disabling vehicles after seven hits have been landed on a given target. In the campaign, the Disruptor is wielded by high ranking [[Unggoy]], [[Kig-Yar]], and used as a backup weapon for [[Jiralhanae Sniper]]s. In multiplayer, the Disruptor is capable of killing an enemy Spartan in 6 shots. | The Disruptor is a fully-automatic pistol that deals shock damage like the [[Dynamo grenade]]s and the [[Sicatt Workshop shock rifle]].
