Available as an Ultra Rare Level 5 [[Requisition system|REQ]] worth 150 REQ Points when sold, the ''Pool of Radiance'' operates exactly identically to a normal Fuel Rod Cannon, except that its projectiles are armed with a proximity airburst fuse. More importantly, the ''Pool of Radiance'' does more damage as its projectiles explode three times upon impact instead of once, making this weapon deadly against slow-moving targets (e.g. [[Warden Eternal]]s) and anyone who lingers in the fuel rods' explosion area in a radius of up to 4.05 m (13.29 ft).

In addition, the player must be careful to not use the weapon in close range, as they can be either severely harmed or killed by the explosions. This is especially important in the campaign mission ''Reunion'', as the ''Pool of Radiance'', like with other Fuel Rod Cannons, can still kill a campaign player character and make them unrevivable until their next respawn. | ||
