Paracyst

The Paracyst is the pure Infested version of the Quanta, which can be acquired via Clan Research in the Bio Lab. Primarily a burst-fire weapon, the Paracyst possesses a secondary fire mode that allows it to shoot tethered harpoons at enemies, dealing damage and dragging them towards the player's position.

Characteristics
This weapon deals primarily damage.

Advantages:
 * Innate damage.

 * Harpoon deals consistent elemental proc.
 * Comes with a polarity.

Disadvantages:
 * Punishes missed shots more than automatic weapons.
 * Linearly less efficient — sometimes a target may only die with 4 bullets, which requires an entire second burst to be fired.
 * Low crit chance.
