Staticor

The Staticor is a set of Corpus Gauntlets released in, that is Researched from the Energy Lab in the Clan Dojo. Functioning similarly to throwing knives, the Staticor fires slow-moving energy bolts that explode upon hitting a surface, hitting an enemy or simply travelling for enough time, dealing damage in an area of effect.

It has a unique charging mechanic that increases the bolt's damage and area of effect at the expense of its velocity. However the Staticor will continue to consume ammunition the longer a shot is held without firing it.

Characteristics
This weapon deals damage.

Advantages
 * Innate damage, highly effective versus Alloy Armor and Infested Sinew, can also confuse targets.
 * Shots can be charged by holding down the Primary Fire key/button, increasing damage and blast radius.
 * Shots create a small area of effect blast upon impact with a surface or enemy, dealing more damage at the epicenter.
 * Firing the weapon at point-blank causes the enemy to ragdoll, giving this weapon a decent amount of crowd control.
 * Comes with a polarity.
 * High status chance.
 * Large magazine size and ammo reserves.
 * Short reload time relative to magazine size.

Disadvantages:
 * Projectiles have travel time, and will only travel a set distance before detonating on their own.
 * Charging a shot decreases its velocity further, making it ill-suited for engaging distant targets.
 * -exclusive damage can limit its utility (reduced damage versus Shields and severely reduced damage against Infested and Fossilized).
 * Charging a shot consumes 1 round of ammunition every second the Primary Fire key/button is held.
