Trivia

 * This item was added in Update 10.
 * This item is built in the Clan Dojo.
 * The tendrils at the front end of the Synapse move, suggesting the weapon is a living organism.
 * They retract and enclose the muzzle upon holstering the rifle.
 * A synapse is a nervous system structure that acts as a 'gate' between neurons, allowing electrical signals to be passed between nerve cells. Synapses help form the electrical pathways of the nervous system.
 * Thus, Synapse's name is probably derived from this fact, as it is a biochemical electrical weapon.
 * Seems to be made from the Electric Crawler as it has similar lighting attacks.
