Spectra

"While its intended design is for deep space construction, the concentrated laser beam of the Spectra is highly effective against organic and synthetic enemies."

- In-Game Description

The Spectra is a Corpus pistol unlockable through Energy Lab Research in the dojo. Released in Update 9, it appears to be a weaponised handheld welding laser. It is like a sidearm version of the Flux Rifle, with similar charactersitics.

Characteristics
Advantages:
 * Ignores armour (?)
 * 100% accuracy (although the beam seems to "wobble" for a bit to start off with, then settles down to perfect accuracy)

Disadvantages:
 * No polarity slots
 * Low damage (8 per shot, 80 per second)
 * Small clip size
 * Limited range (may be shorter than the Flux Rifle)
 * Very ammo inefficient
 * Only requires 21 seconds of firing (excluding reloads) before you're out of ammo

Acquisition
Note: Requires Dera to be researched first.
