Using a barrage of rapid-fire plasma rockets, Gauss' signature weapon lays down a path of destruction. Reloads are faster while sprinting, even more so in Gauss' hands. For safety, rockets arm after traveling a safe distance.

The Acceltra, a rapid-fire micro-missile launcher. The smooth polycarbonate barrels still carry a vague stench of ozone.

Some think Gauss was a blunt instrument, all speed, with as much versatility as a cannonball. But the Acceltra implies more. It implies surging in, inviting the enemy to consider the blade, then rebounding to let missiles answer their confusion.

Acceltra is GaussIcon272 Gauss's signature fully automatic rocket launcher that fires micro-missiles in rapid succession with high critical chance, critical multiplier, and fire rate, and a large 3-meter explosion radius. To provide safety for its user, the rockets arm after traveling 7 meters in midair. Uniquely, this weapon reloads faster while sprinting, and reloads even faster when wielded by Gauss.

Characteristics

This weapon deals primarily Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage.

Advantages:

  • High Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. and Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage – effective against armor and shields.
  • Tied with Battacor Battacor for the highest critical chance of all fully automatic rifles.
  • Very high critical multiplier.
  • High fire rate.
  • High accuracy.
  • Rockets have a guaranteed Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. proc.
  • Rockets explode in a 3 meter radius after impacting a surface or enemy.
    • Rockets have a minimum arming distance of 7 meters (unaffected by projectile flight speed), mitigating self-damage.
  • Reloads ? seconds faster while sprinting (? when used by GaussIcon272 Gauss).
  • Mod TT 20px Heavy Caliber's accuracy penalty is minimal on this weapon.
  • Innate Script error: The function "Pol" does not exist. polarity.

Disadvantages:

  • Low Script error: The function "Proc" does not exist. damage – less effective against health.
  • Very low status chance.
  • Explosions can cause self-damage.
    • Minimum travel length of 7 meters before being explosive should prevent accidental self-damage unless rapidly moving towards the rocket's impact area before it explodes.
  • Very inefficient ammo economy; requires just 2 reloads to fully deplete all ammo reserves.
  • Cannot use the Mod TT 20px Firestorm mod.

Notes

  • When used by GaussIcon272 Gauss, the faster reload from sprinting is ?.
  • The Acceltra's rockets have a minimum arming distance of 7 meters, meaning that they will not explode if they make contact with objects or enemies within that range, and thus making the Acceltra safe to use in close quarters combat.

Tips

Trivia

  • The mechanics of both the Acceltra and the Akarius are similar to Gyrojet firearms, which were developed in the 1960s and also fired small rockets that armed themselves as they traveled out of the gun. In real life, accuracy and reliability issues meant that the Gyrojets never entered mass production.
