A weapon with powerful capabilities.
–In-game description

The Ancient Weapon is a weapon of alien design that can be very rarely found within the Alien Ruins. It takes up both hands when equipped. It is a medium item and cannot stored in toolbelts or medicine cabinets.

Function

When activated, the weapon will fire a medium range beam, dealing low Burn damage, high structure damage, and a massive recoil.

The recoil is strong enough allow players to "fly", once airbone.

If it is detonated, it deals massive structure damage. However, there are no methods to detonate the Ancient Weapon.

Trivia

  • Internally, the Ancient Weapon is not a weapon at all, but rather a Tool that does damage to structures instead of repairing them as a Welding Tool would. Due to this, it is essentially an upgraded version of the Plasma Cutter.
