- Recoil: High
- Has 2 settings:
Normal - Fires a continuous beam of plasma - Heavy - Fires a heavy beam of plasma. Increases the damage output but burns out power cell in 2 shots
Strengths:
- Beamer, not Beemer: Utilizing fusioncutter technology, Horizon's Hammer is capable of firing a continuous beam of plasma that is capable of piercing most metals and materials.
- Heat Resistance: The materials used for the barrel of the weapon are capable of resisting heat to incredible temperatures. When using the weapon, Azula feels no heat coming from the intense plasma being fired.
- Not A Sniper, But Not A Pistol: Although fusioncutters are known to be very short ranged, several focusing crystals within Horizon's Hammer greatly augments the beam being fired, allowing it to reach great ranges.
- Heavy: Horizon's Hammer is a large and heavy weapon. It'll take some serious strength to not only lift it, but keep it on target with whomstever you are aiming at.
- Need A Max Ammo!: The power cells used for this weapon are rather bulky as it requires a large amount of power to be used. This adds to the bulkiness of the weapon as a whole. Carrying these power cells could lead to having to omit ammo for other weapons.
- Reloading! Cover me!: Replacing the power cell for this weapon takes at least 15 seconds, if you've become accustomed to using it. The used up power cell has to be ejected and the fresh cell must be inserted, clipped in and needs a moment to charge up.This is much longer than most other weapons reload time.
As time passes by while in the Golden Company, Azula has begun to tinker a bit more and more with technology. Her latest project, which she has come to title the Horizon's Hammer, is probably her most innovative yet. She has taken the existing technology of a fusioncutter and increased it's potential exponentially. This new form of weapon is as destructive as it is impressive.
Azula had taken the components from a fusioncutter that produces the high energy plasma beam used to cut through metals in engineering and construction and put it in a larger hull. This required several fusioncutters in order to improve the intensity of the beam so that it is capable of firing a strong enough beam to be used in combat. At first, the beam was capable of at least leaving the barrel, but it's range was still mediocre. The addition of 3 focusing crystals within the barrel of the weapon. With the addition of these crystals, the beam was capable of reaching long ranges without losing the intensity of the beam.
Early trials of Horizon's Hammer has proven it to be an effective weapon when used in the right hands. Those hands being Azula Merr's.
