- Relatively long charge time - At the temperature and intensity of the plasma being shot from the cannon most weapons would crumble into melted heaps, the Antisoch iron prevents this.
- Slow fire - It takes time for the plasma to reach the desired temperature and thus there's a delay between trigger pull and discharge. It isn't all that viable in short bursts.
- Conductor - Due to Antisoch iron being prevalent in the creation and maintenance of the weapon, it conducts electricity more readily than other metals.
The early for of the Kreshqur or "Fire death" was as a mining tool. Back then it would burn hot enough to reduce rock to slag while leaving the highly prized Qer iron unscathed. Regor saw the use of such a tool as a weapon early on and began developing it into the killing machine it is now. It was never meant to be used as a selective firing weapon and instead is intended for clearing out trenches or rapidly destroying most buildings. It works very much like a flamethrower that is able to melt buildings with a concentrated beam.
