- Internal Modifier
- Complex internals allow the Pathblaster to somewhat alter the properties of the bolt it's firing. Such modifications include
- Scatter: Cause the bolt to burst into micro-refractions upon exiting the barrel (Grapeshot)
- Overload: Flood the bolt with power and cause it to explode upon contact (High explosive)
- Ionize: Charge the bolt with ionizing energy to take out droids and electronics (Ion)
- Complex internals allow the Pathblaster to somewhat alter the properties of the bolt it's firing. Such modifications include
- Stun Setting
- The Pathblaster can be set to stun to incapacitate enemies rather than kill them, changes blaster bolts to standard blue stun rings
- Spun Up
- The Micro Beam Spool compacts turbolaser technology to "spin" blaster bolts to increase their damage and range. As such the Pathblaster hits harder than most competitors in its class
- Versatile
- The PaE-400's multiple settings and good recoil make it an excellent all-rounder choice for those purchasing pistol grade weaponry
- A Touch Unwieldy
- Compared to other pistols, the Pathblaster is bigger and heavier due to it's internal mechanics
- Fire Rate
- The cost of the Pathblasters excellent damage and range is fire rate, spinning the beams increases the time between follow-up shots
The standard issue for Treatech security, the PaE-400 Pathblaster provides a heavy punch in a relatively cheap package. While it is heavier and larger than the average blaster, it's ability to adapt to most engagement ranges and types allow it to even function as a primary, let alone a sidearm. With a suite of customization options, the Pathblaster is both friendly to entry consumers and veterans alike
