Strengths:
- The heat is too much - a pulse cannon inflicted extreme pain on its victim as the extreme heat of the bolt burned through it's victim and possibly their armour.
- I fire quick - Due to the above average speed of the bolts, and the rate at which they could be discharged from a weapon, pulse cannons were often used to take out groups of stationary or fast moving targets.

- DION Fibre - is resistant to ion and EMP attacks.
Weaknesses:
- Please don't hit me with your hammer - has no protection against kinetic damage.
- Recoiling - the recoil is very high possibly throwing the guns accuracy out unless it is mounted.

DESCRIPTION
Tom created an auction to try and get his new workshop more out into the galaxy. He had a number of people bid and Thraxis was one of them. Tom spoke with Thraxis for a fair while about what would be best for a gun before Thraxis settled on a weapon that was an assult rifle with whatever Tom wanted added a few of the newer guns that mirdirmorut had rediscovered to it. After having finished it Tom told thraxis about all the compents that were within it and asked Thraxis for a name. The man settled on calling it The Dan Effect as a memorium to an old friend he may never see again.
The parts tom added were that it was able to super heat plasma while also having a lightening chain effect of bouncing to other droids. It turned out to be rather effect as a weapon with a very high fire rate and stopping power due to the burns the plasma gives. He added some DION Fibre to remove the idea of anyone being able to EMP the guns. However the downsides to these including the addition of the DION Fibre was that is would be more easily broken by physical damage. It had quite the kickback often making it hard to use without some form of support. Even with Duravlex the gun could get to extreme heats making it difficult to hold or even fire if it overheated. Tom gave Thraxis a warning as he walked away with the guns "They may be excellent guns, but even then it may be too hot to handle."
