Gammacor

Held-beam secondary with an Incarnon attack profile

Released Nov 27, 2014

Gammacor is a held-beam pistol whose normal attack deals listed Magnetic damage. It also has separate Incarnon attack entries: an Impact projectile and a Cold radial attack. Consider it when you want continuous beam handling or its distinct Incarnon profile; its description also notes mineral vaporization as a supported use.

Gammacor GUIDE

Understand Gammacor

Useful when…

  • Use the normal held beam for its listed hitscan Magnetic attack.
  • Consider the Incarnon entries separately: the listed Impact projectile and Cold radial attack have different attack types and damage.
  • Use it for mineral vaporization as described.

What does the normal beam do?

The normal attack is a held, hitscan beam listed at 12 attacks per second, with 16 Magnetic damage, 8% critical chance, a 1.8× critical multiplier, and 20% status chance. It has a 60-round magazine and a 1.4-second reload. The description says the weapon was designed to vaporize minerals for content analysis and was also found effective against enemies. This supports both mining-related use and combat use without implying special mining mechanics beyond the stated purpose.

How are Incarnon attacks listed?

The Incarnon Form is listed as an Impact projectile with 80 damage, 14% critical chance, and 22% status chance. A separate Incarnon Form Radial Attack lists 660 Cold damage, with 30% reduction by 5 metres. These are distinct attack entries and should not be added to the normal beam’s damage.

What alternatives emphasize other handling?

Atomos is described as a condensed, super-heated plasma beam, so it offers another beam-style option with a heat theme. Lex and Lex Prime are described as powerful, accurate pistols with low fire rate and magazine capacity, suited to long range. Those descriptions help distinguish beam handling from deliberate single shots; they do not establish which performs better overall.

Limitations and tradeoffs

  • Normal attack critical chance is 8%, and sustained use consumes its 60-round magazine.
  • Incarnon entries use different attack types and damage profiles; their activation conditions are not stated here.
  • The radial attack has a listed 5-metre range with falloff.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Do not add Incarnon projectile or radial damage to the normal beam’s 16 Magnetic damage.
  • Do not infer Incarnon activation requirements from the attack listing.
