MechanoidGunToxicNeedle

The toxic needle gun is an mechanoid-only ranged weapon added by the Biotech DLC. It is the main armament of the apocriton.

This weapon cannot be independently obtained in normal play. It is provided here for comparisons sake.

Acquisition

Toxic needle guns spawn on all apocritons. However, it is not possible to obtain it directly in normal play. Pawns carrying it will not drop it on death, downing, or complete loss of manipulation like other weapons. It can be spawned in by the Debug actions menu but, like all unobtainable weapons, will disappear after being dropped.

Summary

For each point of damage dealt with the toxic bullets, the victim receives 0.65% toxic buildup. Note that this scales inversely with both toxic resistance and body size.
