The heavy charge blaster is a mechanoid-only weapon equipped on centipedes with a short warmup but lengthy cooldown time. Once fired, it devastates anyone unlucky enough to be in its way.

Like the Minigun, it is an excellent crowd control weapon, dealing heavy damage against groups of targets, but its low accuracy makes it less effective against scattered or individual targets. With 90% of the range of a minigun, the Heavy charge blaster does 50% more damage per hit with 50% better Armor penetration. A fearsome weapon!

This weapon is unobtainable in normal play, though it can be spawned in by the Debug actions menu. Like all unobtainable weapons, after being equipped and dropped, it disappears. It is provided here for comparisons sake.
