Stat Modifiers
The EMP shell is a type of mortar shell that upon exploding, deals 50 EMP damage in a 8.5-tile radius, instantly downing shields and stunning mechanoids, turrets and other mortars for 25 seconds.
Crafting
It is made using 20 steel and 1 component at a machining table.
Usage
It is a niche weapon that is extremely good at whatever it does- downing shields and stunning mechanoids. Because of this, it finds really good value even though it deals no physical damage whatsoever.
Due to its large blast radius, only a few shells are usually required for each barrage to hit all enemies. Given that, as well as its combat effectiveness, it is a very cost-efficient choice, despite requiring components to make.
