Fires pulse rays and shock orbs with alternative fire. Damaging zombies will knock them back a short distance. Hitting an orb with a ray will cause a massive explosion.
Appearance
The 'Equinox' Shock Rifle resembles that of the 'ASMD Shock Rifle' from the Unreal Tournament series.
Gameplay
The 'Equinox' Shock rifle is a tier 5 gun that requires pulse ammo to fire.
Primary fire shoots a energy beam that causes small knockback on zombies.
Secondary fire releases a large slow moving shock orb capable of causing small AoE against zombie groups. Shooting the orbs with a energy beam will create an chain reactive explosion that will create a large AoE unleashing massive damage against zombie groups.
Pros
The 'Equinox' has a near perfect static accuracy, allowing the user to acquire easy headshots at any range.
Since the shock orbs are counted as projectiles, they can be greatly benefited with the Projectile Weight trinket and Cannonball skill, giving the user higher damaging orbs, whilst the orbs become slower, allowing a greater window opportunity to activate chain reactive explosions.
It is the most efficient ammo usage out of all the known pulse weapons due to its high damage counted for every shot (beam and orb), allowing the user to not consistently focus on their ammo.
Cons
The biggest drawback to the 'Equinox' is that chain reactive shots need 2 requirements in order to be activated; it requires 5 pulse ammo and the user must be 5 meters away from the orb to be chain reactive. Making it unwise to be using the weapon in tight corridor sigils.
Additionally, shock orbs have a large hitbox, meaning the user must have a enough open space to activate chain reactive explosives otherwise the orbs will collide with either the barricade or zombies.
The shock core alternate fire and shock combo from detonating the core are affected by negative damage resistance pierce, but the energy beam itself is not.
