|A robust blade that has an edge of tiny teeth that rapidly vibrates, almost like a chainsaw. This permits it to cut through armor better than most other blades. Offers no block chance and comes in a compact, folded hilt. Must be extended in order to use. | |||

While ranged weapons can be difficult to obtain, they hold a few significant advantages. Namely, utilizing a ranged weapon means that you are out of melee range; it is safer, and you are afforded far more freedom in your positioning during combat. Ranged weapons also tend to be more debilitating than melee weapons, generally doing more damage quicker. Their main flaw lies in a limited stock of ammunition. Ballistics require bullets that match the caliber the firearm takes, as well as likely requiring a paired magazine for loading said bullets. Meanwhile, energy weapons typically run off an internal battery that can be conveniently reloaded at several rechargers around the station. Regardless, you will more likely than not have to address the matter of ammo when using a ranged weapon, one way or another. | While ranged weapons can be difficult to obtain, they hold a few significant advantages.
