Perfect
This article has information that is missing or not up to par.
Reason: Needs more specific info about how similar the ray effect is to Flaming/Freezing Hands. For example, how does the heat/cold damage compare to those mutations?

This pistol fires a ray of heat in the direction it is aimed and a ray of cold in the opposite direction. These projectiles resemble Flaming Hands and Freezing Hands. It can only be fired once every two rounds — a wielder with 100 quickness may only fire every other turn, while wielders with higher quickness may need to wait multiple turns before firing again.

The context menu option flip may be used to reverse the direction of the beams. This will change the color of the pistol's name and icon to blue (cold beam forward) or red (heat beam forward).

Tips

This section is opinion-based. Your mileage may vary.
  • On average, pair of cold beams fired Akimbo are more effective than a freeze ray at cooling the environment but slightly less effective at cooling the targeted object.
