System Shock 2 Hints

Laser Rapier

  • The laser rapier is a melee weapon that has a longer reach than the wrench and does more damage.  No charge is required to keep this weapon running.  If you want to invest the skills, the crystal shard is a better melee weapon.  However, if you already have (or plan to have) a high Energy Weapons skill and don't want to invest in the necessary Exotic Weapons and Research skills, the laser rapier will work well enough.

    REQUIRES: Energy Weapons 4, Agility 3
