System Shock 2 Hints
Annelid Launcher
Like the viral proliferator, the annelid launcher has human/annelid hybrid and pure annelid modes. The human mode can also do damage to you if you're caught in the blast. This weapon, however, is much stronger than the viral proliferator.
Given its high skill requirements and its late availability (on the last deck of the Rickenbacker), this is really only suited for attacking the annelids in the Body of the Many. On the other hand, it does do a good job there. If you don't mind having to collect all the worms and using your cyber modules on the upgrades, this isn't a bad weapon. You can still do without it, though, and if you find you need to improve other skills before you find this weapon, you won't be missing all that much.
