  • Aimed Shot - Before moving on your turn, add double your Proficiency Bonus to the attack roll for the first attack you make with this weapon.
  • Attractor Field Command - You activate the Survey Spike's signal to attract any active Zarizeni Mining Union Survey Drones as a Free Action after shooting a location or target. Any loose metal objects or materials weighing less than 25 lbs, within 60 feet are also pulled towards the Survey Spike. Any targets in range take 1d6 Bludgeoning damage from an attracted object if they are in a path between the survey spike and the loose object. The attractor field remains operational for 2 rounds of combat or 1 minute outside of combat.
  • Crippling Shot - You aim for the legs or other appendages of your target without your Proficiency Bonus. If your attack is successful, the target's movement is hindered and can only move half its normal movement speed until the start of your next turn.
  • Overpressured Shot: Using a Bonus Action, increase your next attack's AP rating to AP IV and add the Pinning effect without the HP requirements, but fires only one shot, dealing 1d12 + 12 damage. This doubles the range of the pinning distance to 60 feet and the projectile's effective range goes up to 180 feet and 225 feet for long range. Crit fails while using this feature immediately cause the weapon to jam. An overpressured shot will alert enemies within 90 feet.
  •   Special Properties
  • Armor Piercing V
  • Mining Equipment - Gives advantage on any checks to obtain materials from rocks.
  • Powerful Pinning - If a quarter of the target's remaining HP damage is dealt in a single attack, the target is launched in a straight line away from you up to 30 feet away and takes falling damage for every 10 feet the target was pushed back if it gets pinned to a surface. The creature must be medium or smaller for this effect to work. If no vertical surface is available, the target is only pushed up to 30 feet in a straight line away from you. If pinned to a surface, the target will be Restrained until the start of your next turn.
  • Stealthy - Firing this weapon does not alert enemies that are outside of initiative or when you attack while hidden. After attacking, roll a Stealth check versus the target's Passive Perception.
  •   Loading: Uses a Bonus Action to load a Computerized Survey Spike.   Weight: 12   Handling: 2-handed

    A piercing, longer-range high utility piece of equipment that doubles as weaponry. It launches a harpoon-like, javelin-sized survey spike via compressed air or gases. The computerized survey spike can emit a homing signal that attracts loose ferromagnetic materials or objects, and sends a command to any deployed Zarizeni Mining Union Survey Drones. The Survey Drones are spherical robots deployed by hand that roll towards the Survey Spike and activate LIDAR scanning systems and a spectrophotographic suite to identify rare deposits of materials. Survey Drones can also emit a small electric shock to ward off creatures that try to eat them, stunning them in the process.
