The Darkstar Fission Tether is a weapon sold by GrummelNet Industries featured in All 4 One. It is a terachnoid-engineered defensive weapon that releases powerful arcs of electrical energy to rip through enemies on the battlefield.[1]
It can be upgraded to the Elite Darkstar Fission Tether by purchasing an elite upgrade from a vendor.
History[]
The Darkstar Fission Tether is first available at the Rehabitation Center segment of N.E.S.T. for 15,000 bolts, and becomes available to upgrade with additional bolts upon reaching the Cove segment of Octonok Cay.
It is not upgraded with use, but its ammo can be upgraded for 10,000 bolts, and its power for 25,000 bolts. After purchasing the ammo and power upgrades, it can receive an elite upgrade for 60,000 bolts, transforming it into the Elite Darkstar Fission Tether.
Characteristics[]
When used, the weapon will automatically lock on to and damage any nearby target with arcs of electricity. Using multiple Darkstar Fission Tethers together will trigger a lethal energy chain between the weapons, similar to the Tesla Spikes.[2] Using multiple Darkstar Fission Tethers on the same enemy will create an overload attack, delivering a wide electrical shockwave and damage bonus.
The power upgrade will increase its lock on range and damage output. When upgraded to the Elite Darkstar Fission Tether, the weapon will generate an electrical shield around the user when active, protecting them from physical enemy attacks at close quarters.
Behind the Scenes[]
The Elasta-Shock, a cut weapon-like object from All 4 One shown at Gamescom 2010, works the same as the Darkstar Fission Tether. The weapon was also previously named the Darkstar Fission Rifle before release.
