Arc-Welder

Description

This weapon is an electric weapon which will be attracted to metal structures. The Arc-Welder was originally a piece of mining equipment used by the miners on Mars but has been turned into a weapon for use against the Earth Defense Force.


Developed by a group of underground Red Faction researchers and engineers, the Arc Welder was designed for close-quarters combat. By super-charging a standard arc welder, this weapons-grade welder can electrocute soft targets and disable vehicles and other electrical equipment. The electrical charge emitted from the weapon can travel along metallic surfaces and arc between surfaces and people, and is effective against multiple targets at the same time.
