The Tesla Gun is is a weapon item exclusive to Nikola Tesla and several secret explorers who are based on him.
Combat[]
The Tesla Gun provides a single die with a 2/6 roll chance of success. Unlike other guns, it combos with both blue and green dice. It is also the only weapon other than dynamite that can self-damage your characters. On the other hand, its combos offer a lot of flexibility, including a multi target attack option.
Its self-damage is applied to all characters who contribute at least one die to the attack (if a character contributes two die, they will take only 1 damage). If your explorer is mounted and contributes a die, the damage will be applied to their mount.
Combination | Damage | Shield | Requirements | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Quick Discharge | 2 | 0 | Self Damage: 1* | |
Stable Beam | 3 | 0 | Self Damage: 1, Multi Attack | |
Defensive Beam | 4 | 2 | Self Damage: 1 | |
Alternating Beam | 7 | 0 | Self Damage: 1 |
* Because Self Damage is applied only to characters who contribute dice to the attack, Quick Discharge will not actually harm any of your characters.
