N-ZAP '83

"The N-ZAP ‘83 is an N-ZAP '85 that Sheldon modified to faithfully recreate a classic limited-edition piece. It’s so faithful, in fact, that players think the buttons might stick a bit sometimes… But that’s not a bug – it’s a feature, right? The Point Sensor and Kraken make for a set that is handy for cutting off your opponents’ advance."

The N-ZAP '83 is a Shooter Main Weapon that was released as a free DLC on June 8th, 2016, as part of Sheldon's Picks volume 2.

Description
"An N-ZAP '85 remodeled by Sheldon. The design is strangely nostalgic. The original weapon was better suited to a support role, but this version lets you jump right into the fray with a Kraken."
