Bamboozler 14 Mk I

The Bamboozler 14 Mk I is a main weapon in the SS undefined.

The Bamboozler 14 Mk I has an extremely high charge rate, the highest of the chargers, allowing shots to be fired off in quick succession, and has decent mobility. However, while it is the quickest charger, it is also the weakest; it cannot splat an enemy in one hit even when fully charged, lacks the ability to store a charge, its shots cannot pierce enemies, and its range is on the lower side of the class. However, unlike other chargers, the range remains constant regardless of its charge.
