Hard Points: 1
Rarity: 9
Price: 1,600
Type: Energy Weapon

Qualities: Limited Ammo 1
Features:
May be loaded with 1 dose of synthetic neuroparalytic or any other
poison. Whenever wielder successfully attacks a target, even if no
damage is dealt, the target suffers the effects of the poison
looking at the book the 1600 is for the launcher (and I think) 1 dart. After you fire your 1 dart, how much do reloads cost?
Asking here because bounty hunters are the typical users of said weapons (even according to the fluff text).
Enter the unknown has a model 77 air rifle, it runs out of ammo on a despair (as normal), and puts the cost of a *clip* of smarttranq darts (page 40) at 500 credits (they require a average resilience check, failure = 5 strain + 2 strain per threat, on despair repeat the check next round with +1 difficulty, rinse repeat with subsequent despairs)
I'm going with the saberdarts (only requires a successful attack not dealing damage) with Raquor Venom (because they're a lot more effective, requires a daunting resilience check or staggered for 2 rounds, 2 points of strain per threat, and immobilized on a despair) launched from a Security s-5 heavy blaster pistol page 43 of
keeping the peace which has the text
:
"...it's under barrel dart launcher can be configured to launch solid
projectiles of various sorts; one particularly common choice is a
grappling hook attached to a cable..."
note that it has medium range (at least this part of the weapon has identical stats to the grapnel harpoon launcher in no disintegrations which has medium range)
would 350 per dart +150 Raquor Venom dose = 500 credits per shot compared to 500 credits per clip of (the less effective) smarttranq darts be reasonable?
In this case the 1100 for the model 77 + 500 per 1 clip = 1600 credits is the same cost as a saberdart launcher which comes with 1 saber dart (both are long range, one uses ranged light, one uses ranged heavy)
