partly for the lulz, partly because i want to see this in game, and partly to free up mental space

so thoughts?

So this is an attachment, yes?

First, I can respect having an idea that you just need to get out of your head and into the world, as well as "for the lulz" stuff that isn't really intended to be properly playable.

So. . . well, at first glance I was thinking this was meant to be for a gun and sword in accord type character, but I see it's for Ranged (Heavy) weapons of significant size, so something more like that lightsaber cannon from the comics I keep hearing about? Seems a good way to represent that, though I'd add that, on a Despair, both weapons are destroyed beyond repair, since I recall hearing it was basically a one-shot (haven't read the comic that appeared in). I'd also have the weapon use the lightsaber's damage, crit, etc.

just to humor the idea some more

the destruction of both seems more like a tripple or at least double despair effect

and all the qualities of the lightsaber save range are being used, including crit

Well, in game terms, a "quality" is distinct from other weapon or armor statistics. Just in the interests of clarity.

ah right so qualities are more sunder and breach. good to know

A bad idea. Maybe you could talk to you GM about allowing these things at your table though?

Just for the fun of it... I'd say one despair destroys the rifle part, dealing rifles base damage to the user, two destroys lightsaber hilt also, dealing lightsabers damage and qualities to the user, three destroys the crystal as well, dealing lightsaber's damage with qualities as blast damage to everything in medium range.

I know you're just playing here but the game actually has a pretty good system for creating gear that isn't game breaking in Special Modifications and for Lightsabers in Endless Vigil. It's not exhaustive by any means but it is a good guide on what will work within the scope of the game.

ok just for the fun of it:

to resemble that Lightsaber-Blaster-hybrid of the comics:

Cost: 100.000,- credits
HP required: 3
Restricted with maximum rarity

Effect:

As an Action you may combine a Lightsaber with this attachment with a blasterweapon with this attachment resulting in a lightsaber-blaster-hybrid weapon.

The This weapons gains damage, crit, breach, burn, stun, vicious as the Lightsabersaber crystal (any hilt attachment are not included in the damage/ weapontalnet output)
The Hybrid-Weapon has a range of short.
The Hybrid-Weapon gains the inaccurate 2 weapon quality
any further attachments of the former blaster weapon will be active (except for any range increasing attachments)

In case of a despair, the whole weapon (both parts) male function and get damaged by one step inflicting an automaticaly crit to the user (adding the weapons vicious rating)

Modifikation:
2x reduce the inaccurate quality by 1
2x reduce the damage of the weapon by 1 and also reduce any self inflicted auto crit (despair result) by 10

This attachment as to be bought extra for both weapons it is meant for like the "Paired Mod."
for the Mods to work properbly they must be added to both attachments.

There are of course no known types of fabrications... every one is a unique selfbuild.

now have fun killing your self with this against a nemesis with adversary 3 ^^
