Plasma Bow
Ranged & Melee

Purpose

The Plasma Bow is a silent and versatile weapon, making it the perfect choice for navigating heavily guarded areas where stealth is paramount.

As a highly adaptable ranged weapon, the Plasma Bow can be used strategically to interact with environmental switches or trigger hazards, adding a layer of tactical depth to its utility.

Powered by the Plasma Consumable System, the bow features tiered perk slots and an expandable capacity, which can be upgraded through the Skill Tree System, allowing for personalized enhancements and increased effectiveness.

Seamlessly integrated with the universal Stealth Take Down System, the Plasma Bow enables silent eliminations, ensuring undetected progression through high-risk zones.

Additionally, it integrates with the universal Melee System, offering the ability to stagger enemies with a swift, precise soft attack, perfect for creating opportunities in close-quarters combat.
