Verified Offworld Laser Technologies (VOLT) proudly announces the release of their latest innovation: the Quartz SMG.
The Quartz delivers a devastating continuous energy beam, boasting some of the highest DPS available for an FPS weapon. However, operators should be aware that sustained fire rapidly leads to overheating. Much like the Parallax Rifle, the Quartz's performance is directly impacted by environmental temperatures — colder environments allow for longer bursts, while hotter climates will lead to overheating much quicker.
The Quartz SMG can be found at Hathor Outposts and Hathor space stations
