The Synchronic Proton Distortion Prototype Assault Rifle is a unique weapon developed by Lieutenant Kalapo/B'Eler specifically for combating Devidians.

Description

A prototype weapon originally developed at Memory Alpha to damage cloaked opponents, the Synchronic Proton Distortion Beam failed Starfleet field testing at Deep Space K-7 and the project was abandoned. It was later successfully tested as a hand weapon against non-cloaked opponents by crew from the U.S.S. DeWitt, but never entered production as a fleet weapon. Only a few prototypes of this weapon still exist, and this one has been modified with a secondary effect that is extremely effective against foes who are at a subspace variance from our reality.

Obtaining

The Synchronic Proton Distortion Prototype Assault Rifle is a mission reward from the Devidian Front mission “Spin the Wheel”.

This item is unique, so players can only have one per character.

Modifiers

The Synchronic Proton Distortion Prototype Assault Rifle can be exclusively obtained as a Rare item.

Gear Upgrade

The Synchronic Proton Distortion Prototype Assault Rifle can be upgraded through the Gear Upgrade System, and requires Tech Upgrade Kits from the Ground Gear School, or Universal Tech Upgrades.

Notes

• The U.S.S. DeWitt was destroyed by the Klingons in “Second Star to the Right, Straight on 'til Morning”, which presumably explains how the KDF obtained the prototype.
• This weapon appears to be a reference to Ghostbusters. It is similar in appearance to the proton weapons from the film, the secondary fire is a proton beam with a similar "stream" effect, and it is provided specifically for use against the ghost-like Devidians.
• When introduced, this was the only ground weapon with two different types of energy damage: Proton and Antiproton. Since the release of Season Seven: New Romulus there are now multiple ground weapons with multiple energy damage types. As of Season Nine, this remains the only Proton/Antiproton weapon; however.
• Unlike most other ground weapons, this weapon is not visible on the players' back when not in use. Also, despite being called a "rifle," the player wields it like an Assault Minigun.
