“Without the sun's rays to charge this weapon's capaciters, this gun can't light a match. However, in full daylight, the experimental photo-electric cells that power the Scorcher allow it to turn almost anything into a crispy critter.”— In-game description, Fallout 2
The Solar Scorcher is a unique energy weapon in Fallout 2.
Background
Laser Pistol
Characteristics
A major benefit of this weapon is that it utilizes free and unlimited ammunition derived from sunlight. Further, there is no AP cost associated with reloading this weapon. However, the weapon can only be recharged while exposed to sunlight or bright light. Being in a dark environment (e.g. outside during nighttime or in a cave) will prevent this weapon from recharging.
Notes
- The Solar Scorcher was originally going to be included at the Environmental Protection Agency, but the location was cut. Killap's Restoration patch returns it to the EPA, and it will not be found in the Guardian of Forever.
- The word "capacitor" is spelled wrong in the weapon's description.
