- Fires a physical dart projectile sheathed in a Solar Ionization bolt.
- Dart acts as a miniature High-intensity Neutralizer after a short delay from impact.
- Solar Ionization Bolt can pierce through shielding.
- Dart, upon impact, has a 1 second delayed EMP Neutralizer burst directly around the location of the dart. Shutting off Electronics, including Lightsabers
- High Intensity Burst of the Neutralizer is set to a frequency to the neural pathways of sentient beings so that it "System resets" the neural system. Effectively stunning the individual.
- As a High Intensity burst, it doesn't worry about physical armor, as the armor itself, depending upon the circumstances, can be a conductor of said burst.
- Dart is resistant to the Force due to Frangawl Force powder coating.
- Each dart is single use. Meaning you cannot collect the dart and reuse it.
- Weapon only has five rounds.
- Darts can be prevented from striking the intended target by Particle shielding.
- Darts can be vaporized by Lightsaber blocking, however, this could fling molten shrapnel at the Lightsaber jockey.
- Dart is heavier than a conventional slug and thus has a parabolic arc. Requiring the user to be well within close distance to the target.
- Firearm can still be influenced by the force.
- Solar Ionization cannot melt through armor due to such a short burst/dart of the weapon instead of a concentrated beam. While wearing armor, it won't injure the victim, but unarmored opponents would get a nasty sunburn at worst.
- Firearm is single use. Meaning you ONLY have five shots until it becomes completely useless. Thus to have more than the five shots, requires an individual to own more than one.
- Cannot shut down analog/slug thrower weaponry that doesn't use electronics.
Due to an increased interaction between Mandalorians and Jedi, Tarre has teamed up with some of the best technical savants of the Mandalorian Enclave, to create a non-lethal weapon in which can be used to capture, and apprehend armored enemies, Jedi, Sith, and pretty much anything inbetween. The basis of the weapon is a single use firearm, with five shots to take down an opponent for capture, such as a bounty, or for interrogation.
The basis of the weapon is a Solar Ionization weapon to go through energy shielding, deliver the dart payload that released a delayed EMP Neutralizer burst that can shut down Electronics, Lightsabers, weaponry that utilizes electonics, and even disable the neural system of the target. Thus stunning them for a short period of time.
