Survivor:Experimental Plasma Charger

Shoots large ball of plasma, that bounces on terrain |
| — Weapon description |
The Experimental Plasma Charger (EPC) is one of the weapons available to the Driller in DRG Survivor. It is unlocked by reaching Rank 27 on the Driller.
Notable Quirks
The EPC has the projectile tag, so Fire Rate upgrades nominally apply to it. It does, however, have a clip size of 1, making such upgrades ineffective.
Additionally, while the trails on the ground from the "Drippin Balls" Unstable Overclock do apply status effects, the "Hot Plasma" or "Cold Plasma" Balanced Overclocks must have been taken in order for Experimental Plasma Charger to receive potency upgrades. Without either of these Overclocks, there is little value in trying to build it for status damage.
However, Drippin Balls is extremely strong because the damage dealt by the trails is based off of the damage from the shots themselves.
