Mod:DUST Survival Simulator/Experimental Cryo-Gun

The Experimental Cryo-Gun Launcher is a unique, two handed energy weapon featured in Fallout: DUST.

Characteristics
Designed within the confines of the Lucky 38 laboratories, the Experimental Cryo-Gun is a one-of-a-kind weapon allowing its user to wield the frigidness of the last ice age against their foes.

While the outright damage of the ECG is certainly lackluster, it has a very unique effect: it freezes its target for 12 seconds, a fairly significant amount of time. This makes the Experimental Cryo-Gun exceptionally effective against even the strongest of enemies, allowing its wielder to whittle down the health of their foe or keep them perpetually frozen with repeated shots.

The major flaws of the cryo gun seem to be its lack of capacity, the scarcity and weight of its ammunition, and its whopping power consumption. The weapon only holds 5 MF cells worth of power, and consumes all of that energy in a single shot.

Combined with the complete lack of duplicates, requiring the Jury Rigging perk or Weapon Repair Kits for repairing the weapon, and low item health, making consistent use of the ECG seems to be rather expensive.
