Plasma Caster (Fallout: New Vegas)

The plasma caster is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
This Winchester-manufactured model P94 industrial-grade futuristic arc-welder can also be used to melt foes from a distance. You can attach a magnetic accelerator to it, essentially making it a turbo plasma rifle, a powerful energy weapon featured in Fallout and Fallout 2

Locations
The Plasma Caster can be found within the Silver Rush energy weapons shop which is found in Freeside. It can be obtained for free if the player picks up the weapon which is on display and puts it in the bathroom located in the rear of the store. Once the door is shut you can steal the Plasma Caster without any loss of karma and the guards in the store will not turn hostile towards you. This same trick can be used on all weapons and ammunition which are on display in the store.

Appearances
The plasma caster appears in Fallout: New Vegas.

Bugs

 * The weapon fails to fire a projectile properly when used in third-person view.


 * The plasma caster found at the table in The Silver Rush might change value/condition during their quest (approx. from max. condition to around 15% condition).


 * Due to a bug the Plasma Caster can be duplicated if it's removed from your inventory and place into a storage item, the duplication will give you a Plasma Caster with 100% condition and can be repeated.
