Plasma caster (Fallout 76)

The Winchester P94 plasma caster is a weapon in the Fallout 76 add-on Wastelanders.

Characteristics
The plasma caster is a powerful energy weapon similar in fire rate and range to the ballistic Gatling gun. The plasma caster deals considerably more damage than other energy weapons but suffers from a low magazine size and fire rate. It can be further upgraded to drain enemy fusion cores with each hit. When crafted, plasma casters use legendary modules, becoming legendary weapons with randomly determined effects.

As with other weapons only available after the main questline of Wastelanders, plasma casters cannot be traded, dropped, or sold to vendors.

Crafting
Plasma casters are always crafted at the maximum level available to the player character. The weapon will be a one-star, two-star, or three-star legendary weapon with randomly determined effects.

Weapon modifications
Weapon mods can only be crafted if the corresponding plan is known. Mod plans for the plasma caster are bought from Regs for gold bullion and cannot be learned from scrapping plasma casters.

Location

 * The plasma caster can be crafted at a weapons workbench if the corresponding plan is known. The plan can be bought from Regs for 750 gold bullion after the completion of the main questline for the Settlers or Raiders.
 * Once the plan is known, plasma casters may be found as legendary weapons, earned either as quest rewards or found on legendary enemies.
