The Eye of Ra is a Heavy weapon introduced in the 14.1.0 update.

Description

The Eye of Ra is a powerful heavy weapon with the burning effect. It deals high damage, has fast mobility and a slow fire rate.

Appearance

It has a similar appearance to most of the weapons from the Exoskeleton Set (although this is Egyptian themed). The player wears the Eye of Ra on their back, and two golden arches stretch behind the player's head, with a large gem embedded in the middle. It has two golden arms, with gems that spin and direct energy to the main gem. The player holds a scroll with Egyptian hieroglyphics on it, and it acts as the weapon's ammo.

Performance

The Eye of Ra is mounted onto the players back, and the scroll is held by both of the player's hands. When charging the weapon, the two arms with the gems on them spin and direct the energy to the big gem on the top of the weapon's middle arc. When releasing the charge, the two arms with the gems spin the other way. While it's charging, this weapon emits a sound similar to a choir of angels singing. the player is given two extra magazines. The projectile the weapon fires has area damage, despite not being listed in the Armory. The damage dealt by the Burning.png attribute depends on the charge time, and it takes 15 out of the 90 capacity for a full charge.

When reloading, the player closes the scroll, drops it then grabs another closed scroll and opens it. The arms with the gems contract and bend backwards, the big gem on the middle arc spins while reloading. Once the player grabs the new scroll, the arms bend back to its original position and the middle arc spins again. It has no delay mechanics.

Strategy

Tips

  • This is one of few heavy weapons that have 85 mobility, which gives its users a speed advantage against the other low mobility heavy weapons like the Big Buddy (PG3D) or Storm of all seas.
  • Take cover when charging, or else you may be killed while doing so.
  • Use it in hallways or close range maps.
  • Use this like you would with the Charge Cannon, as this is essentially an upgraded form of it.
  • Be aware when charging in close quarters, as you can easily deal self-damage.

Counters

  • Pick off its user(s) from a long range with a Sniper or a long range weapon.
  • Stay away from close combat and tight corridors, as you may be an easy target.
  • Dodge bullets by jumping, as it is hard to hit a player who is jumping with a charge shot weapon.
  • Its projectiles are noticeable in long range, allowing you time allowance to dodge them.
  • Be aware when the player charges their shot, as the projectile will release upon their death. If you want to attack its users while they are charging, it is best to do it from behind.
  • Use a weapon with the DamageReflection.png attribute, as the user can severely injure themselves upon dealing hits.
