Phahd Scaffold

The Phahd Scaffold (or community-denoted as "x4x") is a scaffold used in Amp construction, that allows the weapon to perform an alternate secondary fire function (default ). When fired, the Phahd fires an energy glaive that automatically homes in and bends towards its target. Allowing multiple targets to be hit, up to 4 times.
The blueprint is sold by the Quills for at Instrument rank or higher. It is also a possible rank-up reward upon advancing to Instrument rank with the Quills.
