Alien blaster (Fallout 76)

The alien blaster is a ranged weapon .
==Characteristics==
The alien blaster is a powerful energy pistol. The weapon is made primarily of a steel-like metal, with orange and red furniture resembling plastic, and highlights of pulsing blue energy. On the side is a blue ringed cap, which flips open so ammo may be inserted. Its design eschews a traditional barrel or front sight. A scope may be affixed to the top.
It was impractical for regular use due to the rarity of alien blaster rounds before the Invaders from Beyond update. At the cost of damage output and ammo capacity, a fusion mag can convert the weapon to shoot the more common fusion cells.
