Ion Excitator

:"Ion Fuser" redirects here.
The is the starter weapon of the Physicist.
It can be upgraded through Physicist's 7th upgrade. 
==Usage==
Fires a single energy ball that causes an energy blast upon contact. The energy blast does half the damage of the energy ball and cannot crit.
It does not need charging like other Railgun weapons.
This weapon fires in cycles of five bullets. Within a cycle, there is a 0.3-second interval between each bullet. Once the 5th bullet is fired, there is a 0.7-second interval before the next cycle.
Movement speed is increased by 10% when the attack button is held down.
===Upgrade===
This weapon can be upgraded into Ion Fuser.
The upgraded form deals 1 more damage. Additionally, the 5th bullet of each cycle is replaced with a bigger, slower-moving one that costs 3 energy instead of 1. Once destroyed upon contact with enemies or obstacles, the bullet leaves an electromagnetic pool behind. This pool:
*Deals 3 damage to enemies inside it. This damage occurs four times, immediately upon spawning the pool, then once every 0.33 seconds.
**The EM pool lasts for 1.7 seconds. It only damages enemies during the first second.
**Its damage has a chance to inflict Electrify.
**Unlike Physicist's 1st skill's EM Field, this one is affected by Laser Buff and cannot destroy projectiles.
**It is not affected by .
==Notable Buff Effects==
: - This Buff affects this weapon as intended. The following Buffs interact with in a specific way:
* - Increases critical chance by 10.
* - Increases the projectile and EM pool damage by 1. Increases the blast radius.
* - Does not affect the special bullet of Ion Fuser. The regular bullet benefits normally.
==Trivia==
*This weapon was added in Update 5.5.0, along with Physicist.
*Before Update 5.5.2, Ion Fuser's rarity was instead of .
**This was most likely a bug, since other starter weapons' upgraded forms are Green/Uncommon.
