Description
The Arc Thrower is the Accord Engineer's signature weapon. Its primary fire is a short range, accurate beam, which deals damage on impact to enemies and repairs allied deployables. The longer a target is focused by the beam, the greater the damage done per tick and the more the charge bar fills. The charge bar drains while the player is not firing, and drains faster if the player fires but does not hit a target.

Its secondary fire is aiming down sights for improved accuracy.
