Revision as of 16:15, 21 May 2015

Tannis' Laser of Enlightment is a unique laser manufactured by Maliwan added in The Claptastic Voyage. It is one of two rewards for Temple of Boom.

Special Weapon Effects

Burn away the impurities of ignorance. – Always fire element. Fires a cone of flames in front of the barrel. Increased damage and high ignite chance.

Usage & Description

This weapon's damage and high ignite chance are offset by very low range - 1/3 that of other continuous-fire laser weapons like Miss Moxxi's Vibra-Pulse or Ol' Rosie. Its best usage would be in caves or buildings, where it could be used on multiple targets with less chance of their evading its reach.

The special weapon text appears to be a reference to the Advaita Vedanta sub-school of Hindu philosophy, and more specifically to the Atma Bodha. The translation of this work by the guru Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi contained the following excerpt (full text here):
