The effectiveness of the medium-range hyper molecular disruptor astonished many people among the audience.
While it was not entirely unheard of for cutting-edge weapon systems to gain the capacity to circumvent the protection of energy shields, they were far from common.
These exotic and prototypical weapon systems were usually attached to experimental and restricted first-class multipurpose mechs.
The weapons had to be made of incredibly rare and powerful materials, and often had to be sustained by powerful first-class power reactors.
Perhaps it may be possible for a small troop of elite first-class mechs to be equipped with these expensive boondoggles, but it was unthinkable to bestow them to any second-class mechs.
The Dustweaver completely changed the equation!
Even though the mech was a quasi-first-class mech that was unaffordable to most second-class customers, its price had to be within the same range as the Elite Fey Fianna.
