Advantages and disadvantages
- Penetrate is a weapon perk which reduces your target's DT to 1/3 of its normal value.
Plasma rifle in turn based is often used with Fast Shot builds, however, for real time, it is used with critical shot builds.
Its damage rolls from 20-300(needs confirmation) per critical, most effective on Metal Armor Mark II or below.
On the other hand, against Tesla Armor, Combat Armor, Combat Armor Mark II or Brotherhood Armor, it isn't as effective but large criticals are still possible.
