When the fire button is held, the weapon will fire a laser beam with note particles coming out of it. The beam will inflict 
to any hit enemies.
When reloading, the user plays it like a keytar and will create a defensive radius on the ground around the user, damaging any enemy that is within the radius.

Tips
- Use it in very close ranges in order to kill somebody due to this being an electro-thrower weapon.
- Go for the weakened players for better ammunition conserving, quicker kill registering and a less complicated duel.
- One can use the damage radius when reloading as a means of defense.
- In addition, it can also be used to counter charging melee users.
- Jump while reloading since the damage radius is created around the feet of the user.
- Reload frequently, so as to deal damage on those within your personal space.
- Avoid medium and long-range areas where you will get killed easily.
- Use it to gradually weaken targets.
- Use this against a large group of players.
- The weakening attribute can be used against enemies with high damaging weapons such as sniper rifles.
Counters
- Pick off the user at long range.
- Area damage and shotguns make quick work of users.
- When an enemy holding this weapon approaches, run away and shoot it from afar.
- Due to its short range, use a long range weapon to kill this weapon user.
- If you are encountered within medium-range areas, quickly rush up to the enemy before getting damaged quickly.
- Avoid getting too close to the user when they are reloading, since the defense radius could potentially kill.
- Try to Rocket Jump away if you are caught in it's shooting radius.
