Essentially, I'm thinking of a lighter guass variant that needs levi drops to build. Same stats as the mk3, just lighter. It'll make guass a really powerful weapon in combat, but hard to get, so it can't just be used willy-nilly.

I think 650kg is good. What do ya think?

+1 Gauss Cannon MkIV

-1 We dont need more magical hitting weapon. Remove the autoaim on this version and i +1 it.

+1 regardless. Just as a regular gauss.

up energy cost to cover for lost passive weapon cooling system? Also, I'd rather it gain another 100kg to the proposed weight. 650kg sounds like paper for a gauss cannon.

Gauss is magic? What can't ya kill me with it then :P

+1 to a zero autoaim Gauss cannon. Call it the Gauss Cannon HV. Zero auto aim, but much faster velocity..

@We all float: So, basically an energy based railgun?

-1 for needing Levi drops.

-1 to removing AA
-1 to need levi drops
-1 upping the energy
-1 to masshacked gauss

I'm sure someone can come up with a balanced recipe to manufacture.

if you are manufacturing the gauss MKlV, why should it require level 12 combat to equip?
