Alien disintegrator

The alien disintegrator is an energy weapon in the Fallout 3 add-on Mothership Zeta.

Characteristics
The distintegrator has an impressive magazine capacity for a rifle, capable of holding 100 alien power modules. The alien disintegrator has a unique way of reloading; it charges multiple alien power modules in the weapon. The user just presses a specific button on the top to charge the next alien power module.

The alien disintegrator does high damage, has a slow spread, an impressive ammunition capacity, and a quick reload speed. Although it has good accuracy, its accuracy is not as good as that of the alien atomizer. However, it remains reliable for middle and short-range combat. A disintegrator can fire 518 bolts before breaking.

Locations

Behind the scenes

Bugs

 * Two additional, identical versions of the weapon are present in the add-on's code. Examined in the G.E.C.K., they differ only by their IDs, and . They are otherwise identical to normal alien disintegrators and are even affected by the Xenotech Expert perk, but cannot be used to repair normal alien disintegrators or its variant. Though not placed anywhere in the add-on, these weapons have been known to show up on occasion for reasons unknown.
