DESCRIPTION
Suppressor attachments were usually an extension screwed onto the end of a muzzle of a slugthrower, adding a thick cylinder of metal that would silence the weapon's fire. Though these attachments did not fully silence the loud shots of a weapon, it did reduce them considerably so that all that could be heard was no more than a light 'THWAP' sound. This also suppressed any light that would flash from the end of the muzzle allowing for more stealthy take downs without worrying about giving away one's position.Several different kinds of silencers and flash suppressors were made for the various types of slugthrowing weapons. However, they all functioned the same essentially, reducing both sound and sight of the user. These attachments could only function on slugthrowers, however, and would tend to melt away into slag when being used on blaster weapons. Not only that, but they did nothing to suppress the sound of blaster fire nor the light of the laser bolt being flung through the air.
Today, silencers and suppressors have been mass produced and utilized by the Arcane Hunter's Association. If a member were to catch a non-Hunter wielding one of these attachments, the outcome might not be so great for the perpetrator.
LEGALITY
Legal throughout the Outer Rim, but will still draw unwanted scrutiny from both civilians and officials. Heavily illegal throughout the rest of the galaxy. However, one would need to be able to pull up the proper credentials for usage of a suppressor regardless of what planet the user is on.INTENT
To create an effective attachment for slugthrowing weapons. They haven't gotten a lot of love on site due to the amount of super cool blasters, so I wanted to give them a neat exclusive that has a nice niche function.RESTRICTIONS
These can only be used on slugthrowers. Light blasters are still incapable of using these if they fire blaster bolts instead of projectiles. This is also an Arcane Hunter's Association exclusive.
