The KARMA-1 is a Legendary sniper rifle only available through Printing. It features a charge-up before shooting, and is capable of killing any prospector in one hit on a head shot.
Attachments
The KARMA-1 is not able to have any Attachments installed.
Description
While heavy and requiring a charge-up to fire, a direct hit from the KARMA-1 will cripple if not outright kill any target, and the raw kinetic power will damage anything near the impact area.
Lore
The Korolev Advanced Recursive Magnetic Artillery, first prototype, is a miniaturization of the sort of weaponry more commonly found on warships, offered exclusively to the Prospectors for early testing. While no longer powerful enough to take down a spacecraft, it's more than enough to handle the threats of Fortuna III.
Prototype Variant
More accurately called the KARMA-XT, prototypes like this were built on Fortuna III and tested extensively in the field, mostly against harmless wildlife. Features a less powerful battery than the KARMA-1 release version.
The Prototype variant of the KARMA-1 has the following changed statistics:
- Changed rarity from
Legendary to 
Epic - Decreased the direct damage by 10 to a total of 65
Damage - Decreased penetration by 8 to a total of 25
Penetration - Decreased sell value to 27291
K-Marks and 273 
Reputation
The Prototype version of the KARMA-1 can only be found as loot on Fortuna III, which means it can't be crafted or bought in Prospect Station.
