Maximum Power Output:
1 per hour or fraction thereof. Highly advanced handguns are sometimes built with a Light Scope and lightly pressing the trigger produces the beam, thus reducing the energy cost to negligible levels. This is an upgrade which costs an additional 120gp when the gun is made and requires the Build Computational Devices feat.
This Gadget is mounted on any firearm, bow, or crossbow which has an open hardpoint. The Light Scope uses low-powered lasers to paint your target with a red dot. This grants the weapon an effect similar to the Brilliant Energy ability except instead of reducing all armor, it only reduces it by 2. More advanced Light Scopes have a higher degree of accuracy, use a higher grade laser, and sometimes can detect range to the target, thus adjusting its pitch. An Information Age Light Scope lets you shoot your enemy with an armor reduction of 4 and a Contact Age Light Scope grants an armor reduction of 6. These are counted as purchased upgrades for this item.
