It gains 4 abilities, and a unique primo

Toss Grenade
Toss a grenade at your target, with a limited range. Select grenade type via rclick, of which there are currently 3 : Resin, which spreads sticky resin, Acid, which spreads acid, light acid gas, and deals acid damage to those nearby. along with flinging living humans a short distance, and Incendiary, which spreads pryogen fire. Stores 5, with one regenerating every 10 seconds. 200 Plasma to throw, 2s cooldown between throws, 2 second fuse on the grenades

Place Acid/Gas Mine (Two Abilities)
Place a acid or gas mine, which detonate when destroyed or stepped on by a human. Deals AOE damage, and gas mines spread extra damage. Stores 5/2, regenerating one every 90/120 seconds, with a 5 second cooldown between places. Must be on weeds

Acid Rocket (Primordial)
Launch a acid rocket, similar to sadar. After a .4s warmup, takes 30% of your health and plasma, and fires a projectile which deals 90 damage with 10 AP to everything nearby, spreading acid spatter that lasts for 5 seconds, and deals an additional 30 damage to the direct hit target. Has 1.3x damage on vehicles

It looses 2 slash damage, for a total of 18, from 20. Other stats remain unchanged.

Yeahhhh Conceptually not sold on this. Seems like it'll sit in bull tier of being absurdly broken or just bad. At least Sizzler seems like an okay concept. This just seems wack.

0,0,0,4 explosive

Also why would you add an explosion at all? They aren't really balanced to be on benos period. Just make it spread out shrapnel in a 360 area.

Mimir modules both mark 1 and 2 will not protect against xadars.
