Lancer

The Lancer was a semi-fast blaster, that shot multiple energy bolts, that harmed enemies at any time. It was a great choose of weapon when surrounded by close-range enemies, and it easily killed Megacorp Chickenbots. It could be upgraded to the heavy-lancer, although if an upgrade was bought, it could upgrade to the Mega heavy-lancer

Appearance
It had the basic pistol-blaster mod, fitted with orange-energy micro-organisms, that had tubes connecting to the battery packlet at the back of the gun, into the energy converter, that then was motified to fit into the blaster tub, which ended to the lancer, that shot out the multi-fire energy bolts. It's main frame is colored grey, and black. In the energy tubes, tubs, converter, it is fitted with O.E.M.O (or omo, which stands for orange-energy micro-organisms).

Upgrades
If the player used the Lancer against all enemies up to and including the first boss on Oozla, it upgraded to the Heavy Lancer after that boss has been defeated.

It could also be bought a second upgrade, for the mega heavy lancer.

Trivia

 * The name 'Lancer' also comes from a name of a car modelled by Mitsubishi Motors.
 * The Lancer acts very much like the gun in Deadlocked.
 * Rather interestingly, if you don't evolve Lancer to Heavy Lancer by the time you've beaten the bosses on Siberus and Snivelak, Ratchet is still seen using Heavy Lancer in the cutscenes. While this is certainly a plot hole, it also proves that Lancer should be upgraded to Heavy Lancer by the time you reach Siberus or Snivelak.
