The Xeno-Zapper is a short-range melee weapon that shocks enemies, dealing five damage.

A zapper is given to the pioneer upon exiting the drop-pod and more can be crafted at the  Equipment Workshop. When attacking, it is jabbed forwards like a cattle prod, producing an electrical shock upon making contact with an enemy.

A double will trigger two zap attacks in quick succession.
