Gameplay[]
"This is kinda like the Polaris equivalent to the Raven Rocket, except better (of course!). They fire quickly and pack a very nice punch (for their price). They have a very nice range, too, so you could use these if you don't feel like (or you ran out of) torpedoes. Four Wraith Cannons would definitely be overkill; one will do you quite nicely. These are excellent on the fighter-type ships (Manta, Zephyr, Striker) for that extra bit of punch." ― EVula Survival Guide
It has a large magazine capable of storing 600 shots and occupies a remarkably small amount of space. The weapon has a high rate of fire and inflicts quite a bit of damage every shot.
This is an excellent mid-range weapon. Pilots without access to either Heavy Blaster Turrets or Fusion Pulse Batteries should equip these just in case long and/or short range combat isn’t working.
It is possible in the Rebel string to purchase up to 1,800 Wraithii by purchasing all three versions of Wraithii, which can then be fired from either the Federation, Rebel, or Polaris Wraith Cannons.
Outfit[]
Wraith Cannon on a Striker
"Wraithii are tiny capsules of polarons contained in a mar-graviton field. A Wraith Cannon fires these capsules via simple biomechanics, and the capsules burst on impact, releasing a powerful kinetic force. These guns are mounted as standard on the Dragon, and can be retrofitted to most ships on the market. The Nil'kemorya keep a careful eye on these weapons, however, and only the most favored of outsiders are ever allowed to buy them."
The Wraith Cannon is a weapon that uses Wraithii as ammunition.
The Polaris version is available for purchase after completing parts of the Polaris Storyline or Rebellion Storyline. You can acquire them on Rebel I or Polaris worlds.
Wraithii and a Striker
"The polarons for Wraithii are harvested by deep-space mining scoops run by the Tre'pira. These polarons are then shipped to P'aedt facilities for encapsulation in the mar-graviton field that will hold them until they impact at a speed of greater than 20 kilometers an hour. Needless to say, the final packets are handled with kid gloves. It is a testament to the Tre'pira and the P'aedt that no accidents with Wraithii have ever occurred."
A maxxed out load of Polaris Wraithii will set you back 600k.
Stolen Wraith Cannon
"Wraithii are tiny capsules of polarons contained in a mar-graviton field. A Wraith Cannon fires these capsules via simple biomechanics, and the capsules burst on impact, releasing a powerful kinetic force. These guns are mounted as standard on the Dragon, a Polaris vessel, but can be retrofitted to most ships on the market. Ever since this technology was stolen from the Polaris in a daring raid, Federation scientists, while capable of duplicating the technology, have been having problems understanding it..."
The GLi-Tech version is available for purchase after completing parts of the GLi-Tech side missions. They're available on GLi-Tech-nia and Rebel II.
All the variants of Wraith Cannon have identical stats.
Stolen Wraithii
"The polarons for Wraithii are harvested by deep-space mining scoops manned usually by hard-core prospectors. These polarons are then shipped to military installations for encapsulation in the mar-graviton field (a type of field that Federation scientists are still struggling to understand) that will hold them until they impact at a speed of greater than 20 kilometers an hour. Needless to say, the final packets are handled with kid gloves. It is a testament to the safety protocols put in place by the Bureau that only a few minor accidents have ever occurred since they stole the plans for this weapon from the Polaris..."
A maxxed out load of GLi-Tech Wraithii will set you back 1.5M.
FWC Wraith Cannon on a Striker
"Wraithii are tiny capsules of polarons contained in a mar-graviton field. A Wraith Cannon fires these capsules via simple biomechanics, and the capsules burst on impact, releasing a powerful kinetic force. These guns are mounted as standard on the Dragon, and can be retrofitted to most ships on the market. And now that they have been modified to allow them to shoot while the parent ship is cloaked, they are even more effective. The Nil'kemorya keep a careful eye on these weapons, however, and only the most favored of outsiders are ever allowed to buy them."
Successful completion of Return to Ver'a Se initiates a series of cröns which eventually leads to the availability of the Tunneling Organ, Multi-Jump Organ, and Fire-while-cloaked weapons.
All the variants of Wraith Cannon have identical stats, but this one has the fire while cloaked flag.
FWC Wraithii and a Striker
"The polarons for Wraithii are harvested by deep-space mining scoops run by the Tre'pira. These polarons are then shipped to P'aedt facilities for encapsulation in the mar-graviton field that will hold them until they impact at a speed of greater than 20 kilometers an hour. Needless to say, the final packets are handled with kid gloves. It is a testament to the Tre'pira and the P'aedt that no accidents with Wraithii have ever occurred."
A maxxed out load of fire whilst cloaked Wraithii will set you back 315k.
Wraith Cannon for Rebel use
"Wraithii are tiny capsules of polarons contained in a mar-graviton field. A Wraith Cannon fires these capsules via simple biomechanics, and the capsules burst on impact, releasing a powerful kinetic force. These guns are mounted as standard on the Dragon, and can be retrofitted to most ships on the market. Only in recent times have the Polaris even allowed this item, which they consider to be low-tech, to be used by the Rebellion, and even then there were stringent controls placed upon them."
All the variants of Wraith Cannon have identical stats. The Rebel version is available on Rebel I and II, Misfire and Honor.
Wraithii for Rebel use
"The polarons for Wraithii are harvested by deep-space mining scoops run by the Polaris worker caste. These polarons are then shipped to P'aedt facilities for encapsulation in the mar-graviton field that will hold them until they impact at a speed of greater than 20 kilometers an hour. Needless to say, the final packets are handled with kid gloves. It is a testament to the capabilities of the Polaris that no accidents have ever occurred since they began shipping these weapons to the Rebellion."
A maxxed out load of Rebel Wraithii will set you back 1.5M.
