Description
Standard issue for TriOptimum Security officers, the 2100 is the preferred offensive tool in confined spaces. While its stock fire mode delivers high damage, the 2100's laser sight attachment utilizes a smart sensor to seek out and exploit a target's weak point, but the calibration damage is lost if the operator loses the target.

Magnum 2100 is a weapon in System Shock (Remake).

Overview

The Magnum 2100 can be first found on the Medical level after getting 0 % security level. There's a hidden door in the wall on the way to the laser bridges right by the cyborg mantis. It is also located on the Maintenance Deck and is reached by crossing a narrow pathway by crouching. The weapon deals high damage to enemies and is suitable for close quarter areas as well as against armored enemies. It uses high-density osmium rounds. As expected, ammunition for the weapon is scarce, making it important to use the weapon wisely. It can be compared to conventional revolver as well as a Desert Eagle gun from many other games.

Weapon Mods

The weapon has two mods: a capacity and a damage mod; the capacity mod increases the magazine size to 12 from 8. The damage mod adds a barrel attachment and a laser sight toggleable via the mode select/ammo change button. This and many other weapons with ammo system can be reloaded in inventory menu effectively saving reload animation time. Same can be done for ammo type.

Aside from the flat damage and armor penetration bonus from the damage mod, it's laser sight adds a "lock-on" functionality, that increases damage on the enemy the laser points at (the weapon indicates a lock-on on it's screen and with a sound). This lock can be lost very easily even from the weapon's own recoil and requires time to acquire so it's advisable to consider whether the situation warrants it's use (eg.: low ammo, open space with cover to lean out from) or if it's better to just shoot the weapon without it. The laser uses one energy point when it locks and can lock on almost anything that the HUD highlights with brackets, so the Hacker should turn it off when not in combat to conserve energy (small drainage can quickly add up).
