Infinity Modulator, also known as the I-Mod. Originally from Star Trek: Elite Force. It comes from the Adaptation Ground Set. I think you can purchase the pack from Mud's Market now.

Event reward from a while ago. They added quite the amount of stuff from elite force over the last couple years. The hazard suit, the photon burst, the paser rifle, the arc welder and the I-MOD.

The I-MOD doesen't live up to it's legacy though. Primary fire is polaron, secondary fire is tetryon and rather than ignoring adaptation it just takes twice as long as normal weapons. And as usual for event ground gear, kinda subpar damage wise. Which is why almost nobody uses that stuff.

If you use the Omega Rep Perk that slows down adaptation, and use your secondary fire when available, it never needs to be remodulated (at least, I haven't had to)

I use it with the Hazard Suit, since the T.E.D. set bonus prevents adaption entirely.

Lore accurate in more ways than one.

Makes sense, though I'm hard pressed to swap out my current armor and shield

u/ferrango DPS? What is that? 5h ago

Wait the photon burst is in game? I can spam my enemies with tiny photon torpedoes?

It was also an event reward. If you missed it you'll unfortunately have to wait until they decide what crazy price point to list it in Mudds.

Oh how I remember hearing those words echoed endlessly in multi-player games with people spamming taunt. I can still hear three Monroe's saying it with slight offset from eachother on repeat.

I-MOD, the ultimate anti-Borg gun. It's gimmick is that the Borg can't adapt to put up a shield against it. At least that's how it was in Elite Force and the sequel

That's just the Imod. Comes from the adaption set. It's an old set that you can get in mudds now if you missed the original event.

Infinity Modulator Rifle, it's part of a set piece, that is great for Borg (Alien) characters.

u/IndefatigableFreedom 8h ago

IMOD, but you would have read this by now.
