Type III Phaser
From Star Trek: Gamma One
 | The Type III Phaser is a rifle-like weapon. The Type III phaser rifles has 16 power settings, fully-autonomous recharge capability, multiple-target acquisition, and gyrostabilization. While being more complicated and perhaps more likely to require maintenance than weapons like the Cardassian Phaser or the Klingon Disruptor, the multiple settings and options turn the Type III rifle into not just a weapon, but a tool. |
Variations
 | Type IIIc Variant: The IIIc variant was first designed for combating the Borg and their adaptive shielding. Recently the rifle has been adopted for Rapid Response and high threat missions, providing a more useful weapon for Starfleet officers. |
Beam Settings
The following beam settings are available:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Standard Beam | This is the default setting. |
| Pulse | The pulse mode expends more energy to produce a more damaging attack. |
| Continuous Beam | When set to continuous beam the phaser will emit a continuous beam of energy rather than a single shot beam. This does no more damage than the standard beam. |
| Wide Beam | The wide beam setting has a range of 10 meters and is up to 8 meters wide. It can also only be used on settings 1 through 6. |
