Starfield Wiki

The Novalight is a weapon in Starfield.

Characteristics[]

The Novalight is a particle beam pistol manufactured by Arboron. It is one of the first particle beam weapons you can acquire. Though weaker then the Va'ruun Starshard, it is much more common and has decent damage for a pistol comparably to the Regulator in damage. The Novalight has a digital ammo counter on the back of the gun just below the back sights and the top half of the gun will slide forward when it is reloaded. As with all particle weapons they have chance to spawn a particle distortion orb to appear which generally spawns on the target that was shot and this will damage anyone nearby including the target.
