Reprisal

This mod adds in a new weapon, a solarium blade enhanced with Ancient technology. It's a 99% accurate (give or take a point) recreation of the old upgrade sprite the Solus Katana had early in the 1.2 update's development, as shown in the gif here[starbounder.org]. Frankly I can understand why it was cast aside in favor of what the Katana ended up with, as this sprite hardly resembles a katana. I happen to like its design though, but I wanted to have it as its own weapon rather than a sprite replacement for the upgraded Katana's sprite. As a result I gave it a unique name as well as an alt ability, one based on the beam attack Asra Nox has with her katana.

Fittingly for its name, this weapon is obtained as a guaranteed drop from the Swansong boss. As a result it's also a tier 7 weapon.

Alternatively you can just spawn it in via its id if you're lazy: reprisal
