The pulse shotgun appears as a technologically advanced sawed-off shotgun connected to a glowing energy core.  This futuristic weapon fires shockwaves of concussive force which strike as powerful bludgeoning damage.  It uses [[Energy Cell (3.5e Equipment)|energy cells]] as ammunition and has a stock of 20 charges before it needs to be reloaded.

On a critical hit with a pulse shotgun, the opponent much make a [[Reflex]] save DC 10 + 1/2 HD + [[Dexterity]], or fall prone.

Those with the appropriate [[SRD:Exotic Weapon Proficiency|Exotic Weapon Proficiency]] can choose to fire the concussive blast in a 15 foot cone area effect as a full-attack action.  It deals 4d6 damage plus an additional +1d6 for every point of BAB they possess, and it uses up a corresponding number of charges equal to the number of attacks they normally would have on a full attack (for example, BAB +16 and beyond would consume 4 attacks).  Opponents get a [[Reflex]] save for half, DC 10 + 1/2 BAB + [[Dexterity]].

You reload a pulse shotgun by ejecting the battery and placing a new one.  Loading a pulse shotgun is a full-round action that provokes attacks of opportunity.  Normally, operating a pulse shotgun requires two hands.  However, you can shoot, but not load, a pulse shotgun with one hand at a –4 penalty on attack rolls.  You can shoot a pulse shotgun with each hand, but you take a penalty on attack rolls as if attacking with two one-handed weapons.  This penalty is cumulative with the penalty for one-handed firing.
