The weapon fires an [[Compression blast|unreflectable]] [[projectile]] beam that consumes no [[ammunition]] and is capable of piercing through multiple targets in a straight line, similar to the [[Righteous Bison]]. Though this weapon does not use the traditional ammunition reserve used for most weapons, it still must be reloaded. This is done by pumping a slide on the right side of the weapon. The beam deals [[damage]] to any enemies that are touching it every 45 milliseconds and can hit the same target repeatedly. Shots from the Pomson 6000 can interfere with the signature abilities of [[Medic]]s and [[Spy|Spies]]; if struck, a Medic will lose 10% of his [[ÜberCharge]], while a Spy will lose 20% of his [[Cloak]] (Cloak is drained after damage is dealt, so [[Dead Ringer]] Spies can still feign death to a Pomson shot). The shots' multi-hit ability does not apply for this draining; each shot will drain its target once regardless of how many times it hits. In addition, the shot can also light [[Huntsman]] arrows on [[fire]].

The '''Pomson 6000''' is a [[Steam Workshop|community-created]] [[Weapons#engieprimary|primary weapon]] for the [[Engineer]]. It is a retro-futuristic ray gun with many team-colored portions.
  
−
Although not listed in its stats, the Pomson 6000 suffers an 80% damage penalty to Engineer [[Buildings]], similar to the [[Righteous Bison]]. However, the energy blasts from this weapon are still able to penetrate buildings and deal damage to whatever other players or buildings might be behind them.
+
The weapon fires, with a short delay, a projectile beam that deals damage and interferes with the signature abilities of [[Medic]]s and [[Spy|Spies]]. This projectile cannot be [[Compression blast|reflected]] or [[Short Circuit|destroyed]], and is fired slightly under the crosshair. Hitting a Medic subtracts 10% from his [[ÜberCharge]] meter if he is not actively using it, while hitting a Spy subtracts 20% from his [[cloak]] meter even if he is cloaked or [[disguise]]d. These values are maximums; the amount drained begins to fall off starting at a medium range of 512 [[Hammer unit]]s, with no drain at all at 1536 Hammer units (three times the distance). Drainage is applied after damage is dealt, so killing a Medic with full ÜberCharge counts as such, and Spies can successfully use the [[Dead Ringer]] on Pomson shots. Drainage victims hear a [[Media:Drg pomson drain 01.wav|distinctive sound]] to alert them of the loss.
  
−
Enemies killed by the Pomson 6000 suffer a distinctive death by vaporization: they turn black, hover in mid-air while performing a specific disintegration animation surrounded by team-colored [[particles]], and then disappear into ashes.
+
The Pomson 6000 does not require ammo, though it remains necessary to reload it after four shots. Its shots also deal only 20% damage to enemy [[buildings]], a feature shared across the game's other laser weapons.

The Pomson 6000 was later [http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=6523 contributed] to the [[Steam Workshop]], at [[Valve]]'s request.

Enemies killed by the Pomson 6000 suffer a distinctive death by vaporization: they turn black, hover in mid-air while surrounded by team-colored [[Particle effects|particles]], and then disappear into ashes while a loud, distinct vaporization sound plays. Like [[backstab]]s and [[headshot]]s, there is a 25% chance of opponents performing a specific disintegration animation if killed in this way. This vaporization effect is shared among the [[energy weapons]].

“
Blasting out rapid pulses of high amplitude, cross spectrum radiation has never been so convenient!
— Pomson 6000 publicity blurb
 ”

The Pomson 6000 is a community-created primary weapon for the Engineer. It is a retro-futuristic ray gun with many team-colored portions.

The weapon fires, with a short delay, a projectile beam that deals damage and interferes with the signature abilities of Medics and Spies. This projectile cannot be reflected or destroyed, and is fired slightly under the crosshair. Hitting a Medic subtracts 10% from his ÜberCharge meter if he is not actively using it, while hitting a Spy subtracts 20% from his cloak meter even if he is cloaked or disguised. These values are maximums; the amount drained begins to fall off starting at a medium range of 512 Hammer units, with no drain at all at 1536 Hammer units (three times the distance). Drainage is applied after damage is dealt, so killing a Medic with full ÜberCharge counts as such, and Spies can successfully use the Dead Ringer on Pomson shots. Drainage victims hear a distinctive sound to alert them of the loss.

The Pomson 6000 does not require ammo, though it remains necessary to reload it after four shots. Its shots also deal only 20% damage to enemy buildings, a feature shared across the game's other laser weapons.

Enemies killed by the Pomson 6000 suffer a distinctive death by vaporization: they turn black, hover in mid-air while surrounded by team-colored particles, and then disappear into ashes while a loud, distinct vaporization sound plays. Like backstabs and headshots, there is a 25% chance of opponents performing a specific disintegration animation if killed in this way. This vaporization effect is shared among the energy weapons.

The Pomson 6000 was later contributed to the Steam Workshop, at Valve's request.
