Designed as a civilian response to Jedi and Sith using Lightsabers to Deflect their attacks, the Sonic Pistol fires compressed bolts of pure sound at its target. Though slightly less powerful than standard weapons such as blasters and Pulse-Wave weapons, the Sonic Pistol is particularly effective against Jedi and Sith because the weapon's Sonic bolts bends around a Lightsaber, striking the target despite the intervention of the Lightsaber's energy blade.
Like all weapons that deal Sonic damage, a Sonic Pistol's attacks cannot be negated using the Deflect Talent (or any Talents with Deflect as a prerequisite). A Sonic Pistol requires a Power Pack. After 100 shots, the Power Pack must be recharged.
