It was not entirely inaccurate to characterize the luminar crystal blaster as a short-ranged version of the Instrument of Vengeance.
However, it was a mistake to assume that it behaved exactly like the legendary luminar crystal rifle with a shortened stock and much shorter barrel.
Aside from the predictable absence of resonating materials and components designed to enhance the long-ranged precision of the energy weapon, the scale of the overall weapon was much greater.
Ves' current phasewater cultivation allowed him to become three times taller than a typical mech.
