The Tech Room data would lead you to believe that the weapon was similar to the Prometheus cannon. In actuality, the weapon does extremely poorly against both shields AND hulls. If for some reason you wish to wield this weapon, take along another cannon.}}

This weapon is literally useless, much like the GTW ML-16 (after shields), the GTW Prometheus R, or the Training Laser used by the GTDr Amazon. Unlike its descendant the GTW Lamprey which at least has some shield damage, the Leech does almost nothing other then energy leeching, which doesn't do squat in single player and does little in multiplayer.


The Tech Room data would lead you to believe that the weapon was similar to the Prometheus cannon. In actuality, the weapon does extremely poorly against both shields AND hulls. If for some reason you wish to wield this weapon, take along another cannon.
