Tease weapons explanation?

[Bobonga]

Hello, can someone explain tease weapons for me?

1. Is the dmg affected by aim/libido/sexiness? Basically, what is the dmg calculation.
2. Are they affected by perks like rapid fire, overcharge etc.?
3. Does shoot first/second shot work with them?
4. Are they worth using over normal teases?
5. Other important information?
6. Is there a "best" tease weapon? Iirc the royal shard bow was busted AF. That was years ago though.
7. I want to do a ranged/tease smuggler soon. Yay or nay for tease weapons?

Are you asking about Tease weapons specifically, or Lust (Tease/Drug/Psionic) weapons in general?

1. I don't know for sure, but my testing suggests Tease weapons do benefit from the wielder's Sexiness. They do benefit from Physique/Aim like other weapons, so keeping that up is important.
2. Depends on the weapon. Overcharge applies to all Energy Weapons, Tease or not. Rapid Fire is the only way to fire the Slut Rays (+Bimbolium Emitter) more than once/round. In fact, it's the only way to benefit from Heavy Slut Ray's Bonus Hit Rate.
3. Depends on the weapon. Yes: Royal Shard Bow, No: Slut Rays, Bimbolium Emitter.
4. Often. See answer 6.
5. Bimbo Siegwulfe is extremely useful in the early and midgame. I've beaten the Nyrean Princess with Tease with her (which I didn't know was possible). You'll likely want to replace her with the Light Jetpack eventually. Are you planning on taking Ice Cold? That changes some advice.
6. Royal Shard Bow still is, against anything not significantly resistant to Drug. With maxed Aim, Heavy Slut Ray seems to inflict Stun about every other shot.
7. Yay, but you'll want a means of doing regular damage, too. Personally, I took Quick Draw and used Royal Shard Bow/(Bimbolium Emitter/Heavy Slut Ray)/Shock Bow depending on enemy.

So, there better than I thought. Thank you.
