If you see a Skedar coming at you, the chances are it's carrying one of these. A large magazine and a bladed barrel make the pistol a formidable handgun, but the killer blow comes from the secondary function - charge the shot up for extra power at the cost of a few rounds of ammo.

The Mauler is a powerful Skedar pistol with a large magazine.

Overview

The secondary function charges up to 5 shots and uses a sixth for firing. This shot deals a lot more damage, doing about the same as an entire magazine fired normally, but using this mode too often can cause you to run out of ammo quickly and is excessive against weak and unshielded enemies, though this mode is actually very handy against the Skedar themselves. Almost all Skedar carry these. Used in the levels Carrington Institute: Defense, Crash Site: Confrontation, Attack Ship: Covert Assault, Skedar Ruins. Even though the mauler is an alien weapon, it can use earth-manufactured pistol ammunition even when it clearly shouldn't.

Trivia

  • Due to its large magazine size compared to other pistols, dual-wielding this weapon and obtaining maximum ammunition with it can cause other weapons such as the Phoenix to have above-maximum reserve ammunition, causing the reserve ammunition bar to glitch and appear "empty".
