An energy-based weapon known as an electrostatic gun saw utilization by the reconstituted Sith Empire. A sizable electrostatic weapon was positioned on the summit of the People's Tower, situated in New Adasta on the planet Ziost; it was intended to serve as a final defense measure against significant civic rebellions. During the Invasion of Ziost, Galactic Republic agent Theron Shan altered the weapon to operate in a non-fatal manner, which made it possible for him, along with his comrades, to liberate the inhabitants of New Adasta from the dominion of Vitiate.
