Vaadwaur Cluster Torpedo

The  functions similary to the Breen Transphasic Cluster Torpedo, launching a single fragile torpedo that drops a series of automatic mines. When a hostile target gets close, the mines will activate and chase the target before detonating with a heavy kinetic damage blast. Shields drastically reduce the effects of kinetic damage.

The  is a special reward gained from in the Delta Quadrant story arc. Initial play rewards a  torpedo while the replay rewards a  version. The level of the deployed Tricobalt mines scale with the player's level.

Mechanics
The 20% shield penetration bonus works by reducing the innate penetration resistance of shields. The penetration resistance is 90% for most shields.

There is a minimum "arming distance" of 1.5km for the torpedo to release the mines in a successful attack.

Each of these mines have a chance to create a subspace rift similar to the heavy tricobalt device and standard tricobalt mines.

This weapon is not enhanced by the Boff abiliites that affect most torpedoes and mines: Dispersal Pattern Alpha, Dispersal Pattern Beta, Torpedo: High Yield, and Torpedo: Spread do nothing. However, this weapon also does not start a cooldown on other torpedoes when fired.

Note: This torpedo is only usable at level 50+ even if obtained before. Also, versions cannot be upgraded from any point(pick it up at lvl 50+ for Mk XII).
