The Auger Heavy Penetrating Rifle is a Chimeran weapon held by Chimeran Steelheads.
The Auger Heavy Penetrating Rifle fires salvos of transient radiation that will tunnel through solid matter and increase in power with each object they burrow through. Hard surfaces are unaffected, but organic tissues will obtain severe burns. The Auger does have a relatively small ammunition capacity, but the salvos ignore cover so they are all potentially lethal. The Auger's secondary fire deploys a small rectangular force barrier that is impervious to all weapon fire except fire from Augers. Enemies will suffer damage if they move through the barrier.
In Resistance Retribution, a modified version of the Auger made by the Maquis, known as the Auger WS, operates the same way and is one of three weapons that can be fired underwater.
