📋 About This Mod
The high-tech particle rifle now looks even more formidable and mysterious. It is available as craftable weapon skins and texture replacers.
The main file contains the three craftable weapon skins:
- Cobra - Blue glow
- Cobra - Orange glow
The skins can be changed at a weapon workbench.
These three versions are also available as texture replacers, which can be found under the "Optional Files" section. Use one of these files if you want to change the appearance of all Inflictor rifles in the game. Only one replacer can be active at a time. You can use the replacer together with the craftable skin version.
For the replacer versions, the mod changes the "materials" of the texture, which other weapon skin mods may not overwrite. This could be desirable, where you can use my scaled texture with new colours from another weapon skin mod. If not, you should use the craftable skin version instead.
INSTALLATION:
Download the main file via a mod manager.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Decent community traction (191 endorsements, 6.7k downloads) for a niche cosmetic mod.
- Gives the Va'ruun Inflictor a fresh look without touching gameplay balance.
- Optional texture replacers mean you can pick your preferred style.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects one weapon, so if you don't use the Inflictor, this is useless.
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind on the actual look.
- Compatibility risk with other mods that alter the Inflictor's textures or meshes.
For Starfield players who main the Va'ruun Inflictor and want to personalize its appearance. If you're after gameplay tweaks or broader weapon variety, skip this—it's purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid conflicts.
- Check if you have other Inflictor mods installed—this might overwrite or be overwritten.
- Since it's craftable, you'll need to visit a workbench to apply the skins in-game.
