Not exact replica of the Chitauri Sceptre...Scepter?...from the Marvel universe. Includes several melee versions and a ranged version. I made this for myself, but I wanted to share. Yes, it is somewhat overpowered, however, it was overpowered in the Marvel universe also. I think the perks, materials, and quests required to build the weapons balances it out a bit...maybe?
Melee sceptres are sword type and vibro type. Both have the option to be one-handed or two-handed. All can be modded with bleed, shock damage, and/or stun.
Ranged sceptre is a pistol type gun that can be modded with one of many projectiles. Ammo capacity depends on the attached projectile type. Projectiles are mostly explosive (cryo, fireball, pulse, plasma, pax, frenzy, zeta wave, lorenzo's artifact, mirv, proximity, and telekinesis), two laser types (tesla and plasma laser), and four torch types (chain lightning, cryo stream, flamer, and plasma fllamer). Only explosive types, except mirv and proximity, can be upgraded with a targeting gem.
Weapons, ammo**, misc item, and new materials* can all be crafted at the Chemistry Station under the category "ALIEN SCEPTRE REPLICA."
This mod requires: Automatron, Far Harbor, and Nuka World.
How to create the Alien Sceptre:
1. Create the Alien Sceptre Sword 1H.
[Perks required: Blacksmith rank 2, Science rank 1]

[Perks required: Blacksmith rank 2, Science rank 2]

*** WARNING: Any upgraded mods currently on each sceptre will be destroyed.
Optional weapon conversion recipes will only appear with the respective weapon on hand at the Chemistry Station. Conversion recipes will appear above the brass recipes. If downgrading a weapon, new materials must be obtained to upgrade it again.
* New material: Brass - obtained from tokens, assuming they are made of brass.
[Perk required: None]
Melt down 10 Subway Tokens, 10 Book Return Tokens, or 10 Nuka-Cade Tokens for one portion of brass.
** New ammo: Alien Sceptre Dynamo - used by the Alien Sceptre
[Perks required: Science rank 3 and Nuclear Physicist rank 1]
Convert 100 of each Cryo Cell, Gamma Round, Flamer Fuel, Fusion Cell, and Plasma Cartridge into 100 Dynamos.

Weapon mod details:
Melee
Ranged
> Explosive Projectiles (crystal mod)
> Non-explosive Projectiles (crystal mod)
> Clip size can be upgraded only for explosive projectiles:
> Grip Upgrade
> Blades Upgrade
Known Issues:
>> clipping/visual issues
- unlike the vanilla weapons, the sceptre's handle is thick and non-uniform which will cause some hand clipping
- the handle is very long for the one-handed sword type sceptre so it will clip through your body when swinging a certain way in 3rd person view
- in first person view part of the handle will poke up from the screen when side swinging with the two-handed sword type sceptre
- walking with the ranged sceptre drawn will make the handle clip awkwardly into your body
>> modding the ranged sceptre
- attaching an explosive mod and immediately switching back to a non-explosive mod will cause the crafting menu to change
Solution: simply back out of the crafting menus or the workbench and reactivate the workbench.
- targeting mods are greyed out even with all required perks/materials; usually happens when you detach a mod required in crafting another mod for the same weapon
Solution: back out of the workbench and reactivate the workbench to continue modding.
