This is the most powerful of the energy cell variants. It increases the damage output of weapons by 25% and has a -5 Damage Threshold effect on enemies (standard energy cells give -2 to DT), but degrades weapons 50% faster than normal and only has a 25% chance to recover a drained energy cell (the normal recovery rate is 35%). This ammunition is more powerful than standard energy cells.

The bulk design also means a significantly reduced chance of recovering a drained energy cell (only 20% compared to the standard 35%). The reduced charge results in only 85% of normal weapon damage and no Damage Threshold negation (standard energy cells negate 2 points), but also reduces the strain on the weapon as well, reducing weapon degradation rate to 85% of normal.

Bulk energy cells are less potent than the standard version but are cheaper to purchase.
