Considered a cynical attempt by blaster manufacturers to circumvent restrictions on military grade rifles, this weapon retains the legal status of a sporting blaster rifle and relies on overfocusing the blaster beam to significantly increase its punch. However, to gain the full benefit of the overfocused beam, the shooter must be precise. Targeting blaster rifles can be quickly disassembled for ease of storage and just as quickly reassembled when the weapon is needed. Assembling or disassembling the weapon requires a full-round action. Although the weapon is ostensibly designed for the sport hunter who wants something with a bit more kick, the targeting blaster rifle is popular with assassins, and only extensive lobbying by the manufacturers has prevented these weaponsfrom being recategorized as military-grade hardware.{{newline}}If you aim prior to making an attack roll, the targeting blaster rifle’s damage dice change from d6s to d8s. A targeting blaster rifle does not have a folding stock.{{newline}}A targeting blaster rifle requires a power pack to operate. After 50 shots, the power pack must be replaced.{{newline}}'''Accurate Weapon:''' This weapon takes no penalty when firing at targets at short range.}}

During the [[Eras_of_Play#Rise_of_the_Empire_Era|Clone Wars]], when battles are fought far from Republic supply lines, clone troopers take advantage of the abilioty to dial their weapon’s power up or down depending on the enemies they face. When fighting B1-Series battle droids, for example, the clones conserve their ammunition by using lighter damage settings.{{newline}}A variable blaster rifles requires a power pack to operate. After 500 shots, the weapon’s power pack must be replaced.{{newline}}* As a swift action, you can adjust the weapon’s base damage to 3d6, but doing so causes the weapon to consume five times more shots per attack. Likewise, you can adjust the weapon&rquo;s base damage to 3d8, but doing so causes the weapon to consume ten times more shots per attack. For example, attacking with Rapid Shot normally consumes 2 shots from a blaster. On its weakest srtting, each Rapid Shot attack with a variable lbaster consumes 2 of the rifle’s 500 shots. If the rifle is set to 3d6 damage, each attack with Rapid Shot consumes 10 of the rifle’s 500 shots (2 × 5 = 10). If the rifle is set to 3d8 damage, each attack with Rapid Shot consumes 20 of the rifle’s 500 shots (2 × 10 = 20).}}

It is designed with accuracy in mind, with input from some of the galaxy’s best sharpshooters.{{newline}}The ARC-9965 is not without its flaws. the higher-accuracy blaster bolts consume more energy than a standard blaster rifle, lowering its ammunition capacity. Additionally, since the weapon is designed for more accuracy than sprays of fire, each autofire attack made with the weapon consumes 10 shots.{{newline}}The ARC-9965 blaster rifle requires a power pack to operate. After 40 shots, the power pack must be replaced. The ARC-9965 blaster rifles also has a retractable stock.{{newline}}'''Accurate Weapon:''' This weapon takes no penalty when firing at targets at short range.}}

The rifle comes standard with a top-mounted rangefinder and electronic sight that acts as a stadnard targeting scope.

When sales to bounty hunters skyrocket, SoroSuub markets the rifle as “the most effective weapon available for freelance law enforcement officials.” Although the rifle’s owners come from different walks of life, most are bounty hunters who use the firearm to bring back their targets alive. In addition to its stum capability, the Firelance is also lighter than other blaster rifles in its class, weighing as little as a carbine and making it a good choice for those law enforcement agents who need to travel long distances to track their quarry.}}
