Quietus

The Quietus is a weapon from Hexen. It is Baratus, the fighter's final weapon that can be retrieved in the game. The Quietus, like the other fourth weapons for the other classes, is in pieces. The three respective pieces must be collected before the weapon can be used.

When assembled, the Quietus shoots a barrage of five deadly plasma blades which do a heavy amount of damage to enemies. The arc of the projectiles angles slightly to the left, and the Quietus requires 14 mana of each kind to use.

Players cannot use the Quietus as a melee weapon in normal Hexen, but a modification known as the Korax Mod allows for it to be used as a melee weapon. Despite this, Quietus is most effective at near ranges.
