Vorton Projectors uniquely use their own set of attributes, only affected by Vorton Projectors themselves, Condenser Packs, Vorton Tuning Systems, bonuses of EDENCOM ships, and related skills. The general rule is: if something does not says it affects Vorton Projectors, then it don't. There are few effects can affect attributes of Vorton Projectors:
Vorton Projectors uniquely use their own set of attributes, only affected by Vorton Projectors themselves, Condenser Packs, Vorton Tuning Systems, bonuses of EDENCOM ships, and related skills. There are a few other effects that modify the attributes of Vorton Projectors:
* 'Pyrolancea' boosters apply their weapon damage bonus to Vorton Projectors.
* Agency 'Pyrolancea' boosters apply a weapon damage bonus to Vorton Projectors.
* 'Halycon' boosters apply their optimal range bonus to Vorton Projectors.
* Halcyon B boosters apply an optimal range bonus to Vorton Projectors.
* Wolf-Rayet wormholes apply their small weapon damage bonus to small Vorton Projectors.
* Halcyon G boosters apply explosion radius and explosion velocity bonus to Vorton Projectors.

BPC of EDENCOM ships, Vorton Projectors, Condenser Packs, Vorton Tuning Systems are solely available from LP store of DED, and Tech 2 BPC of them (if any) are only available from [[invention]]. Their production involves abyssal materials, and they are generally expensive.

Faction and officer variants of the Vorton Tuning Systems, and Vorton Tuning Systems mutaplasmids are available from aiding the empires against pirate insurgencies and turning in items at counter-insurgency operation facilities in their War HQs.

Vorton Projectors, Condenser Packs, and Vorton Tuning Systems are known for their odds in item cost that their Tech 1 items are incredibly expensive compared to their corresponding Tech 2 items. While Tech 2 Vorton Projectors and Vorton Tuning Systems are just 10% more expensive than their corresponding Tech 1 modules, Tech 1 Condenser Packs are 110% to 140% more expensive than Tech 2 Condenser Packs of the same size. Due to the low price to use Tech 2 items, Tech 2 items are mostly the most cost-effective option to use. Tech 1 variants are somehow ridiculously expensive to buy due to very few capsuleers manufacturing them since Tech 2 items are better, and Tech 2 blueprints do not accept them as ingredients.
