Zuckuss made use of a specialized respirator, which allowed him to breathe ammonia in oxygen-rich environments. Zuckuss also equipped a heavy set of [[battle armor]] under his heavy cloak to protect his body while on missions. He would also don a computer and a [[sensor array]], which he hung on straps around his neck.<ref name="ohh" />
Zuckuss's primary weapon was the [[GRS-1 snare rifle]]. It was capable of hitting targets up to 150 meters away with liquefied [[shockstun mist]], which hardened into a translucent web upon contact. Zuckuss also occasionally used the [[BlasTech Industries|BlasTech]] [[W-90 concussion rifle]], and was also proficient in the use of [[stun grenade]]s, [[vibro-blade]]s and a wide variety of other [[blaster pistol]]s and [[blaster rifle]]s.<ref name="ff61">''[[The Official Star Wars Fact File 61]]''</ref>

Zuckuss made use of two ships throughout his long career. The first, used during the hunt for the Yavin Vassilika, had an extremely fast [[hyperdrive]] that rivaled that of the ''Millennium Falcon''. It beat the ''Falcon'' numerous times during the race for the Yavin Vassilika.<ref name="uyv" /> After his reunion with 4-LOM, Zuckuss acquired a new ship, dubbed the ''Mist Hunter''. The ship was manufactured and modified by [[Byblos Drive Yards]] and was commissioned by a group of Gand businessmen.<ref name="ohh" /> A 15 meter [[G-1A transport]], the ship proved effective for Zuckuss. It made use of special repulsorlift technology developed for [[cloud car]]s, such as those on [[Bespin]]. Later, the Rebel Alliance heavily modified the ship, bringing it closer in capacity to a recon ship. Smuggling compartments capable of carrying eight beings were installed, along with a sensor mask, [[tractor beam]], and various weapons upgrades.<ref name="hod">''[[Harbingers of Doom]]''</ref>
Wiki editing, it seems.
