The Up-n-Atomizer is a Raygun featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the continuation of the Arena War update, released on January 1, 2019, during the Festive Surprise 2018 event.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Up-n-Atomizer is a small handheld futuristic blaster, sporting a blue finish with a yellow coil as the barrel. When a shot is fired from the weapon, it will take on the appearance of a glowing coil before exploding in a small blue blast.
Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Up-n-Atomizer is an interesting weapon; it fires a yellow glowing coil beam that travels 95 meters/312 feet, and will explode after half of a second, or upon impact with a surface or object. The coil beam is fired at a speed of 684 kph/425 mph. The weapon features no traditional ammunition, rather it recharges its shot after two seconds, similarly to the Stun Gun.
The damage the weapon emits is not as strong compared to other explosive weapons in the game such as the Railgun. When a person is hit directly with a shot, it will send them flying into the air, and requires three shots to kill Rank 100 players. It can also instantly kill NPCs with a headshot. The projectile splash radius is 2.5 meters compared to the other explosives’ five meters. If a shot is close but doesn't directly hit the person, it will stun NPCs in a 12 meter radius while having no effect on players. The Up-n-Atomizer’s lock-on range is 20 meters, which makes it deadly at close quarters combat. Skilled players are also able to use the gun to unseat opponents flying the Oppressor Mk II, usually causing their death from falling while not destroying the bike (thereby avoiding a Bad Sport penalty).
Firing it at a target that's too close to the player (or directly at the floor) will cause the player to fly into the air; this effect can be useful for reaching locations like lower rooftops that the player cannot otherwise reach on foot, except by using ladders.
When a vehicle is shot, it will send it flying while dealing minimal damage. This can be rather useful against vehicles, especially ones that have become stuck and are unable to move otherwise. However, one downside to the Up-n-Atomizer is that it cannot be fired while in a vehicle. Using the weapon to dislodge a vehicle will still damage the vehicle to an extent and too many shots will destroy it.
The Up-n-Atomizer can also be used to knock down chain-link fences - including some (though not all) fences that vehicles cannot knock down.
Before a subsequent update removed the ability to use it indoors, the ray gun could be used in Stash Houses to clear bodies and debris away that were blocking the post-it notes with the safe combination.

Oversights[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- There is a glitch where the player can use the Up-n-Atomizer while inside a vehicle. It is unknown what causes this glitch, but it seems to happen randomly when the player uses it before entering a vehicle.
- Other instances of this glitch seem to happen when the player uses a mounted turret and goes back to the seat of the vehicle without switching weapons. Again, it happens when the player uses the weapon before entering the turreted vehicle.
