Range 30 ft.

The caramel cannon shoots globs of sticky caramel. When you Area Fire this weapon, instead of dealing damage, you create difficult terrain in the affected area that lasts for 2 rounds. If you're trained with this weapon, creatures in the area that fail their Reflex saves treat the area as greater difficult terrain (and become immobilized on a critical failure). Creatures can attempt to Escape against your class DC to remove the immobilized condition. If you have the primary target class feature, you can attempt to Grapple your primary target instead of Strike (with a –2 circumstance penalty, as normal for the ranged grapple trait).

Critical Specialization Effects
Source Player Core pg. 258
Certain feats, class features, weapon fusions, and other effects can grant you additional benefits when you make a Strike with certain weapons and get a critical success. This is called a critical specialization effect. The exact effect depends on which weapon group your weapon belongs to, as listed below. You can always decide not to add the critical specialization effect of your weapon.
Projectile The target must succeed at a Fortitude save against your class DC or be slowed 1 until the start of your next turn.
