Back in Uprising we got a range increase on ELM and Viziam, but from what I can tell they have the same range now (not really tested that much, I can't stand the current sights). The base damage is the same and ststs look almost the same...but the Viziam is tricky and only who really loves it can understand its secrets
Agreed. Lasers are fickle mistresses, only by treating them right, and listening to hours of their terribly sappy stories can you finally get access to their sweet sweet secrets. |

The base damage is the same and ststs look almost the same...but the Viziam is tricky and only who really loves it can understand its secrets lawl, heat build up has everything to do with its dps, ( I think, still testing it out ) Amarr can fire longer, meens more dps. I think the idea is to always have the gun at 50% heat. I find I drop people pretty fast like that, but having to shoot the laser at a wall before i step out to fire at someone is ********.. they should add a proto type variant that preheats to 50% when its in hand,.
I can only entirely disagree with your philosophy about how to use a laser rifle.... but your method means you fire longer and reload less.
The way I use the laser means I fire less, do more damage, and reload more. |

No but you can swipe through enemies once the charge reaches its peak, you sacrifice long charge times for quicker kills and the chance to swipe through weakened enemies. |

sounds like a 1 kill 53 assist strategy, im kinda into the 12-20+ kill strategy's but ill try this, /shrug
I get more kills this way since I'm the one pouring on the damage it also nets me a disproportionate number of head shot kills, since the beam just has to tag their head to insta kill them. |
