Yeah, rise of the lasers again.
Oh yeah about all the QQ going on, please stop guys. Give it some time to sink in. Remember what many of us said when the reviews were out for dust, "they just played a few games and gave a review based on that and failed to realise its depth". Aren't you guys doing the same now.
Though I do feel the game mechanic has become kind of sloppy and heavy. |

With the new scopes I hope old laser users spec into them again and realize how viable they are against MD users. |

don't tell anybody. Although im sure they will find out soon enough. The few games i played the gun "feels" good. it already had decent dmg if you could aim. inside its optimal. Then i tried out my scrambler rifle and Ar, and they felt better also. I wish the dmg outside its optimal was a little better. |

Ah thousand of hours of the old stuff. 1.4 is relatively new to us. Aim assists and new stuff, so its basically evens the ground.

Agree, agree :) That's why Mass Drivers don't need a nerf anymore. Or else armour will become OP with nothing to chew it down. |

Minor nitpick, the laser is slightly off centre, it is about 3-5 pixels too low down and 2-3 pixels to the right of the ADS aiming dot, which is a little bit annoying. |

It seemed that way to me also. I have thought that for a while but blamed it on the old irons. |

I agree it's back, I enjoyed thoroughly killing a heavy hmg last night, by staying right in the mid range where his bullets didn't cause too much damage, and lasering his face with my beautiful new scope. |

No we just operate out of PIE Public drop by sometime and squad up with us. Amarr set ups like Aero's and mine are geared towards defensive actions so we could try setting up a laser gunline. The ScR gunline works wonders.
In two man teams Laser squads pack some serious stopping power. Alone they are easy to take down. |

Was going to talk about myself and True Adamance's combined 30-2 record when we whipped out the lasers in Ambush, but seems he has beaten me to the punch.
Unfortunately this thread title is inaccurate but hardly anyone will notice. Lasers aren't back, they never left. They've always been good, and True and I have been able to put up similar numbers before during Uprising. All you fair weather laser fans need not respond

Go the hell to sleep Yassavi even us immortal close need some down time.
Aye and Lasers have been great for the longest time now since the blue glow was removed. The fact that current lasers have the damage nerf but the same style of aiming as chromo and decent ADS. |

For lasers its not about killing a lot of people its more about maximising your precision and effectiveness. A KDR of 7+ would suffice as a great score for a laser match. |

ADS drop would put the LR firmly back into the non OP bracket which im sure we are about to receive when the rise of lasers becomes a movement..... im predicting this and speccing tanks.... |

i am an amarian i have an ako...with with the following weapon combos....
elm laser, proto smg, proto core locus nade, wyka triage hive, ishukone flux hive.
now with an adv md
exo5 md, proto smg, proto flux, wyka traige, ishukone guaged hive.
md flux smg is nastier yes true but it is situational. md is a short - med range weapon for the best effectiveness where smg covers mele range to medium range (skilled)
laser is a long range similar to the tac ar in range much more precise than the md laser rifles and massdriver are both very situational
in its proper situation md trump laser but in lasers propper position a md user is useless...md's are virtually useless across lvl ground over longer distances where as the laser is prime in that area. if a laser user runs into a md in close range and rushes in close to smg burst range the md user will either fire with the md and dmg himself most likely suicide or be smart pull that smg and then see if he is better with an smg than the laser....i think the only thing that gives the md build an automatic edge is the fact that fluxes take out 100% of a users shield.
but then i suppose you could run a laser suit speed tanked a bit witha smg flux combo and use the laser as a long range and the smg flux as a devastating close combo ...scouts use to run with only stnd smgs and fluxes and **** face ..a gallente scout should be able to do the same right now
