All I see now is beams of light coming from everywhere and the fact it cuts thru armor as well as shields at the same rate is ridiculous. The LR is supposed to be strong against shields but the fact it can cut thru 400 HP of armor in 2 seconds is a bit much. As you try and out flank them the beam of light just follows you without error. So by the time you do reach the target you are either dead or near death and easy to finish off. With the Aim bot or whatever you call it being extremely proficient I have had the light actually go around corners and still connect. Now combine three or more of these in a group and good luck. The concept of the LR goes against all physics, the further light travels from its source the weaker it becomes. It is the opposite for this weapon. It should be a plasma beam and not a LR.
I am not asking for a nerf. I am just venting because this is now the fourth weapon that has been spammed to oblivion. TAC AR, Flay Lock, Fused Locus Grenade, and now the LR. Am I the only one sick of the flavors of the months. Its not the players fault so much as it is CCP for not releasing all weapons and balancing them correctly. I'm done venting, now the trolls can begin there usual get no where BS.
I'll leave this here:

No , laser rifles ARE ok. Stop QQ because they outrange your AR.
And i think i'll have to change the : ''none has QQ'd'' PART...
PROS: -Great range for a light weapon that is NOT sniper. -At longer ranges, the laser rifle is simply the best weapon you can use, (barely beating the TAC AR and SCRAM thou) -Improved damage -A.Assits helps you do damage at longer ranges -Freakn cool design and makes me feel like the eye of Sauron while on a roof. (I CAN SEE YOU....BRRRr.r... BZZZZZZ ... TOASTY!)
Cons: -Feedback damage -NEED To play Amarr assault or heavy for full efficiency (Good thing im amarr XD) -No damage increase from STD to ADV to PROTO, Making the proto variant not necessarily better... (since it costs x4 times the ELM) -Close quarters capabilities are NULL. -I cant use the overheated laser rifle to hit enemies like a Fire Red club of hate. -IT easily get out damaged by many other light weapons in the first 2-4 seconds of an engagement. -Optimal Range is too specific. -As Vell0cet pointed out, among other stuff, the fact that laser rifles ALWAYS give out your positioning |
