Looking at the stats you guys posted a few days ago, there's something "strange" at least. I'm referring to the range of each weapons and Laser Rifles. Is the Laser Rifle range going to change? Otherwise it would have almost the same optimal as the Caldari Rail Rifle, with much less damage over 3 seconds. What I was wondering is: is the laser rifle going to be buffed someway? range buff or maybe more buildup damage? or simply nothing?

a buff in optimal range would be wisely... i'm thinking of spec into the laser rifle further... but i fear they will not change it causing me getting instapooped by rail rifles :/
i mean now the Srambler Rifles can kill you (or at least damaging you really hard) at range when you're not further than 70-80 meters away from them... and even the SCR will get a range buff so let's hope they buff the laser too! |

That's right, but the Laser Rifle is pretty atypical imo. It should have much higher range, simply because at medium/close range it's inefficient.

Altering the lasers' range so that they scale with meta level would make Viziams worthwhile and address this issue. |

Definitely increasing the size of its optimal towards you, to increase its versatility somewhat.

I'm predicting the drawback of the rail rifle is going to be its recoil. At longer ranges, it may be difficult to get shots off, whereas with the laser, it's still pinpoint accurate.
