Meh. You can't get specialized weapons without LP, so there's that. You also have (near) zero impact on New Eden outside of FW.

Specialized weapons cost double the LP and ISK.
Specialized weapons also use CPU and PG of Advanced weapons. You get what you pay for.

So?
That doesn't change the fact that LP rewards are low.
It's not like these weapons are a great deal or something, they cost double.
I'm not arguing with you about the LP payouts. I've been supportive of slightly higher rewards, so do please drop the hostility towards me.
I will, however, argue with you about "great deals" since I brought up CPU and PG.
I'll go out of my way and mention the Commando suit. This suit at an advanced level has one high, one low, one equipment, two lights. If you've never ran the Commando, PG and CPU management is important. It's like a logistic suit except extremely restrictive on what could be ran. Unlike the logistic suits, however, ever slot in the Commando is important and dictate a style of play entirely on a higher scale. Instead of running a Duvolle and pretty much **** myself, I can run a specialized Duvolle and be able to use the remaining CPU and PG towards either my modules or my other light, which is also extremely important on the Commando.
I'll use another example, this one not including me. (How shocking.)
Let's talk about newer players. Let's face it: They're not going to immediately know to max out their cores. Maybe this guy spent nearly all his SP on getting operation V, prof. III Plasma Rifle. (Stupid as all hell move, but whatever.) Not only does that guy not have the extra PG and CPU that was gotten from cores, but his entire fitting is structured around a Plasma Rifle and whatever suit he chose to dump the rest in. You're going to stand there and tell me that a prototype weapon that has the CPU and PG of an advanced weapon would not be ideal to this guy?
