keep in mind the LR is supposed to be the Amarr equivalent of the sniper rifle and those slaving scum are second in range only to the Caldari.
You are Amarr.....and from your words you sound like a traitor. Its better to die in battle or as slave in the name of God than live as a traitor to your own people.
Oh yeah L@Z0RZ need a buff!

Man and that only shows the lack of knowledge you have.
For the most part all Amarr are just normal people, like the kind who go to church and give you neighbourhood new forms, or go to youth groups and what not.
However as you know the Amarr are star faring theocracy who believe in a One True God, and who are ruled over in the billions by a strict caste system of nobles, and a single over arcing, all powerful Emperor or Empress.
Because of the unique history of the Amarr they have evolved in a number of ways becoming a product of their home world and religion, believing Mankind must be united beneath the heavens through the Faith the Amarr preach.
The Amarr achieve this goal by expanding into the stars, Reclaiming any and all worlds they can in the name of God and their Empress. But its not just the planets and territory. It is their sacred duty to unify mankind and as such they must Reclaim the peoples of New Eden and ensure they turn to the correct path.
Whats not to like? Champions of Justice, Unifiers and champions of the Dignity of Mankind, Crusades, Avenging Angels, Pseudo Space Marines, etc.....Oh and did I mention Battleskirts, Popped Collars, and Kufi Hats? Swag much?

LR should be stronger at close range and lose efficiency as distance increases, increased damage over time, and max out at great range but with minimal damage.
So says physics anyway.
Pffff what are Physics before the righteous fury of God!
((Lol even being a serious RPer I still find that insanely ironic))

They may be bat-sh#t crazy, and their Empress may be a psycho she-devil, but they are NOT cultists. Cults are of small size, and the Amarr Empire/Religion is the largest religion in New Eden. Calling them a cult is like calling Catholicism a cult. It just doesn't make any sense. (I personally believe the Empress is actually the most level-headed and benevolent leader in New Eden, and the Amarr Religion, while a little (a lot) harsh, is actually pretty cool and reasonably sane.)
(( OOC of course there are some very dark themes surrounding the Empress, but my interpretation of those themes are that they highlight the struggle she faces daily, not that I can comment IC about that. She is by far one of the wises and most tactful leaders the Amarr have ever had....Yeah I would say the Amarrian religion is harsh...but that's because the Amarr came from a harsh place. Athra wasn't a garden agri world of paradise world like the Gallentean or Minmatar homeworlds.))

The amarr aren't batsh!t crazy, they just think they're better than you - and they have a fair number of reasons to believe it too. The 'slaves' have the opportunity to convert which does better the lives of their progeny and eventually allows for full integration into the empire as 'first class' citizens. If you want to see *real* crazy you need to run afoul of the sani sabik cults - colloquially known as the 'blood raiders' for their propensity to capture and eventually murder whole starship crews for nothing more than their blood. Or you need to wander into the path of one of the children of Sandha Kuvakei, I was around when Sansha and his nation revealed themselves to the universe again. Lol. Yeah, the Amarr religion looks downright peaceful if you compare it to those two. They take insane to another level.
I read End of the World the other day....it gives disturbing insight to what a blood raider thinks....they are very disturbed people.

CCP Remnant wrote:Bad news.
The update isn't a simple backend change and it looks like there's an issue with content streaming (adjustments to range and damage falloff curves require modifying an Unreal .upk file) so the laser rifle adjustment is, in all likelihood, only going to go out with 1.8.
Sorry 'bout that.
Oh damn that too bad. Well I will be expecting it with much joy.
Sometime things just fall through. Keep at it Remnant. You are still my favourite Dev, ever since you mentioned this buff!

I'm hoping to get it hot-fixed in the next week or so. awesome. I tried my best to run the lr for the first couple of weeks after 1.7, but it's lost it's niche. the one thing it's good at right now is killing people on roofs, but that's not something that comes up often enough to use it consistently. the rail rifle out-performs it in every situation.
Or killing people from roof tops. I find that it is the most amazing gun on Manus. No one knows how to react or expects the beam laser.
