The Terminator T-1000 Skynet Incorporated 309	Posted - 2014.04.01 22:15:00 - [1] - Quote Im trying to decide between the 2. Maybe someone can help me. Which do you prefer and why? Also what is the effective and optimum range for each one. I am leaning towards the RR but to me it kicks too much. The LR does not kick but I have to keep it on target longer.

Contaminator Aquarius WASTELAND JUNK REMOVAL Top Men. 20	Posted - 2014.04.01 22:20:00 - [5] - Quote Laser rifle is fun and with shield tanks and its buffs it is relevant again. However, it is still an incredibly range specific gun. If you are not in its optimal you are not effective... at all... that said I enjoy it and would recommend getting ti with any spare SP that you have. I frequently use the RR. I am a caldari fan boy so that doesn't help sell it. But it has a better band of performance than the laser rifle. Its all about your play style.
Vulpes Dolosus SVER True Blood General Tso's Alliance 1240	Posted - 2014.04.01 22:21:00 - [6] - Quote Rail if you want to be effective. Lasers if you want to be awesome. Me in my ADS: 1,2
Monkey MAC Rough Riders.. 2350	Posted - 2014.04.01 22:22:00 - [7] - Quote Me 350 EHP with laser rifle gets a 900 EHP Caldari Sentinel down to 10 Armour. Laser Rifle all the way, as it should be. Unless your a Computer Scientist don't tell me how Game Mechanics Work. Monkey Mac - Forum Warrior of the Trees Lvl 2.

I-Shayz-I I-----I 2792	Posted - 2014.04.01 22:28:00 - [10] - Quote Lasers make you easier to see, have a small ammo cap, and don't get a lot of kills...however you can be MUCH farther from your opponents and can counter people with RRs. RRs are better for medium range engagments and can be somewhat tricky to use at super long ranges because of the kick. The RR also has an assault variant if you spend more time in CQC.

And I preheat where I think the tactic is going to be useful to me and tactically viable. Other wise I just burn out to range...which given my role as Commando is where I should be. LR is all about positioning.....after which the techniques you use to achieve a kill has to vary. Pre Heat into the enemy's heavy cover.

Vell0cet Dirt Nap Squad Dirt Nap Squad. 1353	Posted - 2014.04.02 00:22:00 - [19] - Quote The LR still feels a bit underpowered. It's more viable than 1.6-1.7, but because they nerfed the heat buildup reduction by tiers, it offsets the damage increase buffs to some extent. I think it needs another 10-20m effective range (keep the optimal the same) to compensate for the major drawbacks the LR has, as well as some ADS sensitivity refinement. They are extremely vulnerable to snipers and cloaky scouts, since you're kinda forced to camp on nanohives for long periods of time with a giant bright line revealing your location to the whole map. Still, they are the most interesting and unique weapon I've ever used in any FPS. They can be a lot of fun if you happen to be in exactly the right situation where they're effective. The RR is incredibly versatile, packs a punch, and has nearly the same range. Most players would probably be better off using the RR. Best PvE idea ever!

News to me.....shifting positions constantly helps some. As I like to say a single Amarrian with a laser rifle can deny enemy squads an objective....Two? We could probably drop a titan.
