I just started using basic lazer rifle ( Operation 1) a week ago on a Logistics A/1 Series with about 550 eHP, scanner and nanohive and man this thing kicks ass !
I can confidently engage anyone from long range and have a laugh at the caldari assaults that think they can out range me with their rail rifles. You feel like a god when you can confidently engage heavies from long range and if someone is shooting you you can go take cover , heat up the lazer , and come back at them with a almost 2 second kill. I am terrified at what this weapon can do if I skill up Amaar Assault to 5. The damage will be OVER 9000 ! ;)
Maybe I'll do a video to demonstrate it's goodness.
Amaar weaponry ftw !

the lazor rifle is meh at best.. unless you put it on the amarr commando with damage mods then its a beast. its almost exclusively for mid to long range though.. and ScR is more mid range weapon now.. lazor rifle is also a good "target painter" per say too :P

I love the lazer and i agree with Atiim. The ads speed was increased and now it takes extreme dedication and training to get the aiming down. Though it will mess with aiming other weapons, especially rail rifles. but i think the trade off is worth it. also, amarr assault or go home, the commando doesn't make the lazer shine. |

The way the LR delivers its damage makes you have to be a little more thoughtful with it. Do you charge up the beam first and then swing it into the enemy's head to try and finish him off fast? Or do you attack him straight away, getting more overall damage done but most likely making them run for cover?
Also I find it depends a lot on the map. Some maps / areas really don't cater to the LR`s long range. I still love it though, even if I dont use it nearly as much as back in chromosome.

Mmm
The maps themselves cater to vehicles being able to 'somewhat' get near all objectives, which means anyone willing to throw down a few weeks worth of SP gain can get themselves a vehicle that will make long range battles difficult to engage in, closing the gap safely between CQC and Long Range.
It's my opinion lasers should get a special weapon damage, enabling 200% damage increase towards shields, but at a equally reduced against armor.
As it stands, the mechanics of this game do not support any type of weapon who can't engage up close. Then give the Laser a meaning, support fire/vehicle shield shredder. It would at least give Commandos a reason to use it. |

And what about the people who like to change role and playstyles during a match and don't want to waste time.
I still use the laser quite a bit whenever I play. Even managed to get a couple kills in a PC match with it not too long ago.

most people are not patient enough to built up the damage and take time to aim, they rather want run and gun CoD style. if I am not mistaken it does ~1k dps at 80% overheat. |

yes lets turn it into a weapon that wont ever kill anything, for it to be useful on the commando past std vs the assault it would need the same heat bonus

It's my favorite weapon in any FPS ever made, having a really unique and fun mechanic. The biggest negative is that you broadcast your location to the entire map, which makes you sniper/shotgun scout/HMG-in-LAV/ADS bait. It can really only ever be effective in open areas (ideally where you have cover and the enemy does not). Given the ammo usage (because you'll need to reload after every "burst" ) you're pretty much required to run damage modded Amarr Assault with nano hives and plates to really get the most from the gun. This tends to encourage camping, because you're slow, constantly need more ammo, and only a limited number of positions are effective. There are many counter tactics to this.
The damage profile and squirley aiming sensitivity makes it difficult to finish enemies, so I typically end up with a lot more assists than kills. That sucks because you're getting less payout at the end of the matches, even though you're doing a ton of damage--often 90% or more). The benefits are that you can use it to identify targets for your team (e.g. enemies are on a rooftop, or a cloaky scout trying to flank, etc.). It will melt Caldari. It's great against heavies out in the open. Overall it's a ton of fun to use.
Best PvE idea ever!

0/0 and it still aims like a toddler who just consumed an entire barrel of sugar.

I used to use it when I played. Minmatar Assault with an advanced laser rifle, complex damage mods and kinetic catalyzers.
I'd go into a building, spook some guy into chasing me; then I'd sprint like a ******* addict out the door and do either a hard left or right after going outside. By the time they got outside I'd be like 50m away and sizzling them to bacon perfection, to put on top of my tacos of course.

Cuz everyone likes easymode RR. And with the Laser you have to aim a thing that many people can't do. I like the Lazer its just a situational weapon

My weapon of choice for my smart commando since I started playing, it is tremendous fun. And those that say it fails on the commando suit fail to appreciate that it's damage buff is applied to its increased damage scaling ability, so whilst you can't fire it for all that lon you will burn targets up so much faster ;)

cept the amarr assault can get the same damage plus the extra firing time, im not saying you wont get kills with it coz you will its just crap next to an amarr assault with a laser

Consider game mechanics and other weapons, lazors have no place, RR or Sniper will both do it better, more reliably, without much thought involved and without revealing location.
RR is range DPS - Sniper is the one hit wonder range - Laser doesn't even make sense. Charge up the shot by making it fire constantly to build up heat - yet fire too long the weapon over-heats. We had OP lasers before - no range DPS should out DPS CQC weapons for a reason.
There's just no real way to balance lasers in this game. The best you can hope for is give them a niche/AV role so people will at least use them a support weapon. |
