Sure you can call it a scrambler lance you sissies.
Existing assets: Forge gun Painted Gold. Laser Rifle Beam
Function: AV primary, AI secondary, Dual-purpose
Mechanics:
Fires like a laser rifle, complete with overheat.
Damage application: Steady base 450 STD/500 ADV /550 PRO DPS for as long as the beam lingers on the target.
The beam should NOT increase in damage as the gun heats up or it becomes overpowered vs. infantry and becomes harder to scale for AV.
The weapon should not benefit from Aim Assist. ever.
Range: Recommend 150 optimal, 220 effective.
Heat mechanic: Weapon overheats at approximately 8 seconds at proficiency 5.
Weapon does not seize, but instead begins directly applying 150-200 DPS to the weapon's operator.
While firing the heavy laser, repair tools cannot lock, nor can triage hives rep the operator due to the EM discharge disrupting electronics and frying the nanites used to repair dropsuits.

A heavy laser rifle sounds boring, I want the Spartan Laser from Halo except it fires the laser for a few seconds and you can't cancel it or switch weapons.
Half of what I say is sarcasm. Don't take me too seriously.

i like the name beam lance.
and i think it should be a mix of a scrambler rifle and laser rifle.
charge and hold, release to fire one continuous beam that lasts for a few seconds then it forces a cooldown.
1-3 seconds charge. 2-6 seconds of fire time. and 1-3 seconds off cool down.
so it could be like a larger clip with 1 second charge, 2 second fire, 1 second cool down. for one round. say 16
or a smaller clip with 2-4-2 or 3-6-3 if its av and the longer the charge/fire/cooldown the higher damage and smaller the clip itd be.
cooldown would be mandatory and it'd vent like an overheated scrambler rifle, but with no feedback damage.
it could also be a 1 round weapon with very high forgegun like damage for killing tanks.
after it cools itd spit the burnt up battery out.
you have to balance when you fire because your vulnerable before and after.

I'd prefer to not try and combine a scrambler charge with a laser rifle beam. Your method doesn't allow for any tactical flexibility and bluntly every other AV weapon has a charge mechanic already. It'd be nice to have one you can use RIGHT NOW!

Hmm, maybe we could have an Assault variant that is effective towards infantry as well? This could make for some interesting heavy area of denial tactics.

Trust me. This would be effective against infantry. What I have laid out is survivable but it's going to make shield suits **** themselves hard.
I ran the math already.
Buffing it to fight infantry pushes it deeply into OP. I excluded the laser rifle overheat precisely due to the DPS spikes versus infantry. The weapon is intended to be steady DPS on a target with a hazard from firing too long.
IMHO making the laser a high alpha will only punish shield players further and encourage mor armor master race BS.
