Simply stay out of line of sight during that short window, and try to move out of that narrow band of range. If you can get in close they will lose against any armor suit. (Shields will still have a good chance as well though)
The laser has serious drawbacks, but balances this (in theory) with superb cover fire that will force enemies to ground or die. Just make sure you aren't poking your head up during it's fire and you will be fine.
Ultimately just learn to respect the weapon as it can melt you. Treat it like you would a sniper... with a bright highly visible beam.
When I want to **** people over by suppressing them and keeping them entirely out of the match rather than killing them, Laser Rifle if my go to gun. It's the most amazing suppression tool I've ever laid hands on. You don't get to leave your hole until I get bored or someone ganks me.
Also it's good at killing people, but that's less fun.
It's happened once or twice someone couldn't pay the price, and I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals.

Because kills don't matter. Victory (and my enjoyment of the game) does. And if I can effectively keep two or more people huddled inside a building then that's several people less the rest of my team has to deal with, and I get to have fun in the process. If I kill them then sure, I get points. But then I risk letting them take a point, kill other members of my team, etc.
If it's just one person then fine, whatever, dead. There's not much tactical advantage to keeping a single person down unless they're a logi or someone you know to be a threat.
