Stack damage mods and you got a insta kill weapon.

Theres a reason people consider it OP(unbalanced) and they are correct it has the best alpha damage in the game and it was never tweaked or flattened toward the std version like every other weapon in this game was.

What you are wielding is the kind of dmg potential all proto weapons(especially ARs) had before the QQ.

Yepp I remember those days..... when Gaston hmg's did 24 dmg..... good times.

I think my first match with it was when my squad rolled with you doug and 2 other imps I cant remember....

I use to love my breach AR..... Not anymore though.

I unlocked it about 2 days ago and I cant put it down. Greatest weapon in this game (that I have played with). Now I know a lot of people think it is OP.... I have to say that it is awesome but def not OP it still sucks at CQC as it should.

Now I have used it in 2 different scenarios.
1. Sitting somewhere out of direct combat and pretty much snipe people ( sharp shooter prof 2). I can average arpund 16-20 kills a game with no deaths. This is how I think the laser was built to play.
2. Running with a squad of AR'S and one logi bro. This play style is very active and dangerous, but wields greater results. I can average around 22-29 kills a match and maybe 1 death (logi rez so no isk loss).

The tactical squad and team advantages of both play styles is the same. Pinning, ranged kills, and anti sniper/AV are usually what the laser rifle does best. I have found that the aggressive playstyle is actually more effective at controlling the enemy teams movement.

Any thoughts or ideas you guys have would be awesome.

Undead out.

IDK if it's me but I stacked 3 complex damage mods with a STD LR and I didn't noticed a significant damage boost. So I just went shield stacking instead, snipers really get annoying without shields...

All percentage buffs tend to favor those with a higher base value by definition. The laser rifle's damage base value is only 15, so each additional 10% is not nearly as noticeable as for something like the GEK which has a damage base value of 32.5.

Amarr has their weapon made right. I've been rocking the Laser Rifle for distances and Scrambler Pistol for close encounters and it's amazing! I'm wondering though, is the Vizium really THAT much better? I seem to do doing pretty darn good with the basic one as is, thinking I'd rather work towards Light Sharpshooter Lv 5 first.

Get your sharp up first. But yes the dmg is insane..... with 3 dmg mods its just stupid.

If you didn't know the elm at 3/4 heat does 225% more dmg.... the viz does 500% nough said.

Preheat your viz, scroll over mob, kill everyone.
