This coming from an full time LR user.
-I love the lack of sharpshooter. Makes me really think and make a strategy at which distance is good for positioning myself. No more low risk high reward kills. I like the risk I'm taking by shooting closer to the enemy.
-Overheat at 40 ammo. This gets annoying at first. Then I thought wyrm hellooooo this is just the basic LR. Really forces you to level up the laser and amarr dropsuit skills. Past build I could kill +15 people per match just with the basic LR. Not anymore.
-Iron sights. Reminds you that no longer is a long range weapon but medium range. So if you see a complete body inside the iron sights it means you won't hit them. Gotta get closer.
Really nice job CCP I would spec into lasers again if not for the upcoming SR. |

To me the sights cover too much of the target, once I start firing my target completely disappears because of the glow of the laser and the large sights. The heat build up may be a little fast but I am not in a suit that grants a bonus to heat. I do agree with the range nerf across the board but it seems to hurt the LR a lot. The LR feels like A close to medium range when trying to hit a distant target but acts like a medium at the far end of close range. I don't k ow how to explain it but it doesn't feel correct. Again, I may just be spoiled with the old LR. |

everything is good but the sights
I rememebr the QQ threads about lsers being dumb and useless 6 months ago. Once everyone got sharpshooter it became a god mode weapon, thanks CCP. Now that there is no sharpshooter please look at what ranges you want each gun to have >.> |

The issue is that the iron sights cover up the beam, which makes it a little difficult to adjust your aim.
Other than that I don't really know enough about LRs to comment. |

I like the Iron sights. they could be tweaked just a bit, but I just can't wait for weapon customization.
OP is right. Lasers are great this build. and this is coming from dedicated LR player.
P.S. If you want to overheat slower go Amarr assault. the specialization is worth it, IMO. |

For a weapon of that range, ironsights are ridiculous. Imagine the tactical AR without a scope. |

Only problem I see is the TAC AR having more range than the laser. People are going crazy at them atm so expect a range nerf.

Im doing both. Amarr ftw!
Plus i always like stumbling onto your posts. They are so positive!
Personally Im in a camp where Im fine with the ranges as they are but if CCP wanted to appeal to all the QQers perhaps they could reintroduce Sharpshooter with only a 2% range bonus per level and have it become specialised to a weapon e.g Scrambler Rifle Sharpshooter, SMG Sharp Shooter, AR Sharpshooter......but thats just me. |
