Starting either tomorrow or Wednesday, I will only exclusively use the Laser Rifle - yes, the laser rifle.
I will stack on Complex Damage mods to my Amarr A-1 Assault suit so I can be somewhat of a competitor, but every kill I get I will relish the moment because I know on the other end of the game there is a player reacting like this - http://download.ultradownloads.com.br/wallpaper/276253_Papel-de-Parede-Meme-Jackie-Chan_1600x900.jpg
I challenge others to take this "Laser Rifle Challenge," it will either bring some sort of just kitten around fun factor to the game, or enrage you as you die again and again and again and again and again ad infinitum. |

Why not. I'll probably do when i'm through with The Last of Us.
That's the spirit. Let those boosters do their job while you finish off The Last of Us, then come into DUST strong wielding the almighty nerfed to hell Laser Rifle! |

You're right, it isn't godawful like everyone says. I used it back right around the official release and did pretty well with it, but the iron sight and lens flare make it quite difficult to use. The LR did get a bit of a damage nerf as well, so unless someone stands still out in the desert plains of DUST, it's pretty hard to actually kill someone with the LR. |

Whoa man, it's all good.
I have over 8mil SP and already have SCR V, SCR Proficiency IV, SCR Reload II - I'm just doing LR's so I can be a well rounded True Amarr character. |

IMO, it just sucks to have an awesome pulse laser weapon (Scrambler Rifles), but have a horrid beam laser weapon (Laser Rifles).
I really loved the laser rifles due to their intimidation factor - I mean just seeing a laser beam sweep across the battlefield is a pretty "OH S***!" moment for a lot of players. Now with the LR's reduced damage output, iron sights, lens flare, and crazy feedback damage, if someone sees a beam lancing across the battlefield, their first thought is probably "man that guy must be new to DUST." |

The standard LR on its own is unwieldy and rarely useful, but if you fully specialise in it, it can be improved more than any other weapon in the game.
Care to elaborate?
The only way I can see making the standard LR viable is to dump complex damage mods unto your suit - Amarr Assault suit that is so you can get the overheat reduction bonus. |
