{{quote|Single-pulse laser weapon...|In-Game Description}}

A pulse laser is mounted on one of a ships hardpoints and requires assignment to a fire group before you can use it. It's an energy weapon which causes immediate damage to any ship it hits at effective range.

Pulse lasers can deliver a significant amount of damage in a single hit. Unlike other Lasers that fire continuously when triggered, a pulse laser fires intermittently in an on/off fashion. Compared to the other two laser types it emits the least waste heat, draws the least [[Power Distributor|distributor]] energy and is also cheapest, at the cost of DPS/Damage.

Pulse lasers are available as fixed, gimbal and turret mounted weapons.

==Specifications==
Another variant is the [[Pulse Disruptor|Pulse Disruptor Laser]].

It deals thermic damage at a [[Damage Falloff|Falloff Range]] of 500m and a maximum range of 3000m for every Pulse Laser.
