{{quote|Continuous-fire laser weapon...|In-Game Description}}

A Beam Laser is an energy [[Weapons|weapon]] that causes immediate damage to any ship it intersects at effective range. Beam lasers "stay on" until the person firing it deactivates it. This means that a large amount of damage is inflicted on any ship that stays within its path. Also, it can be "swept" across an enemy doing damage to multiple parts of the [[Shield Generator|shield]] or hull or it can be directed across multiple enemies. An advantage of the Beam Laser is that most [[ships]] have the capability to fire a single one indefinably, or at least for a extremely prolonged time. This allows a continuous stream of damage to ships shields, taking an [[Anaconda]]'s down within a 30 second time frame. Potentially 40-50 when mounted on smaller ships such as the [[Sidewinder]] and the [[Hauler]].

* Damage, DPS, and Thermal Load are all based upon the in-game display which is basically an "out of 10" scale thus the values for these sections should be assumed as approximations.
