The '''Burst Laser''' is an energy weapon that emits a burst of three laser blasts with each shot. Burst Lasers can inflict more damage per shot than a [[Pulse Laser]] provided that each blast hits its target.

The '''Burst Laser''' is an energy weapon that emits a burst of three laser blasts with each shot. Burst Lasers can inflict more damage per shot than a [[Pulse Laser]] provided that each blast hits its target, but somewhat less than a [[Beam Laser]].

==Usage==

~~As with other laser weapons, the~~ Burst Laser inflicts thermal damage, and ~~so shields have a resistance penalty~~ against ~~them~~. [[Armour Hardness|Armour piercing]] capability is low, ~~but~~ slightly higher than that of [[Beam Laser]]s~~, making them less effective against hulls than shields~~. Burst Lasers require more power to use and generate more heat than a [[Pulse Laser]], but not as much so as a Beam Laser. The weapon's range is 3000m but [[Damage Falloff]] begins at 500m.

The Burst Laser inflicts thermal damage, making it very effective against shields and less effective against armour. Although its [[Armour Hardness|Armour piercing]] capability is low, it is slightly higher than that of [[Beam Laser]]s. Burst Lasers require more power to use and generate more heat than a [[Pulse Laser]], but not as much as a Beam Laser. The weapon's range is 3000m but [[Damage Falloff]] begins at 500m.
