Beam Laser: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:11, 25 April 2015

The Beam Laser is a high-damage thermic-based weapon. Its laser beam causes immediate damage to any vessel it collides with, especially at effective range. Known for their high power consumption, beam lasers belong to the most damaging weapons in the game.

Beam lasers can be fired continously for as long as the ship can readily provide them with stored weapon power.

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.

 {{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]].
