Class 1 burst laser

The Burst laser is an energy weapon that's mounted on one of your ship's hardpoints and needs to be assigned to a fire group before it can be used. When fired it emits three laser blasts in each burst, much like a burst fire assault rifle compared to a single shot assault rifle. Burst lasers do much more damage in a single burst than a pulse laser does in a single shot. Burst Lasers require more power to use and generate more heat than a pulse laser.

• 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.
