Talk:Burst Laser/@comment-90.200.46.38-20181123175250

Burst lasers are the best choice for turrets imo. They more damage than pulse, don't waste ammo like cannon and multi-cannon, and let's not even talk about frag cannons for turrets because that's just a dumb idea.

They're better than beam too (unless you use multicrew) because the AI shows no restraint over their use - it'll fire from far away pointlessly until your distributor charge is used up, disabling it and your other energy weapons too.

Burst on the other hand are more of a leave-on-and-forget weapon. Which is exactly what I want from turrets.
