Burst Laser

Burst Laser (Class 3, Fixed)

Multiple-pulse laser weapon...

— In-Game Description

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

The Burst Laser inflicts thermal damage, making it very effective against shields and less effective against armour. Although its Armour piercing capability is low, it is slightly higher than that of Beam Lasers. 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.
