In-game Description
"An ambitious, complex space weapon that allows you to do almost anything from pressing the trigger to letting go of the trigger." - Gungrin
"I was well pleased." - Sydnee
"Received this weapon as a gift for my 18th birthday. Wish I'd known what it was because as soon as I fired it, I split down the middle and became the CEO of a multi-billion credit enterprise. Minus 2 stars because it doesn't one-shot a Xenon I." - Sir Kit
"It has a little something for everyone." - Envision Arms Network
Tactical Overview
The Astrid's primary weapon is an upscaled version of the small Mk1 Pulse Laser. It has the same damage output but a slightly faster projectile and more range. Aside from being very heat efficient, there isn't much to it.
The firepower is very lacking for a weapon of this size. That is unsurprising, considering it is mounted on a Yacht, not a combat ship.
You won't be destroying anything tougher than a light fighter with this.
Advantages:
- Very heat efficient
- Relatively long range
Disadvantages:
- Very low damage output, same as S Mk1 Pulse Laser
- Only available for the Astrid as the only option
- Because of how the burst clip is set up, reload boosting modifications like Cowboy have no effect.
