Now that hybrids will be looked at this winter I am wondering how long will it be for hardcore laser fanatics to start the whinetrain. It seems its a never ending circle imo, one thing gets buffed others fall back and need buffed to keep in line with current trends. I for one would like more base damge for my HPL II's Twisted

Meh, I'd prefer more range on my HPL's so I can run 4's in my Legion Twisted

I'd prefer that the Punisher, Maller and Prophecy got bonuses that made it viable to fit lasers to them.

Exactly, it's those few boats that needs buff. Laser as a weapon class do not need buff. It's not the same as Gallante and hybrids, where both suck.

No other long range gun comes close to the raw dmg projection of Tachs. Their only balancing factor being cap usage and grid fitting requirement - most boats can't fit a full rack. It's as if Tachs are a size higher than the largest large guns of other races - 425mm rails and 1400mm arty.
