At the very best, it is a textbook "monkey's paw" sentry.

>the only situations where it doesn't immediately overheat and die are ones where enemy presence is so light that a regular sentry wouldn't have run out of ammo.
Lasers have poor damage output. There are only two ways to use them well:
>leverage their precise hitscan nature to target weakpoints
>leverage their ignition capabilities to light multiple targets on fire at range
The laser sentry does neither. It attacks center of mass against one target at a time until it dies. It will be the retarded black sheep of the sentries until AH does one of the following.
>maxes its targeting more intelligent to either aim for weakpoints or spread fire dots around (LMAO not happening)
>massively improves the base damage output
>massively reduce the cooldown so that you can at least cope with the knowledge that your shitty sentry is disposable and can be spammed.

Yes. I can't be arsed to remember the schedule. It will be back eventually.

This is why:
>early on the scorcher was our first explosive primary weapon
>so that we couldn't close every bug hole on the map with one scorcher magazine, they decided to give the plasma rifle poor demo force
>this reasoning continued to hold with the plasma punisher, purifier, and loyalist
>this is probably fair for these primary and secondary weapons
>fast forward the placebo group warbond
>Alexus crawled out of the basement and decided that the Epoch should also have fuckall demo force because plasma
>never-mind that the laser primary/secondary weapons have fuckall demo force, but the larger laser cannon, quasar cannon, and orbital laser have improved demo force to represent that they are more powerful weapons.
