Talk:Prime Laser Rifle/@comment-69.132.174.251-20150304092015

such an under-rated weapon. it is far better than the carriers shotgun which is considered one of the best sentinel weapons in the game. i did not make a video, so it is anecdotal evidence, but still.

i took my wyrm prime with the primed laser(2 forma+potato) into a mission with my maxxed rifle mods just to see how it would do. the laser rifle could kill the grineer soldiers in one burst and heavy gunners in 2 bursts.

i then started the mission over using the sweeper sentinel shotgun(2 forma+potato) with the identical shotgun version of the mods. i used the same status dual stat mods and all. everything maxxed. the shotgun would kill similarly when i was at point blank range, but that was it. once the enemy was more than a few meters away it started taking the shotgun multiple shots to kill instead.

the only benefit the shotgun had was it proc status effect more often, but even with 66.5% on the sweeper it was less than reliable to get a good proc.

the only sentinel weapon i can see maybe being better is the dethcubes machine gun since it has such a large clip size. instead of taking 1 sec to reload between each shot it can just keep firing forever. thinking about building one just to take its weapon and put it on my wyrm.
