Buffs most commonly seen energy weapons by anywhere from 2-6 shots. Laser pistols get closer to 2-3, laser carbines and rifles see buffs of 3-5 more shots, and blasters get the most love at 2-6 more shots, depending on model. Anything with a scope, disruptors, anything that autorecharges, or otherwise unique/odd have been left alone. These changes are being made to hopefully bring energy weapons more in line with ballistics. I've noticed that energy weapons are very rarely used by anyone but security or someone doing a very specific gimmick. Any time its rev or there otherwise is a crew militia started, I'll order both laser and ballistics, and the ballistics are always taken first. Ballistics overall are very strong, dealing far more enduring damage than energy weapons tend to. And, most ballistics blow energy weapons out of the water for just raw DPS. For example, both the laser rifle and burst rifle have a damage of 30, with an ap of 20 for the laser and 28 for the ballistic. This is fairly comparable, but critically, the burst rifle is a burst rifle. So per trigger pull, you're potentially doing up to 60 damage with ap 28. This of course assumes you're using lethal for both, polymer rounds for the burst rifle do 25 damage at ap 34. Which would be up to 50 damage per trigger pull. I just don't think that the rechargeable plus beams going through windows makes up for it. Energy weapons also just suffer from critically small ammo counts. Which is fine in a ship environment like the horizon (to a degree), but they tend to perform very poorly in expedition settings. To the point that they're arguably not worth taking for most away sites. This is mostly because the average encounter will spend half or 1/3rd your ammo. I still want ballistics and energy weapons to have their respective rolls of expendable ammo vs rechargeable, and projectile vs beams (going through windows without having to break them first being a very nice advantage). But, I'd like to see people at least consider energy weapons over ballistic for mechanical reasons rather than just flavor. Like I tend to do with their current stats.
