What the laser do?

[V-Bro - The Titan's Driver]

So I can attach tactical lasers, but I don't see any effect with it. I thought I should activate it or something, but unlike the tactical torch, pressing T does nothing.

I looked it up on Wiki, and it says that "The Tactical Green Laser is a Lights/Lasers attachment in Zero Sievert."



Somebody needed Wiki to figure that much out!?
Now tell me what it actually does gameplay-wise, cause wiki proved itself worthless.

I'm going to go out on a guess that it helps increase your character's effective range at closer ranges, but I'll have to test it and get back to you as I have never used a laser. Most attachments literally just give stats that affect how the guns handle.

Once you put the laser on your gun, press "L". It turns on lol.

Dunno what lasers do in this game, they don't increase agro, I've tried blinding a poor bandit in the swamp with 3 of them attached to my gun, poor lad. He didn't even react, nor did his friends.

-2 Ergonomics. Looks cool. Maybe handy in a close quarters battle where you're not crying in terror and blasting away like a mook?

Weapon mounted flashlight has more use before you get NVG.

Edit: In saying that, I've noticed the laser has a longer beam than the flashlight and lights up anything it crosses, and I had a bit of fun in a sewer with a red laser on a .45 pistol. That's my final selling point lol. Fun in ghoul infested sewer mounted on a pistol.

When it's foggy, it works quite well, it also seems to help your accuracy close in faster

This one is confirmed? it doesn't state any effect like that in the attachment so I assumed it was just to help you aim easier since the laser line is more visible than the cross-air most of the time.

I mean that is a laser's intended purpose irl and in most games, so either way...

Out of topic a bit but with certain headgear you can install 3 lasers on a gun... it serve no purpose but it looks cool

Lasers are to help you aim better, especially during foggy areas and night time, unless your aiming is good, you dont need laser, otherwise its for fancy show.
