Lets make plasma weapons work for anyone, not just Pasqal.

As the title, I'm wanting to utilize plasma weaponry in another run, but I'm not sure how I can actually make the weapon type useful. Its just so sad compared to burst or sniper weaponry. So I'm looking to scrounge together every little bit I can to make it as good as I can. Whether that be dual plasma pistols, sword/pistol, or abusing master tac and the best plasma gun you can find.

Operative assassin not much different then sniper rifle just half as much range.

Plasma pistol works great for anyone.
Its a lovely weapn for a sword and pistol arch militant.

Overcharge aoe shots are where it's at with plasma weapons imo. Single shots are kinda pointless unfortunately.

Burst weapons are vastly overtuned with how the damage scaling talents work. Hell even some bosses seem to be dealing ridiculous amounts of damage with burst weapons in particular

I think thats mostly due to the fact that the overheat mechanic is not working correctly.

It's not optimal but you can work with it. That space marine horn gives you double crit for taking your armor to 0%

Your sniper doesn't need armor of course the laser will still do more but you can make it work if it's for role playing reasons.

That 10 range is kinda killer though
