I think it's still in the game, it's a heavy laser blaster that looks just like the HAR however it's more of a beta throw back than anything else. Unfortuantly it's a very poor weapon with no certs anyway.

I did not participate in beta, but I have written many posts on a Heavy repeater blaster in place of our HAR. It makes sense. Anyways, maybe if we get enough commandos to post about it, maybe the devs will see what a good idea it is and implement it. *maybe* Just some wishful thinking.

Still in game? I have been playing since 2nd day it came out? I have never seen such weapon...Im not disagreeing with you, perhaps I have missed something all along. Could you please show some kind of screenshot with it in action? - Very curious-

It was called the Beam Rifle, and yes it still can be made. The schematic is mis-labeled as a "acid stream launcher" but it is not the heavy weapon acid stream launcher that is in the master weaponsmith box, this one is in munitions 4I believe. It is a hold over from beta, there is no cert for it. And yes, it did suck.

I've got a Beam Rifle in my bank box, if I think about it and enough people don't know what the stats are I'll try and post a link to it. It is classifed as a Rifle, the graphic is okay and when equipped and fired w/o the Certification, it does like 20 damage.


And it only cost me 1000 credits from someone's "junk" vendor.

We can hit and run.... but it's mostly running while being hit.
