The Laser is a wrist-mounted energy weapon in Perfect Dark with infinite ammo. The primary mode accurately fires a single pulse at the enemy with similar damage to the Falcon 2. Although the Laser does not use ammo, it is an unreliable weapon for intense firefights due to its low rate of fire which is inferior to many of the game's weapons.

The secondary mode fires a continuous short range beam that does very little damage per "hit" but "hits" about 33 times a second which can do significant damage if the enemy is kept in your sights. Also, despite its weakness, a "hit" to the head from this will kill enemies instantly in single player, unless their health has been increased a lot in Perfect Dark mode.

In-Game Description

The Laser is wrist-mounted and deadly accurate. It can either fire long-range pulses, or it can sustain a constant, concentrated stream of energy at short ranges.

Appearances

The Laser appears in the Carrington Institute: Defense mission, but is only required in Perfect Agent.

Trivia

A FistSim fires his so-called "short-range laser" at the player.

• In Combat Simulator game-modes, in the hands of FistSims, even if they use the secondary function for the "close-range beam", their lasers can actually hit their target from well beyond said close range. It may flicker from a distance but you will take damage upon being close enough for them to attack you.
• Also it is one of the 'excuses' for FistSims to actually use weapons, the other being the 'Combat Knife'.
