[@thewizardguy]Crit chance. I believe some have it higher in that weapon tier? Or was it laser tier. I ca't navigate too much right now because of broadband so feel free to correct me on that.

It's plasma. So I suppose it'll fry mostly anything and rather quickly too. Corpses of civilians hit by those were entirely burned. So I'm going to say severe burns unless one has a really strong defense against that type of damage. I'm not very savvy on this btw.

They could technically use covering fire to shoot down someone who'd be about to shoot an ally before the target could actually shoot. But I know that the lore dictates that they have upgrades and are specifically made of combat environment. I'd assume they'd have adequate reflexes. That and I've actually made Mind Merge a reflex upper in my CS.
