Laser RCW recycler - Recycles and replenishes 1 in 4 shots.

The laser RCW can fire a total of about 1995 times using standard packs, the equivalent of 34 reloads, or 25 reloads when modified with the recycler, from full condition before breaking. This effect is especially pronounced in low light conditions. Using true iron sights can become difficult with this weapon, as the bright pulse emitted when it fires can easily obscure the tiny field of vision that the iron sights allow. It also has the second-lowest critical chance of any energy weapon in the entire game.

A partial solution to this problem is to apply the laser RCW recycler modification, which recycles every fourth discharge.

Using it extensively on full-auto requires large amounts of ammunition. As a directed energy weapon, it has no recoil, allowing for continuous fire without muzzle climb. With adequate Energy Weapons skill and Strength, this weapon exhibits moderate accuracy due to a high spread for a laser weapon, making it useful for taking down enemies at almost any range. The single barrel is also a detriment to the long-term use of the weapon, as constant repairs are necessary to maintain the sole barrel used for directing all lasers, a problem sidestepped in more advanced Gatling lasers by having multiple barrels. This high rate of fire restricts the Laser RCW to using only the ECP ammunition type. This capacitor rotation allows the Laser RCW to operate like a multi-barreled ballistic weapon (for example, the minigun), and avoids the rate-of-fire limitations imposed by a single capacitor design. While each capacitor is firing, the ECP is used to recharge the previously discharged capacitors. The capacitors in the drum are rotated as they fire in succession, producing a single continuous laser beam. This drum contains a bank of 6 capacitors in a circle formation, centered around an electron charge pack (ECP). The unique feature of this 'laser assault rifle' is the addition of a 'drum,' which gives this weapon its unique look, high rate of fire, and name. A precursor to the Gatling laser, the gun was designed to mimic a famous gun design and invoke in buyers the same rapid delivery of ordnance but instead with lasers.
