FWIW I am happy with these skins
OR you could made entire set of NS laser weapons
I think this is precisely what they wanted with this bundle: unless I'm mistaken, these are all plasma-based weapons, like the Halberd SE.
The reason they are not making actual laser/beam weapons is that the effect would be supposedly very underwhelming, but this might just be rumor.
Originally, the Lasher used to be a beam weapon in alpha, and IIRC the Maw was also going to be a beam weapon, but the idea was eventually scrapped for both, because of how unconvincing the end result was.
Oh ya.. Speaking of the Halberd SE...
The other 150+ weapons that haven't even received a single variant are crying in the corner.
We'll get there. It's been a little rough when we've got NSO to worry about, but once that faction's arsenal gets filled out, we'll be able to do cool variants for faction weapons, instead of needing to fall back on common pool stuff.
Hey. We've gone more than 5 years without an NS-15M. I think we're overdue for a really cool looking and sounding version of one of the best common pool weapons in the game.
