Heat Laser has a minimum level requirement of 85 and costs 2,222 Ferrite, 1,600 Bioptics and, 65 crystal. It does 60 damage with a speed of 100 with 2X damage at 6% for an ability. It's a nice weapon all around really more damage than the res laser with the same speed rating with a better ability percentage attached to it.
These are excellent weapons for you laser based mechs like your Bishops, Dilos, Frigis etc. Basically any mech with the build specs saying pluses to laser damage is great. Of course you can augment the laser abilities with the proper equipment as well as the percentage for dealing X2 damage. These are great little toys for the laser based KOTM they don't pack the punch that some niode based weapons do but are good contenders none the less. When you get to the level where these become available I recommend them highly as they are great crystal stand ins for firepower.
