Pretty much a upgrade from the level 36 Veridian Beam, which only does 34 straight damage, and has 102 speed, but the V Beam has a bonus of Slow of [4]. So you can upgrade your damage, take a hit on speed, and loose a low ranking ability to upgrade just your damage. Hey it's crystal what do you want? Use these on laser specific mecha to get your damage bonuses, pack in laser augmenting equipment for more of a punch, and watch your skill point expenditure when you get them. A standard weapon at standard prices, what more do you expect from crystal?
