Re: Why do people want laser sights?

Its an attachment to increase hipfire presision.

I do not think its wise to introduce to Apex legends though, it would severely throw off balance on some weapons for CQC but that is what the typical use of the attachment is.

Its easy enough to not show your lazer if youre good though so its not that much of a flaw 🙂

  • Here’s what it could look like. Kinda indifferent about it though as long as the hop up doesn’t mess up the loot pool even more with this new hop up.

    So in other words, it's to lower the skill-gap? Gotcha.

    Guys. What if we get laser sights in a Kings Canyon after dark LTM? That’d be lit. Lol.

    I would rather not get a lazer sight on the rampage or spitfire to increase their hipfire any more for instance :P

    I would think every weapon needs rebalancing adding a hopup like that :P

  • If laser sights stood out clearly in bang smoke that would be pretty epic though, would make CQC smoke spammers useful for once lol.

    @MandatoryIDtag That seems counter intuitive to mean. If you're holding the laser sight in smoke I can tell right where you are. Kind of like people that use a charge rifle.
  • @hayhor  that was exactly my point, I shoulda phrased it clearer lol. 😛

    If you can see the laser, you can track its origin, works for them and you.....so if you choose not to equip one....well you get the jist of it hehe.

    @MandatoryIDtag on average during daylight, a red lazer can only be seen 25-30 yards away and a green lazer up to 100 yards. And I guess that depends on the size of the lazer, ie circumference.

    Maby respawn will only have the dot appearing on a target from the pointed lazer and not light up the sky. Might only have a viable distance too.
