Signum Link?

Was wondering what the difference is with this perk for the devastator. I can't actually notice it. Anyone realised what it does?

[KDR_11k]

I think it makes the names show up on enemies more often.

[konfeta]

It dramatically increases the range at which enemy names show up, and highlights enemies behind cover. It's actually pretty useful for sniping, though not necessary. If you already have very sharp eyes and great situational awareness, you will benefit more from one of the Lascannon perks or the defensive perks to avoid getting counter-sniped or assault marined.

[Snakeb1te]

I see. Why thankyou.

[Afoxi]

Best Lascannon perk imho.

[Chad Ghostal]

That perk is almost mandatory with the lascannon. You can't be sneaky sniping me, when your huge red name tag is floating above you.

[Caeltos]

It's the most optimal perk to go with sniping really. =]

[Snakeb1te]

What about lascannon stabilizers? the description says that they improve handling, so I thought they'd remove much of the recoil. It doesn't seem to make a difference though. Anyone know?

[Skullcap]

Lascannon + iron halo/chaos icon + sigmum = easymode snipering. Its handy since the names pop up of the enemy so you know whats coming to annihilate your face, it also makes much lulz to pop a assault/raptor in the air. The tactical version just gives health bars and name I believe more useful to have with the vengeance bolter and its 2nd perk imo.

[Snakeb1te]

Ok thanks, but you haven't actually told me what lascannon stabilizers do.

[konfeta]

Probably another broken perk. At least the reload speed perk makes a very noticeable difference.

[Zallis]

I believe the stabilizers reduce the recoil, so you don't have to readjust your aim as much after you fire. It's not very much (basically not worth giving up a different perk) and a bit hard to notice, but it does work. Its frankly worthless, though, since it's fairly easy to readjust after firing with the regular lascannon.

[konfeta]

Oh, that's it? A slight reduction in recoil? Well, that makes it completely pointless. The fact that you have to adjust the aim after every shot is the painful part, not the distance you need to adjust it for. Especially since most people dodge if you fail to headshot them.

[Snakeb1te]

Ok thanks

Signum link is 1000% the best perk for lascannon.
Protip: When you see their name, you can hit them, even if they're behind cover (lascannon pierces through some objects). On manufactorum it's just op, aim through center and if people try to hide behind the boxes, aim at their name, 3 shots will kill them ^^

[Shuma]

Baw gawd...

I guess i'll have to start using the Lascannon more.
