sorry for like the 4th post today. got a lot on my mind 
Ok so lets start with a suggested buff for the PR, for the purpose of this I will be comparing the fixed Pulse laser with the plasma repeater on fighters.
Currently the fixed Pulse Laser is a much more viable option than the PR as;
A- unlike PR, the PL has no ammo capacity= endless shooting
B- in cases such as the Ageis F taipan the DPS is 2 Higher with PL than PR.
C- (may sound a bit arrogant) But the PL does not require as much skill to use. simple point and shoot with no target leading.
D- (Link to C) projectiles are slow and can be easier to evade with even the slightest movements.
E- the PR's ammo and damage only allow for 1-2 targets before restocking. PL on other hand I can kill as many things as I please until it is destroyed.
My proposal? Significantly increase damage and ammo capacity to make the weapon stand out as a usable option. 50-100% dam increase would be sufficient as well as double ammo capacity. It's A Plasma weapon for Elite Sake!!! it's meant to Pack a punch.. especially since it does require skill as well as restrictions to ammo capacity.
Secondly, I would like to suggest the addition of class 1-2 PR's for standard ships. allowing ships like the eagle and such to pack an outstanding punch...the weapon would need to be expensive to make it harder for beginners to make use of it.
let me know what you think.
take care fellow CMDR's !!
