Tactical Information

  • The Talon is uniquely the only Laser weapon in the armory to be semi-automatic. Its RPM is also practically uncapped, and can fire as quickly as its relative, the LAS-16 Sickle. However, its heat sink is the smallest of any LAS weapon and can overheat within 7 shots.
  • Because of it's extremely small heat sink, it is recommended to fire in short six round bursts like standard revolvers.
  • The Talon takes approximately 1 second to cool down per shot, and the more time taken lining up shots allows for a steady stream of accurate fire without overheating the ICE (Internal Cooling Element).
  • When the ICE is fully overheated, the Talon will automatically open up and eject the spent ICE. This allows for a slightly faster reload speed.

Trivia

  • Much like its cousin, the P-4 Senator, the Helldiver wielding the Talon can spin it around in their hands by pressing and holding the reload button for a few seconds.
    • This also occurs occasionally when switching to the Talon from another weapon.
