I have I think 4 characters right now and not one of them has a laser sight. Does anyone even use laser sights? I mean they give +1 instead of the +2 from smartlinks and I guess they can be combined with tracer rounds in automatic weapons but that seems to be the only thing going for it. Smartlinks allow faster reloading, and firing around corners mostly. I guess there can be other creative uses but very little is comming to mind.

Lasers are +100 and can be switched between weapons. Smartlink is +500/+1000 for goggles/cybereyes to go along with the image links that anyone with a commlink has and +400 each weapon.

So, how many of you actually use laser sights on a regular basis and why?
