Mining Laser
The Mining Laser is a tool used for breaching tunnels in the mining process.[1] In battle it can break through rocks and power armor with equal success.[3]
Overview
The Mining Laser can be highly effective when modified and used as a weapon, though, especially by irregular forces such as the Genestealer Cults. For example, Dvarlock pattern Mining Laser, founded and identified by Tempestor Gulack of the Kappic Eagles, have been modified so it can blast the hole through a metres-thick bulkhead with a single pull of a trigger. It also features three hand-grips, indicating its use in combination with a tertia pattern servo-arm.[1]
Heavy Mining Laser
The Heavy Mining Laser is a heavier variant of the standard version, used on Goliath Rockgrinders.[2]
