Overview[]
The LF-4 is an ultra elite laser cannon introduced on 12th of August 2011. It used to be one of the best lasers before enhanced LF-4s got introduced into the game. LF-4s legend withered, mostly due to the fact more powerful weapons were introduced over time, and LF-3 laser got buffed, matching the power of its successor.

Tips/Trivia[]
- The LF-4 was, for a long time, a running joke within the community of Bigpoint making the game too damage based and money milking.
- This joke aged like an old wine, with the introduction of Prometheus Lasers, unstable modules, restabilizing, creating the Shield Pen Era where shields become futile.
- You used to need 36 LF-4s upgraded to level 16 to be considered as Ultra-Elite. Now you need 36 Lvl 20 Prometheus Lasers to get close to such prestigious community-created rank.
- Bigpoint accidentally killed the LF-4 with an update to the LF-3 that made it deal exactly 1.25 more damage towards aliens than the LF-4, questioning the need for the LF-4 lasers.
- You don't need to enter PvP with LF-3s, since you're not far from getting bursted down, so LF-3 remains a solid pick.
