Laser Rifle: 60avg (7 shots per turn)
Heavy Laser: 85avg (2 shots per turn)
Heavy Plasma: 115avg (7 shots with no movement whatsoever)
60*1.5=90
85*1.5=127.5
115*.7=80.5
Taking into account the massive armour on a Sectopod (142 front, and around 90 rear), the Heavy plasma doesn't even do damage most hits, with the Laser rifle being slightly better (10 more beyond armour). The Heavy laser actually has a use here. Shoot it in the back from a distance with a sniper and possibly oneshot it. :bye:
