Overview

In-game description

Attaches to a weapon. Provides user with a guiding laser and reduces weapon sway.

Steadier aim is what you pay for. Its own text says it reduces weapon sway, and you feel that most while holding an angle for a long time: lying on a rock above a monument with a bolt action, waiting for someone to step out of a doorway, the crosshair stays where you put it instead of drifting off the doorway.

Pros

Cons

Less sway while you aim
Many players say it also tightens the spread of SMGs like the MP5A4
Pairs with a sight on top, so you do not give up your optic

Needs a Level 3 workbench and a piece of tech trash for every one
Uses the slot a weapon flashlight would take
The visible beam can point back at you

Tech trash is the real limit. Early on you get only a trickle of it, and other Level 3 crafts want it too. So build lasers for the guns that actually leave the base, not for every spare rifle in a box, and pull the laser off before you hand a gun to a teammate who keeps dying.
