The Apocalypse has both a range bonus and laser cap use bonus, not a damage bonus. Normally that would imply a projectile weapon fit would be common, but the laser range bonus can translate into a damage bonus, allowing pilots to use shorter-range, higher-damage crystals from farther away.

The Apoc is the most common Amarr PvE ship because range is so important in missions, and the cap use bonus lets it fit a good tank more easily, freeing slots for heat sinks and armor hardeners. With Amarr Battleship 4 or 5, the Apocalypse can often fit pulse lasers and deal good damage at beam laser range. (Indeed, t2 pulses with scorch are excellent weapons for PvE Apocs)

For PvP, the Apocalypse is an outstanding fleet sniper, able to hit hard out to 200km+ ranges. It is, however, less common in shorter-range PvP engagements, where the damage and tank bonuses of the Armageddon and Abaddon make those ships more popular.
