<br> '''T2 Pulse Laser Crystals'''

The Tech 2 crystals for pulse lasers are Conflagration and Scorch. Conflagration does the most damage of any crystal, at the cost of a 30% tracking speed penalty and a 25% greater capacitor usage. Scorch has a damage only slightly lower than Imperial Navy Multifrequency, but ~~has a huge~~ 40% increased optimal range, at the cost of 25% tracking. ~~Despite its extremely high~~ damage, Conflagration ~~is little used~~, ~~as its penalties generally makes Imperial Navy Multifrequency preferable.~~ Scorch~~, meanwhile, is extremely popular, as it allows pulse lasers to deal very~~ good damage ~~out to~~ stunningly long ~~range~~, especially at the battleship scale.
