The Personal laser defense is a module that can be inserted into modular armor, spidertrons, and tanks. It provides a basic laser defense system.

It automatically targets and fires at nearby enemies, and, unlike hand-held weapons, doesn't slow the player down when firing. It consumes power after it fires (to recharge), so it doesn't necessarily need personal batteries. Stacking multiple personal laser defenses in the modular armor provides more lasers to attack at once. Each shot costs 50kJ of energy; as the shooting speed increases through upgrades, so does the power required to keep firing.

The personal laser defense will fire at enemies nearby even if the player is inside a vehicle.
