Durability (number of attacks before breaking) Damage per attack (damage per projectile) The Gatling laser can fire a total of about 7,495 times using standard packs, the equivalent of 32 reloads, from full condition before breaking. The Gatling laser's model includes a large metal pack that appears on the back of anyone using it. Considering the -10 DT effect from max charge ammunition, the Gatling laser is highly effective against medium armored enemies as well.

It can be raised further to 28 with ED-Ecated upgrades from the Divide. Its damage can be raised to 23 with focus optics and the Laser Commander perk while using max charge ammunition. When used with max charge ammunition, even deathclaws can easily be killed with this weapon. The Gatling laser is effective against unarmored foes such as cazadores, night stalkers and feral ghouls. Like any energy weapon, the Gatling laser automatically ignores 2 DT while using regular electron charge packs this value raises to 5 with electron charge pack, over charge and even to 10 with electron charge pack, max charge.

It consumes ammunition at an equally incredible rate, depleting a full battery of 240 electron charge packs in just 8 seconds. The Gatling laser achieves a high DPS by firing multiple low powered lasers at an incredibly fast rate of about 1,800 rpm. It deals very high damage per second (DPS), particularly when used with a high Energy Weapons skill, focus optics mod and max-charged or over-charged ammunition. This weapon has a Strength requirement of 8 to use effectively and uses electron charge packs as ammunition.
