Zergritch, you should no better,

Have two questions for the theorists among us: THEL:Tactical High Energy Laser, a joint US-Israeli development for ballistic defense. When the high energy laser pulse hits a missile, it creates a shockwave which is what destroys the missile, not the heat of the weapon. Her weapon utilising a similar effect is perfectly sensicle. :)
 * 1) What kind of a weapon is Mercy sporting? One would think it's a laser, but it doesn't seem to be. It didn't burn away the rocket launcher, and took two hits to destroy a crossbow. Plus it didn't melt away a metal tonfa, just broke it in two.
