why is fleetway's laser dps so low compared to tripwires???

Like, I feel like tripwire could instantly wipe out any characters health in a matter of seconds. Even without the AOE damage, she could probably wipe out metal with a focused beam. But with fleetway, his laser just doesnt do anything. Once when i was playing fleetway, sonic had been charging peelout so i used laser of destruction. I had the laser FULLY ON SONIC the entire time, and he only got down to like 40 health. MAYBE 30. This could just be not true, but if this is these devs really suck at balancing. Like this is a new low for them that i didnt even know they could reach. They give the character with ZERO startup to their laser like 5 dps but for somebody with health, thats standing in place, and has a super long charge up, he gets like 0.5 dps.
