Thing changes much when the pilot has "critical hit" perk. Most fighters (tier 1-3) are one hit for Asmodeus so killing something with two times greater damage is really a waste. You can score more critical hits and kill more targets in the same time with a rapid firing weapons.
Asmodeus is good for experienced pilots (without "critical hit" perk) when the chance of hit is high. In all others situations I prefer pulse lasers.
