Compared to a standard Fusion Rifle, the Sleeper Simulant has much more range and accuracy. Instead of firing seven individual bolts per burst, it only fires one. It has the pinpoint accuracy of a sniper rifle (though it uses a low-zoom sight), which is something most heavy weapons lack, and is capable of precision damage. Each beam fired has virtually unlimited range as well as no damage falloff, meaning that the damage inflicted, either at close or long range, will be all the same. On the subject matter of damage, the Sleeper Simulant inflicts extremely high damage per shot, making it a devastating weapon to use against bosses, and can even penetrate closed [[Shrieker]]s. In the [[Crucible]], it will kill any Guardian in one shot, even if that opponent has a damage-reducing Super active, such as [[Hammer of Sol]] (an Arc or Void [[Sword]] block, however, will keep a player alive). The ricochet of the laser can even come back and hit you if you aren't careful where you aim it.

In ''Destiny 2'', Sleeper Simulant is classed as a [[Linear Fusion Rifle]]. It has an extremely limited ammo capacity of 3 shots and a reserve of 6 more (for a total of 9) but inflicts massive [[Solar]] damage on precision hits - upwards of 3 to 4 times its baseline damage - depending upon the user's power level, target's power level, and weak point struck. It excels at quickly disposing of powerful opponents, especially those with Solar-based shields; [[Hive]] [[Wizard]]s and [[Cabal]] [[Centurion]]s are especially vulnerable to it, as it can easily blast through all of their shield and most of their health in a single shot. However, it's very weak against enemies with no weak spots such as Cabal [[Thresher]] Gunships.

In [[Gambit]], this is an extremely powerful weapon against both Primevals and opposing players, the latter of which will instantly die to one body shot. While its ammo gained from heavy ammo crates was reduced in 2.0.5, it is still an effective weapon, although it competes with [[Queenbreakers' Bow|The Queenbreaker]].
