His self-preservation habit even dictates his attitude towards Decepticon leadership power-shifts: he basically allies himself with whoever's in charge at the moment, a loyalty that can vanish almost instantly once the reins of power change. A sufficiently big threat will also send him screaming off for the horizon at top speed. Should his weapon's energy reserves start running dry, he starts running for the hills. He much prefers this "hide and sneak" tactic, as to his core, Laserbeak is a coward. On occasion he's even played the role of assassin, striking quickly at unsuspecting (and particularly vulnerable) targets, and vanishing in a flash in the chaos following the attack.

He has also been known to serve as an interrogator, using his lasers to carve up helpless prisoners to extract anything and everything they know. His chosen role is that of the spy, lurking in unseen corners and inconspicuous perches, snatching up any useful information he can to relay to his superiors.

Laserbeak is not usually found on the front lines of battle. Recognizable as the one who does not cannon-blast Omega Supreme.
