In that IM2 scene I psoted, he's blasting through the drones with his repulsor blast. IIRC, in Avengers he might have been using a concentrated beam of his repulsor to cut and seal the steel tubing when he separated Stark Tower from the grid. I'd have to watch the scene though.Fair enough.
Well I guess that settles it then. IM's repulsors punch/burn through steel but they don't damage Loki. So we really don't know if his lasers can damage Loki. They might, but from what I've seen it's highly doubtful. Plus those androids were pretty weak, even Warmachine's artillery was slicing through them. I do think the lasers can harm Loki though. Maybe even leave a streak of singed, wounded skin (at best) or a red line of irritated skin (at worst).
Come to think of it, I think IM's best chance at damaging Loki is grabbing a sharp weapon or projectile and throwing it at Loki or try to stab/slash him with it. I mean, there's got to be a reason why the Agardians all use melee weapons despite there being proof that they have energy based weapons. The Asgardians pretty much tank energy blasts, ballistic artillery, and explosives but they seem susceptible to getting stabbed and slashed. Then again that's Asgardian steel and weaponry (or Frost Giant icicles) so it might not work with human made steel. Still worth a shot though incase his weapons fail to take Loki down.
One thing I can say in IM's favor though is that he's proven faster on the draw than Loki. His repulsor beams are basically just point and shoot. Both Thor's lightning and Loki's power staff need about a second to shoot (in Thor's case sometimes it's longer).
