Samus battles it in several chambers within the [[Impact Crater]], and Metroid Prime becomes increasingly aggressive and uses more attacks the more Samus damages it. Metroid Prime's weakpoint, its head, is vulnerable to the [[Beam]] and [[Charge Combo]] it is currently using, which changes in accordance with the color of the markings on its exoskeleton. If Metroid Prime is purple, it will be using and be affected by the Wave Beam; yellow for [[Power Beam]]; white for [[Ice Beam]]; and red for [[Plasma Beam]]. It will shift weapons in an attempt to avoid attacks. Metroid Prime is invulnerable to the stun effects of all weapons and combos except for the [[Ice Spreader]], which will briefly freeze it. Sometimes Metroid Prime will try to ram Samus and she will need to use her [[Morph Ball]] to evade it. After Samus defeats Metroid Prime's exoskeleton, it falls down a long shaft. Samus follows it, and Metroid Prime's core essence attacks her.

===Essence of Metroid Prime===

While in its core form, Metroid Prime attacks with large shock waves; it's also capable of becoming invisible to the normal light spectrum and spawning a variety of Metroids. None of Samus' normal weapons can damage Metroid Prime, but by standing in pools of Phazon it generates Samus can enter [[Hypermode|Hyper-Mode]] to power her [[Phazon Beam]] and use it to defeat Metroid Prime.
