The '''Annihilator Beam''' is a weapon of advanced [[Luminoth]] [[Luminoth Technology|design]] featured in ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]''. It fires a blast of both [[Light Beam|light energy]] and [[Dark Beam|dark energy]] that can home in on targets without locking onto them first.

==Properties==
Since it combines the energies of the [[Light Beam]] and the [[Dark Beam]], the Annihilator Beam is effective against enemies from either Light or Dark worlds. It has a rapid rate of fire, but it is slightly slower than that of the [[Power Beam]]. Regular shots will home in on enemies, making it effective against fast foes. The [[Charge Beam|charged]] Annihilator Beam, known as the '''Disruptor''',<ref name=Notes/> fires a blast that does not home in on enemies, but similar to the charged [[Wave Beam (Metroid Prime)|Wave Beam]], is capable of stunning enemies. It is also the only weapon capable of destroying [[Lightbringer]]s.<ref>{{cite|They are immune to most weapon fire: only a burst of matter-antimatter can destroy them.|Logbook|[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]}}</ref>

Due to its hybrid nature, the Annihilator Beam can open portals to both [[Aether]] and [[Dark Aether]]. It can overload shields with either light or dark polarities, as well as unique gray shields only vulnerable to its own fire. It also can supercharge [[Light Crystal]]s into [[Light Crystal#Super Crystal|Super Crystal]]s that attract [[Ing]] to their death. Used in conjunction with the [[Echo Visor]], [[Samus Aran|Samus]] can deactivate certain sonic devices, such as [[Echo Key Beam System]]s.

The Luminoth champion [[A-Kul]] used the Annihilator Beam, but it was obtained by the Ing after her death.<ref>{{cite|The strongest weapon of our champion is in the hands of the enemy. It fires a blast of light and dark energy, and has no equal. Find it soon!|[[O-Lir]]|[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]}}</ref> It is also the primary weapon used by [[Quadraxis]], who is capable of firing both normal shots and Disruptor blasts. [[Samus Aran|Samus]] obtains the Annihilator Beam after she destroys Quadraxis.

==Sonic Boom==
{{Main|Sonic Boom}}
The [[Sonic Boom]] is the [[Charge Combo]] for the Annihilator Beam. It fires a rapidly moving blast of sonic energy that tears enemies apart.

===Samus's Notes===
"When out of Light and Dark Ammo, you can charge the Annihilator Beam to fire a normal shot. The Annihilator Beam has a high-powered sonic aspect when fired, which can be used to manipulate sonic-powered devices. Annihilator Beam shots are very effective against both light and dark enemies. Charge the Annihilator Beam to fire a Disruptor blast. The Disruptor costs 5 Dark Ammo and 5 Light Ammo to fire."<ref name=Notes>{{cite|When out of Light and Dark Ammo, you can charge the Annihilator Beam to fire a normal shot.
