Unlike the [[Light Beam]] or [[Dark Beam]], the Annihilator Beam is effective against both light and dark enemies. It has a rapid rate of fire, slightly slower than that of the [[Power Beam]]. 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]], 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>

The Annihilator Beam can open portals to both [[Aether]] and [[Dark Aether]]. Shields with a light or dark polarity can be overloaded by it. It also can supercharge [[Light Crystal]]s into [[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.
