The '''Light Beam''' is a [[Luminoth]] designed weapon featured in ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]''. Similarly to the [[Plasma Beam]], it sets enemies on fire. The charged Light Beam, known as the '''Lightblast''', fires a blast similar to that of a {{wp|Shotgun|shotgun}}. The exact spread of the blast is different with each shot. When locked onto an enemy, the Lightblast will home in on their location. {{Samus}} can use this homing effect to knock [[Dark Samus]] out of her [[Boost Ball]]. | The '''Light Beam''' is a [[Luminoth]] designed weapon featured in ''[[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes]]''.

The Luminoth created the Light Beam after their failure with the [[Dark Beam]], which was designed to overload the [[Ing]] with dark energy. The new weapon proved far more effective.<ref>{{cite|Our studies of the Ing revealed the source of their attacks as dark energy. We built weapons to use this energy, thinking it could overload energy targets and eliminate them. We soon learned our error, as the Dark Beam was not of great effect on the Ing.
