Wave Troopers are Space Pirates featured in Metroid Prime. Unlike standard Pirates, Wave Troopers are equipped with a weaker variant version of the Wave Beam that was reverse engineered to use against Samus along with the Power Beam, Ice Beam, and Plasma Beam.[1] A design flaw renders Wave Troopers vulnerable to the Wave Beam.[2]

Wave Troopers are found only in the Phazon Mines, mostly on patrols. They are among the Pirates that the Omega Pirate summons for reinforcements.

Space Pirate armed with Wave Beam technology.​ Space Pirates have reverse-​engineered several of your weapons,​ including the Wave Beam.​ A flaw in the design makes these Pirates vulnerable to their own Beam weapon system.​ These weapons are inferior to your Chozo-​designed originals,​ but still quite potent.[2]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • In the NTSC versions of Metroid Prime, Samus can only damage Wave Troopers with the Wave Beam and the Wavebuster. In other versions, Samus can kill them instantly with Power Bombs.

Command would dearly enjoy turning Aran's weapons against her. We believe we can implement Beam weapon prototypes in three cycles. Aran's Power Suit technology remains a mystery, especially the curious Morph Ball function. All attempts at duplicating it have ended in disaster; four test subjects were horribly broken when they engaged our Morph Ball prototypes. Science Team wisely decided to move on afterward." —Space Pirate Data (Metroid Prime)
