== Overview ==
The [[Luminoth]] began by experimenting with the idea of overloading Dark creatures with the [[Dark Beam]]; however, this failed, so they moved on to developing the Light Beam, which proved to be a far more effective weapon against the [[Ing]]. As with the other ammunition beams in ''Metroid Prime 2: Echoes'', [[Samus Aran|Samus]] can charge the beam when out of ammo to fire a normal shot. The Light Beam shares similar properties with the [[Plasma Beam]] from ''[[Metroid Prime (game)|Metroid Prime]]'' and ''[[Metroid Prime 3: Corruption]]''. It uses the same [[Arm Cannon]] shape as the [[Wave Beam]] from ''Metroid Prime'' and the [[Nova Beam]] from ''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption''.


== Description ==
The Light Beam can activate dimensional rifts on [[Dark Aether]] and causes great damage to Dark creatures. It can open White Doors and also has the ability to energize [[Light Crystal|light crystals]] and beacons, expanding their radius and damaging any [[Ing]] within.
