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'', 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'' and ''Metroid Prime: 3 Corruption'', and uses the same [[arm cannon]] shape as the [[Wave Beam]] from ''Metroid Prime'' and the [[Nova Beam]] from ''Metroid Prime 3: Corruption''. | 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.

The Light Beam can activate [[dimensional rifts]] on [[Dark Aether]] and causes great damage to Dark creatures. It can also open White Doors. It also has the ability to energise [[Light Crystals]] and Beacons, expanding their radius and damaging any Ing within. | The Light Beam can activate [[dimensional rifts]] on [[Dark Aether]] and causes great damage to Dark creatures.

The [[Sunburst]] is the [[Charge Combo]] for the Light Beam, it can be acquired from the Grand Windchamber in the [[Temple Grounds]]. It creates a slow moving sphere of light, which is effective against the slower Dark Creatues. | The [[Sunburst]] is the [[Charge Combo]] for the Light Beam, it can be acquired from the Grand Windchamber in the [[Temple Grounds]].
