I liked using that in the endgame of Prime 3...it was almost evil specially when ya did it the other way. "Oh look I can grapple u. DIE THE MOST PAINFUL DEATH I CAN THINK OF RIGHT NOW!" *grapples and then pumps energy into target causing them to overload and explode* I felt so evil doing that...
... That battle could go on forever... Either way, so his energy is useless in this one. You still have to fight the equivalent of the devourer's power cut in half.
Originally posted by S121 Yea. The Nova Beam will be very bad for Zonmari. It's the most overpowered weapon in the game. I think its from the third game, but I can't remember.
for some stupid reason I thought it was just called the Plasma beam again...which was in the 1st one. But yea, Nova was in Corruption.
"The Nova Beam is a high-frequency beam used in the Pirate Homeworld's mining facility. The Space Pirates had developed it as both a weapon system and to be installed in mining operations involving Phazon ore. Samus Aran stole the Beam from the Main Cavern in the Pirate Mines, shutting down the Mining Cannon that was cutting and extracting Phazon deposits in the facility.
The Nova Beam is designed to be used in combination with the X-Ray Visor, another Pirate device. Using the X-Ray Visor allows Samus to see through Phazite, and the Nova Beam allows Samus to pierce it to attack points concealed beneath. The Nova Beam plays a key role in the battle against Omega Ridley, as Samus Aran must use it to shoot through Omega Ridley's Phazite armor to damage his internal joints. It is the last beam Samus obtains in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. The Nova Beam is similar in function to the Wave Beam from the 2-D games, as they are both able to pass through walls (though the Nova beam can only penetrate Phazite). The shape that the Arm Cannon takes as it stacks the Nova Beam is also the Arm Cannon's beam shape when equipped with the Wave Beam in Metroid Prime.
- Damage : Very High (Exceeds the power of the Plasma Beam in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption). - Effect(s): Passes through Phazite. Can be used in conjunction with X-Ray Visor. - Special uses : Shoot Through Phazite; Open Green Doors; Welding; Melt Ice"
Now if she could only use the hyper beam...but that would mean phazon.........hm...
EDIT: now I know why I was confused, there was a plasma beam in corruption, that's why I remembered the Nova beam as Plasma beam.
Phazite is indestructible, the nova beams just says "LOL no" to that anyway. And let's not forget the Wave beam~ that was a fun beam ( 'w') homing and ability to pass through glass...though In Other M abilities like that stacked and her plasma beam went through glass. so glass and phazite. top it off with super bombs and a grapple beam that can absorb or overload energy of a target. Samus has the arsenal....
Oh and OP screw attack from Other M. Can't forget that.
