Ion Beam

The is a top tier basic weapon capable of hitting multiple enemies at once along the length of its beam. Ion Beams have a long cooldown rate however once activated stay on for a considerable length of time.

Workings
cause damage to each enemy that is in contact with the beam per frame. When firing Ion Beam's rotate slowly toward the target at a set rate and are affected by the ships rotation. Ion Beam's continue to fire for their firing cooldown even after target destruction and will lock onto a new enemy once in range.

Each target hit will take the full damage dependent on the frame timer.

=Tips and Tricks= =Tiers=

Tier 1
Channeling the raw power conduit through a series of magnetised condenser prisms creates a directional stream of ion energy. This high power weapon burns through multiple enemies.

Tier 2
High strength offset magnetic containment fields allow us to push the ion cannon even further, increasing damage significantly.

Tier 3
Enlarged prisms allow the use of larger tracts of power through the conduit, amplifying the turrets output.
