Needle Beam

Overview

Needle beams are precision beam weapons used in the Lensverse, in both ground and space combat. In the former, the Galactic Patrol is known to mount them on helicopters, whilst on warships they are used in battle to cause a local failure in the enemy ship's shields and destroy key internal systems, such as weapons or the Bergenholm inertialess generator.

Needle beams appear as continuous beams that radiate plenty of light and heat.

Firepower

Unfortunately there are very few examples of needle beams being fired, making firepower hard to quantify.
