Satellite Beam
Satellite Beam
Line“Delivers an attack that deals 189% the damage of Braver to all targets in a straight line.
— In-game description
Satellite Beam is an action unlocked at level 1. It is available for Machinist. It hits all targets in a straight line with x3.5 the damage of Big Shot. Ranged LB3 has a cast time of 4.5s and an animation lock of 3.7s. This renders the user unable to perform any actions for a total of 8.2s. Ranged LB3 does more damage than Braver, more damage than Bladedance when it hits 2 targets and more damage than Melee LB3 when it hits 2 targets.
Upon activation, the Machinist begins communicating via linkpearl, teleporting in a large flying turret that takes to the sky. Upon completion, the Machinist gives a ready signal to the turret, which drags a laser along the ground in a line; the marked area then explodes after a momentary delay.
- Players require 3 full bars of limit break meter to use Satellite Beam.
- Satellite Beam was introduced in Heavensward (3.0).
