Value: (see table below)

Beam Arrays fire a series of average damage beams across a 250° arc. Their damage will fall off with distance to the target. Dominion Polaron weapons have a 2.5% chance to reduce all power levels of the target by -25, as well as a 2.5% chance to cause extra damage shields.

Obtained

This item is obtained from “Boldly They Rode”, from the featured series The 2800.

Since this item is not unique, players can obtain it more than once via episode replay. Replaying this mission at higher levels will grant a level-appropriate Mark version of this weapon, up to and including Mk XI.

Modifiers

All Dominion Polaron Beam Arrays are obtained at Rare quality and always come with [CrtH] [Dmg] as their modifiers. Unlike other dual proc weapons, the Polaron proc does not come at the cost of a modifier, giving this weapon, effectively, a free effect over others of this quality.

Once upgraded to Very Rare and Ultra Rare a Dominion Polaron Beam Array will receive a third and fourth standard modifier:

Standard Modifiers

• Acc: +10% Accuracy
• CrtD: +20 Critical Severity
• CrtH: +2% Critical Chance
• Dmg: +3% Final Damage

Epic Modifier: All energy weapons upgraded to Epic quality receive:

• Ac/Dm: Accuracy and +6% Final Damage

Notes

• Although this is a hybrid Polaron-Tetryon weapon, a [Console - Tactical - Tetryon Pulse Generator] will not affect it. This is due to the fact that this weapon does Polaron damage, and only includes the Tetryon proc, while a Tetryon Pulse Generator boosts the Tetryon energy type damage.
• This weapon was formerly known as Phased Polaron Beam Array, and was changed in the December 21st 2012 patch. Their ability still refers to them as such. Phased Polaron weapons are now a separate hybrid weapon type introduced with the release of the Dominion Lock Box.
