Beam Scatter
Weapon · WeaponShotgun0★A beam weapon built for close quarters. It throws compressed energy out in a wide, scattering blast.
Beam Scatter is 12th of 40 shotguns by attack, at 508 against the 1,400 of Prototype Shotgun.
Nothing is crafted from it — it is an end product, so anything you make is meant to be used rather than banked as a component.
Details
At 20 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 2,933,640 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.
Beam Scatter Crafting Recipe
Crafting it takes 110 materials across 4 types.
Where to Find Beam Scatter
Beam Scatter is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
Every Tier of Beam Scatter
The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: attack runs 508 to 609, a 1.2x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.
| Rarity | Item | Attack | Durability |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0★ | Beam Scatter (this one) | 508 | 950 |
| 1★ | Beam Scatter | 533 | 1425 |
| 2★ | Beam Scatter | 558 | 1900 |
| 3★ | Beam Scatter | 584 | 2850 |
| 4★ | Beam Scatter | 609 | 3800 |
Ammunition Beam Scatter Uses
Beam Scatter fires Beam Scatter Ammo, and nothing else — running dry mid-fight is the usual way this weapon lets you down, so keep the recipe unlocked before you rely on it.
| Ammo | Yield | Craft cost |
|---|---|---|
| ×10 | Bio Battery ×1, Paloxite Ingot ×3, Soralite Ingot ×2 |
Alternatives and Upgrades
Core Eject Shotgun sits just above it at 517 attack — only 9 more, close enough that it is a sidegrade rather than an upgrade. The next real step is Beam Scatter at 533; below it is Energy Shotgun at 482.
