Weapon · WeaponShotgun2★Beam Scatter is 9th of 40 weapons by attack, at 558 against the 1,400 of Prototype Shotgun.

At 20 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 4,257,100 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Ancient Civilization PartsWhere to Find Beam Scatter
Beam Scatter is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
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 |
|---|---|---|
 Beam Scatter Ammo | ×10 | Bio Battery ×1, Paloxite Ingot ×3, Soralite Ingot ×2 |
Schematics That Unlock Beam Scatter
Beam Scatter is not learned from the Technology tree — you need a schematic for it. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.
| Schematic | Rarity | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|
 Beam Scatter Schematic 2 | 2★ | Treasure map digs (tier 5), Recycling Decayed Ancient Relics, Recycling Dormant Ancient Relics +5 more (grade 1/5/6) |
Alternatives and Upgrades
Step up from here and you get Core Eject Shotgun at 575 attack; step down and it is Beam Scatter at 533. That gap is the honest measure of whether an upgrade is worth the materials right now.
