Disadvantages:
- Innate Radiation damage - less effective against shields.
- Low Slash and no Impact damage - less effective against shields.
- Damage ramps up from 30% to 100% over 0.6 seconds when firing. After firing stops for 0.8 seconds, the damage decays back to 30% over 2 seconds.

Notes[]
- The Cycron's beam has a maximum range of 24 meters.
- The Cycron's Radiation damage doesn't proc instantly like other elemental based weapons. Instead, it procs Radiation after it ramps up for a certain period of time.
