This weapon is meaner than near any beam in FreeSpace 2. Capable of taking down anything in its path in one or two hits, this is what made the Lucifer so dangerous. This is described as a "Flux Cannon" in the Lucifer's tech description.
THE gun, the meanest, most destructive weapon in FreeSpace, period. The incredibly rapid refire rate, designed so its hacked trails would look beamlike, means that it outdamages anything and everything.
The FreeSpace Port made this into a beam weapon, but in retail FS1/2 it's actually a turret munition with an invisible head and a very long tail. In other words, it's a laser shot hacked to look like a beam.
