Split Beam Rifles are a type of Ground Weapon. Their primary fire method shoots a beam of energy at a target.
They also have a secondary fire mode that shoots a high-powered beam that hits up to three targets in front of the player in a narrow arc, but at a long range. These shots have the ability to deal a large amount of bonus damage if the target(s) is exposed.
Depending on the type of energy used, these weapons usually come with a 2.5% chance of applying a specific effect to the target, unless otherwise stated.
